"Earth laughs in flowers." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Hamatreya"
Nothing says summer like a backyard barbecue with bright colors and beautiful colors. When we were on vacation last week (hence the lack of posts), we went to my cousin's wedding reception. Besides the fact that my Aunt and Uncle have a yard and garden that should be featured in Sunset Magazine, they also added a few creative touches to their backyard barbecue wedding reception. At each rectangular table were a couple of Juice Box Flower Vases full of bright flowers. All she did was clean out a juice container, cut off the top, add some water, and add a bouquet of your favorite flowers. So simple, so economical, and so adorable! You could use these juice box flower vases for Baby Shower decorations, barbecue decorations, Mother's Day gift, and I'm going to use it as a little hostess gift this weekend for a barbecue we are attending.
Be inspired, get creative, and have fun!
