I have always believed that flowers are a gift from God, and they should be appreciated at all times of the year.

Here are some pictures of floral arrangements and fountains that I have done at different times for our home or friends.

These will be archived soon as new pictures of flowers will be done for the new home soon!

This is an arrangement that I recently did for our friend Alice.  She is someone very special to us and is also teaching us Mandarin Chinese.This is the other side of the arrangement.This is an arrangement that I did for St. James Cathedral in Seattle.  I do flowers there as that is the church that we attend.

 

This is an antique celadon footed bowl that we recently purchased and I thought it would be nice with some spring flowers in it.Just another view of the arrangement.  This is between two chairs in our living room.When we went to the Home and Garden show this year I found this amazing basket and decided it would be great with tropical flowers in it.

 

Another view of the arrangement with an old cloisonné bowl on our dinning room table.  The bowl is a "Thousand Petal" bowl.This is an arrangement from 2002 that I have not changed yet.  It is in an antique ikebana brass container.  This is an arrangement that I did for our first apartment.  The flowers I gave to a neighbor when we moved into our current home, but I have kept the container as it is one I purchased in Portland before Rob and I got together.

 

These windows are next to our front door.  They were done by our friend KB.  One thing to note of these windows, is that they are not like your typical  stained glass with all of the metal running throughout the window.  But, instead they are large sections of glass.  The nest is actually 3 dimensional and has actual bits of moss covered wood in it.  These are very hard to photograph, but I wanted to give you what view I could of them.
