These beauties are my Christmas...

These beauties are my Christmas flowers from Paul. I popped them in the vase on Christmas Eve which means they’ve lasted 10 days so far and are still going strong. I know he got them from Blue by Jan Park in Shifnal and they did a really wonderful job creating a really natural arrangement that is lovely and lasting so well. Are you wondering why I’m telling you this when I’m a faux florist? Simple, however much I love faux flowers, I love real ones just as much. I can see that Paul chose stems that I love as fauxs - veronica, ranunculus, astrantia, eucalyptus - which made the arrangement even more special for me. I think with a little careful tending these flowers may last at least another week and by then will have delivered great value for money. If I’d made this arrangement with fauxs, it would have been nearly as beautiful and would have cost more but it would still be looking as gorgeous next Christmas.⠀⠀⠀
