QUOTABLE FLOWERS

 These are flowers that arrived before Thanksgiving, and I added a few sayings. 

“A flower does not use words to announce its arrival to the world; it just blooms.” 
~Matshona Dhliwayo~
“A flower does not think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms.” 
~Zen Shin~
“Every flower blooms in its own time.” 
~Ken Petti~
“The flower that follows the sun does so even in cloudy days.” 
~Robert Leighton~
“Happiness held is the seed; Happiness shared is the flower." 
~John Harrigan~
“The very best relationship has a gardener and a flower. The gardener nurtures and the flower blooms.”  
~Carole Radziwill~
“She sprouted love like flowers, grew a garden in her mind, and even on the darkest days, from her smile the sun still shined." 
~Erin Hanson~“Do something today that will encourage you to blossom.” 
~Unknown~“We don’t ask a flower any special reason for its existence. We just look at it and are able to accept it as being something different for ourselves.” 
 ~Gwendolyn Brooks~

Have a great weekend my friends.

  2. It's not really a vase, I should have called it a planter.

  7. all of us can uses the quotes about flowers to apply to our own lives. they are perfect. the flowers are gorgeous and it looks like they came from several boquets not just one. I LOVE the container, at first i thought it was a pumpkin, then a half a pumpking and realized it is the lid to the pot.
