Remember grabbing handfuls of flowers for your mama? Those little dirty hands offering up short-stemmed, haggard blooms… 😂 Those are the memories moms cherish! Whether it’s a handprint, a drawing, or something handmade, it’s the thought that counts. 🌼
I headed out this morning with a lidless teapot I knew had purpose and surveyed my landscape. Inspired by my mother-in-love’s preferences, I made Minty Rose Tea Floral Creation that smells divine and brought me so much joy to create.
So, step outside, pick some flowers, write her a letter, draw something special — flex your talents! Make it uniquely YOU, because that’s the gift she treasures most. 💖
My mother has been gone a few years now and I so miss her. For those of you missing yours too— sending love your way.
