I went to
school for floral design once upon a time. I became an expert in all things silk. I learned to work with faux flowers
and plants and came to love them almost as much as the real deal. To this day I still have a tendency to use them more
often than not. Case in point, autumn decorations. Outside I use the real flowers,
but inside I prefer faux... less mess. Last year we had somebody clean out our garage and
all my fall arrangements, wreathes, etc. disappeared. Accidently thrown out. I was upset, to say the least. So I am replacing things slowly. I started with a singular pumpkin and vine of leaves. And
it has filled me with absolute delight. Do you find big or small things bring
you the most joy? And do you prefer real or faux flowers?
