Sometimes in life, the simplest things are the best. I like uncomplicated days filled with beauty. Days that make me smile and fill me with peace. Flowers help me de-stress, and a simple sunflower arrangement helps to brighten any day. Sunflowers hold a special beauty all their own. I don’t like to detract from their…

I don’t consider myself much of an artist but I do like to tinker with creating pretty things. At least, I hope they’ll be pretty when I’m finished with them.
