One of the joys of moving to a space with lots of wildflowers has been the picking. Rushes and grasses in the fall, boughs at Christmas, pussy willows in the spring and flowers throughout the summer. The walking around and gathering, picking and choosing the right combination has been just as enjoying as the bouquet itself. This holds true for the kids too. Often their bedside has vases filled with daisies.
We were inspired by the flower cubes over at 5 Orange Potatoes. We used muffin tins to make flower bouquets for the bath. Very quickly every made their own combinations of petals (and a raspberry or two!), filling the freezer with every ones own labelled supply. In fact it was baths all around once they were frozen.
