It's my birthday!!!

It was my daughter's and my birthday yesterday (yes we have birthdays on the same day!) and I didn't make a cake for her or me.  I make cakes for friends and family but sadly, never one for my own.  How silly is that?  So anyway, here's a cake for me by Sweet Petal Bakery on Etsy.  Enjoy your weekend!

Very Succulent Weddings

I absolutely love succulents for weddings.  It always looks stunning as a gray color in a yellow and gray wedding.  Need any good references for how to achieve the perfect balance of flower to succulent?  Check out  www.tendingtoit.com . This site is one of the most creative and visually stunning ones out there!

SAIPUA is also my GoTo site for flower ideas.  Located in Brooklyn, New York, Sarah of SAIPUA is such a talented artist for putting together tussles of wild flowers, blooms, and greenery and making them work in perfect shape and color harmony.
