I love to play around photographing flatlays.
Flat lays are a collection of things that appeal to you and laid out flat on a background that will showcase your display the best possible way.
I couldn’t bring myself to throw out the dying roses from a beautiful bouquet sent to me by my late Auntie Gladys’s sister Pat.
So out came the brick effect wallpaper I use as a back drop and I spent a happy half hour playing around creating different arrangements.
I’ve wrapped them now in tissue paper and I’m pressing them under a stack of books.
I do love to fiff and faff about.
What do you love to fiff & faff about with.

I keep my valentine Rose from Paul, until there is nothing left. There is nothing wrong with messing around it passes the time. I am always moving things around and around until it finds a happy home in my home
ReplyDeleteI'm absolutely loving your flat lay creations, and I agree that those wilted roses were too gorgeous to throw away. I've kept the rose heads from my wedding bouquet and they're still in a drawer somewhere, lovingly wrapped in tissue paper! xxx
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of flat creations, but your are stunningly beautiful. Roses are really lovely even though they have wilted.
ReplyDeleteHere the climate is very dry and I can hang flowers up and they will dry. (without having to press them) and then I can put them in a vase if I wish .
I read your story about the silk dress yesterday. What a lovely story! When hubby and I got married for the registry office (before our church wedding)I wore a silk skirt in the same pattern and colour as your silk dress there. It had a slightly larger block but the colour was the same. It was many years ago and it doesn't fit anymore of course....
Have a lovely weekend,
Hugs,

Gosh I do love this!!! And I love roses too. So artistic.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Lynn!
ReplyDeleteA lovely girl I knew used to photograph vases of flowers and post them on Instagram every day, they got more and more attractive the more they wilted and perished, a bit like my favourite kind of buildings! xxx
