Dendrobium peeking out of the message box
It has been great to receive photos from other people enjoying cut flowers - and we decided to continue to share some of what has been gracing our inbox (although I have a fun, unusual pick to share later today).
This series of photos are from Kenn, who is joining in on Chicago's cure and has really gotten into finding flowers every week for his cottage. Although he says his place is not ready for its close-up, he was happy to share the flowers he has bought over the past 4 weeks. Take a look at his other weeks' choices after the jump!
Dogwood and Queen Anne's Lace
Daffodils in glass jars
Hellebores and lilacs
In Kenn's words:
"I like reading your blog on Saturday morning flowers. I am a member of the Chicago cure, and have never brought flowers into my cottage until starting the cure. I am now addicted and constantly looking for found and very simple flowers. Attached are the flowers I have used during the four weeks of the cure."
These are beautiful and simple flower combinations (and great vase choices!). That orchid looks right at home in the message board box. Thank you for sharing!
I am sending a shout-out to all of you who bring home flowers to brighten up your home. Do YOU have some Sat. morning flowers to share? Let me know! You can drop me a line and some pics at matt@apartmenttherapy.com

Wow! The message box is really lovely, and the flowers are beautiful! I like the flower peaking out from the box.
I've been working on spring cleaning stuff and I think I will use flowers for the finishing touches...they can really add some life to a room!

The message box is incredible. It gives me ideas for my own home. The Dogwood and Queen Anne's Lace picture is charming. Nice choices of containers for vases.

Absolutely beautiful. I can't believe Ken had never bought flowers for his home before... he has quite the eye for it.

The message box is very cool. It looks easy to make...just find a plain old box and attach it to an old cutting board. Great idea! I'd like to try that.
