The FLOWERPOT Cafe' II - Join us for a cup of Flowers!

I;m so glad you brought your work into our cafe' ! please stay here and be our Artist in residence.
I love the weirdo one! and the chairs! Is that flower Hibiscus? lovely rich colours and a superb composition!
LOVE IT ALL.
Ok I supose I won't mind if you go to the Artisans cafe as Karma suggested, but WE want you!!!!
Thanks for brightening up our Cafe, I'm sure Traci will find the best spots for them.
TRACI< make sure you put the spotlights on the weirdo one!!!

we will be bringing you thankyou treats and it's free drinks.

Sharran, I am so glad you posted your pictures. I get to brag to everyone, SHE ALREADY SHOWED SOME TO ME IN A D'MAIL :^P. I have been so crazy trying to do 1000 things at once, I haven't been able to write back. I will D you this evening. The others I haven't seen are amazing and I have just the right places to hang them. The piano is.......well, fantastic sounds to blaise'. I think I need to go to the dictionary and find some new words to express how much I like the really exceptional items. I am honored that you will let us hang them in here. Weirdo is good!! I like weirdo thingys. That is a wonderful painting.

I LOVE rescued furniture. That is my area of art. Antiques and restoration. I will have to get some of mine and show it to you.

As far as arranging goes, I am trying to learn. Learn with me. I have done two simple ones. I have got to get some supplies such as oasis foam, floral wire and, oh, flowers. I love learning, and they give good ideas on your arrangements. Have you seen the thread for simple arrangements? Karma had me move one flower and it made the world of difference. There are no bad arrangements, just works in progress.

Good luck Terri and don't forget pics. I am going to have a double expresso and jet.

Later.

Traci, I was thinking the same thing last night when I first saw Sharran's artwork last night. I felt so honored to be the first to view it in the cafe. I AM jealous that you got a private viewing!

Dear Karma, the next one will be just for you, promise.

You will be so surprised!! But thank you, you all are very gracious.
Later...
shar

OK, Karma, just for you.....sitting on a bookshelf, will get it down for you.

Terri, the first flower that I sent was one of my red daylilies....my favorite. This last one is who knows...I made it up as i went. I like to do contrasts.

Sharran, another piece which is resplendent (like that word). My favorite is the first, followed with a tie by all others. lol.

Terri, when you get back, tell us how it went.

Karma, beat ya here!!:^P

Great word, P....
Love it!! thank you.

In a rush, later.

Sharran, I LOVE my painting. GORGEOUS!!! Thank you. Now, everyone look away. . .have to find a way to sneak this one out.

I've got bragging rights now.....got a private viewing of one of Shar's paintings. I'm not telling what it is. . .but another GREAT piece. Thanks Sharron! My friend Milissa, is a floral designer/floral artist. She paints mostly flowers. Here is a pastel she did with my favorite colors and one of my favorite flowers. . .cymbidium orchids. I will have to introduce her to this forum. She will love it.

Sorry the pic is so bad. . .it's custom framed.

It's beautiful...I too love the green! I am sure you can already tell that.

do encourage your friend to take a look and share her work with us. i hate to hang around on these walls all alone. those of us who love flowers MUST have an outlet that involves flowers just to get ourselves through the winter, ya think??

sorry about the caps on this keyboard....it is new and they don't cooperate. I could take time and go back and re key...but that's no fun, so it will stay as is.

LOL, I thought you were emphasizing MUST. I took down her email address to give her a link to the cut flower forum, but now I have to go find it. Will go right now before I forget again. See ya later.

Yep I was.....easier to use with the caps lock key in place....

"MUST have an outlet.".......as in obsession.

Later, too....

Hi! Great things are happening in here!
I'm going to sleep all day tomorrow, then come back and see!

Maybe a subconscious slip of the fingers!

Morning! What a lovely day! How are you all?

Gosh, the artwork in here is very chic, high class stuff! Thankyou Sharren and Mellisa (I like the sound of her) imagine having a REAL floral designer in here!!! That would be fantastic.

Traci, #/.'2'#2"%*# resplen,.;]//267683'/# dent what? arty lingo booooooooo!!!!!
Didn't you like your cake for supper last night then?

Karma, thanks for showing the pastel form mellisa, it's lovely, hope you can get her to join us!
I'll be bringing a new magazine in for you later, join me for a cuppa!

Karma, that painting is wonderful. Very nice friend you have there. Wish some of my friends were artists and gave me paintings.

Terri, it is not art lingo. Here is the formal definition.

adj. Splendid or dazzling in appearance; brilliant

Better?

Thanks Traci, Sorry,I don't understand big words sometimes, thanks for the explanation.

Went to walmart this evening and strolled by the flowers. Picked up, put back, picked up, and finally put back. Why do the have to be sooo expensive????

If you lived next door, I'd give you flowers everyday Sweetie!

SO now you decide to come out to play! when I should be in bed. It's 3AM here. this always happens! wish we were
nearer in time zones!

I'm bringing in the new Flower Arranger magazine, there are some nice one's in this issue,and some good articals.
These shoes are absolutely resplendent, don't you think?

The winter edition

contents!

I love shoes!

Love the shoes, terri....are you planning to sleep tonight??

On my way to Nashville early in the morning...will see you folks tomorrow night when I return. You all have a good evening and a good Friday.....don't get into trouble while I am gone!!!

I would say the are more multifarious and innovatory. But that is just my opinion.

Good night Sharran!!! Terri, go to bed.

PP, you are getting tooooooo far out there. You trying to impress or something?? Don't even have a dictionary handy.

OK, so I am impressed!!

Nite to both of you.....sweet dreams.

Thank goodness I have a Thesaurus online. HAHAHA!!!

Share the knowledge Babe!

Traci, you are on a roll with all your big words. I swear I was not here before I dmailed you last.

I emailed Milissa, but she hasn't responded. She's not into all these new electronic stuff, so I may have to pick up the phone and give her an old fashion call.

Thanks terri, for the new editions. I won't have time to look at them in depth. Trying to finish all the new replies tonight and go to bed. Peyton is sick and the Doc put him on antibiotics for his ear infection and breathing treatments. She scared me a bit when she ordered for an RSV screening and chest x-ray. Thank God the tests were negative. I got dh home to help. . .but here I am. Shame on me.

Hi terri, we posted at the same time. Got the red letters!

Oh Sharr have a lovely day! maybe I will maybe I won't......sleep that is!

Karma, sorry to hear Peyton is unwell, hope he gets well soon and you can rest.
They pick up all kinds of bugs when they go to nursery!! What out for nits,...yuck!

Thanks Terri, he's still eating and sleeping pretty well. I think his pedi was being cautious or maybe she joined a new group of drs she had to make them some money?

Hahaha, I don't even ask anymore.

Just mention the word garden and will get Terri rolling!

garden

Head lice dear, haven't you heard of them?
