Single stems in vintage bottles. Once the big bouquet is drooping, I take the ones that have a little life left in them, trim them down and place them each in a tiny bottle of their own. Seems to make them last a bit longer. And then it's easier to appreciate their individual beauty too.


Got another birthday cake to make. My son's 8th birthday is tomorrow!


Swedish summer houses over on Fine Little Day.

I do the exact same thing... eek each bloom out as long as possible. I love watching them change and fade.
