What’s in Your Vase? Spring Flowers for Your Home

Spring is such a busy time of year, but there’s always time to cut some flowers from the yard. Fresh flowers are a great way to bring the outdoors inside.  Let’s take a look at some of the arrangements we’ve enjoyed in our home this spring.

Bright Yellow Tulips in a Vase

These bright yellow tulips are just so pleasant to look at every day.  They are especially cheerful on a gloomy, rainy day.

Lilacs in a Glass Vase

Lilacs are blooming, and their scent is very strong this year. We cut ours right before a big rainstorm.  We just love the purple color of these lilacs.

Purple Lilacs in Small Green Pitcher

Just a small sprig of lilacs in the bathroom brings a fresh clean scent to the room.  We love the look of flowers in a glass pitcher.

Spring Floral Arrangement from Your Local Florist

If you need a quick way to brighten up a room, you can also swing by your local florist for a fresh floral arrangement.  This mix of salmon roses and pink daisies lasted two weeks on our dining room table.
