My absolute favorite client, who has pretty much been there with me since day one, is Christina. She's the kind of person that orders valentines' posies for her staff every year. This was her Valentines' present this year. The most beautiful vintage bottle with stop and a glorious yellow/green Cymbidium Orchid. It was one of my greatest memories of the day.

There is something so fresh about lime green roses with greens, whites and blues..

This was Saturday's hot little giftie.... 20 bucks all in.

a little birthday "pretty"....

sometimes, simplicity is best.

i love this lovely little side table that just came in.... $150 !!!

can't seem to let go of pink and red today.... tomorrow... its all yellow!!!

It's a couple of hours after closing....

I'm watching mindless t.v. and eating a burger.  sooooo glamorous.

I hope ya don't mind, but I think I'll take tomorrow off.  The day after Valentines Day is usually
pretty quiet. 

again, thank you for a wonderful valentines day. 

a moment to breathe... here are a few pics of what has been leaving the shop...

Happy Happy Valentines Day to you!!!!  Thank you for being such a loving customer over the years!!!  We really appreciate it.

Loving you...

(in whispered voice...  "just really busy"...)

some really beautiful fleurs left from our door today... had to order some more....

listen, just so you're aware.  i'll be open on sunday this weekend... noon till four and then on Valentines... 11 to 6ish!!

It's at this point....

that i start apologizing to my family, friends and colleagues (radio AND design)...  Valentines day is approaching.  It's a week away.  The snow may be tossing itself about, but the hearts of those in love are starting to ignite and warm.... 

I have a hell of a week ahead of me.  If you happen to be walking by our shop on Ossington on friday, saturday or sunday evening and you see me, lying face first on the floor, surrounded by petals with scissors in hand... knock on the door ...  please... 

happy love,

get your orders in as soon as humanly possible, if you don't and want to just drop by, i'll have ya covered.... 

Had an extra bundle of tuliips at the end of Saturday, had to bring it home...

love my Virginia Johnson quilt...  "thanks virginia"!!!

i thought you'd like to see some shots of our shop. so many of you are from outside of toronto, outside of canada really... so, here's our home on Ossington!!!
