My Little Stand
4078 Altamont Ave. V8Z 5H2 Victoria, BC, Canada

With things opening-up a wee bit, these were done-up for a church this weekend! So exciting!!

Somebody’s getting a little extra ’n today on their special day!!

The stand is out today on this beautiful sunshiny long weekend! Kick-off to summer!!!!

The Allium are blooming and have a lovely subtle sweet scent and will be in arrangements out on the stand later today.

These were some of the last flowers from Mother’s Day that I had just thrown in the teacup. I haven’t given them any care at all and the flowers are still so pretty. I hope your Mother’s Day arrangement has lasted a long time too.

We’re busy turning over gardens from spring to summer flowers so the stand will not be out this weekend but if you need something, let me know!! Hoping that the plants we’ve moved this week survive the relocation!’ Have a wonderful weekend!!

Two tea cups not picked-up thst are up for grabs!! Let me know if you’d like ‘em!! Or one!!

It is now spoken-for!! Thank you!! I have one purple basket that was ordered and not being picked-up today. If you would like it, let me know!!

It was so much fun working in the garage yesterday! It gave me a chance to meet everyone coming to pick-up their teacups. Thank you so much to everyone who came yesterday and to those who still need to pick theirs up today. My is full!

Out bright and early by the front door this morning. $60.

These sweet little cards arrived just in time for you to add to your Mother’s Day flowers!’

All the ones that are going out tomorrow.

So just like that we’ve switched gears. The gardens have been put to rest for the year and now it’s time to start thinking about.....I’m not going to say it out loud but YOU KNOW WHAT. Here’s a fun fact. I like to repurpose as many things as I can. All my vases come from thrift stores, garage sales, friends, family and some vases even get returned so I can repurpose them again. I have also started collecting Christmas tins throughout the year for the peppermint brownies. Here is my collection this year. I like to decorate the kitchen with them but by the time Christmas rolls around, the shelves will be bare!

The rain has come as predicted but not before we got another 254 bulbs into the ground. It’s so awesome having a helper this year!! He asked how many bulbs were enough. When you keep digging to plant one and you keep finding one there already...that’s when there’s enough. I think we have officially got enough now. I’m so excited to see what it looks like in the spring.

There’s never a down-time. If you want to make beautiful arrangements in the spring and summer, you have to start planning now!

The season is coming to a close pretty soon. Come get some of the last beautiful blooms for this year!!

A trip out to the thrift store in Sidney means one thing! Time to start prepping for . If you’re looking for ANYTHING for Christmas, The Beacon Thrift Shop is totally decked-out, is very well organized, clean and Covid Friendly!
