ilove...flowers

I used to think creative people sat behind a desk and just thought up new wonderful things. I can't do that so i considered myself not a creative person. After working in the fashion industry for many years and working with many so called " über creative" people i saw that everyone got their inspiration from somewhere and that's how it works :). It's not stealing, it's getting inspired. So when i saw this.....






















And this...






















And this....


And this....


I did this...























I bought the bottles at the thriftstore, about 50 cents each, and just made sure that the type of glass was the same. Than i bought some different flowers for about 5 euro.It made me happy and creative.

Later i saw this....


It's a workshop from Design Sponge about  wild flowers, even more inspiration.

  1. I Like what you have done using the bottles better than the photo from Design Sponge.
    I like the simplistic way you have displayed them and the use of one colour that always looks stylish in my eyes.
    Hope this finds you well and enjoying a lovely weekend...x

  3. like Emma, I think that your display is much MUCH nicer than the Design Sponge photo.

    Do I spy the Beautiful Painting in the background? How much more time do you have left to keep it? When it goes back, will you just leave the hanger in the wall as a sad reminder of it's absence? I'm missing it already!
