Mothers Day Bouquet

I know it's still a little while until Mothers Day (more so in the US) but I saw this on Facebook and it really caught my eye.

How can someone who really doesn't feel the appeal of cakes and does not eat cakes find them so attractive!!!???

What a lovely simple, cost effective Mothers day gift??

6 homemade iced cupcakes, a little crepe paper and some artificial leaves.

I LOVE this idea big time. I just don't know if my mum or mother in law would appreciate edible gifts like this.

I've always loved flowers and I do think that I have found a little talent in design.

Remember my wedding flowers?

 And the ones that did not get used as my first attempt?

 

All my own work!!!!

So I think that for Mothers Day this year, I am going to create something for my mum with some silk flowers. I'll get some sort of bowl or ornamental jug, some foam and some silk flowers to make into a feature.
