Flowers that will last forever

 

 

Sadly we will be traveling soon for a funeral.  My husband’s 56 yr. old cousin passed away of lung cancer and he never smoked a day in his life.

 

His mother (Mr. Brown Socks’ Aunt) is still alive at age 91.  She is just the sweetest lady and still has a big flower garden and grows Indian corn, bird house gourds and a few veggies.  My sisters in law asked if I would make a permanent floral arrangement that she could have and keep in memory of her dear son, Kevin.

 

 

Not sure why I thought she might like purple and green, but it just seemed a peaceful color combination.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The picture above shows a close up of the little furry pods I placed on the end.  I’ve mentioned before when I talk about flower arranging that it is always nice to have lots of texture and movement in the piece.

 

I hope she will like this keepsake.  It was fun putting it together for her while thinking of fond memories of Kevin.

I hope your day is going well.  Thanks for stopping by.
