Send yourself flowers, just because you’re so pretty!
Filed Under Eat and Drink, Good Cause!, Sip and Shop
The Shop Tart and her sister-in-law spotted the most gorgeous bouquet of flowers at the Gourmet Shop last week, a creation of the Blossom Shop just down the street, bien sûr!
Striking, n’est-ce pas? The flowers were a gift to the waitress in the background, who had just returned from a European tour. Much to her disappointment, the Shop Tart’s sister-in-law had not, in fact, just returned from Europe, and was instead looking forward to spending the weekend alone while her husband worked. She felt sure he meant to send her flowers to apologize, so she did it herself.
The Shop Tart and her sister-in-law headed to the Blossom Shop to see if one stylish bouquet could inspire another. While they waited, The Shop Tart took a quick peek around. In addition to gorgeous flowers, the Blossom Shop is chock-full of really fab stuff! There was nothing fishy about this lovely bud vase.
A group of white accessories is always trés chic, don’t you think? Love this monkey and the flowered vase behind it.
There were plenty of flowers left for a gorgeous bouquet for her sister-in-law.
She even wrote herself a note (Shop Tart Tip: When sending flowers to yourself, always include a thoughtful note!)
“Sorry I have to work all weekend. I hope these flowers make you feel better. Love, G.”
She had the flowers delivered to make them more special (and in the hope she might forget she had ordered them - mothers can do that - their brain cells are shot.) Some husbands are just so thoughtful!
