Happy Earth Day! How nice that the holiday falls on Flower Friday this year. If you live near southern Delaware, I recommend visiting Garden Shack Farm at 19884 Beaver Dam Rd. in Lewes to buy pretty flowers to plant for the occasion. The owner, Laura Kucharik, was kind enough to let me stalk her greenhouses with my camera last weekend.
The first perennial plant I am sharing are her creeping phlox flowers, aptly named "Purple Beauty." Not only is the photo available on spring home decor products through my Fine Art America shop, but Ogre and I are going to use it to experiment with making tile coasters! We plan to offer a coaster series of her flowers exclusively at Garden Shack Farm.
Featured Flower Picks:
First Spring Flowers • Purple Ruffled Petals • Anemone Blanda Macro
How To Plant Your Own Post for Flower Friday:
The only rule to play is that you can only add one link per week! The post doesn't even have to mention flowers, but only ones that do will be eligible for being picked as a feature next week. I will be sharing my flower image on other blog hops, namely Wordless Wednesday, and welcome all family-friendly links from fellow bloggers. Crafters can even link up an Etsy listing or other shop product! But if you want to promote a prize, please add it to my Giveaway Chest Linky instead to entice more treasure hunters.
Please follow my blog through any of the social media icons in the upper right sidebar to receive a reminder to return next week. Adding my button or a text link to your own blog and sharing to your followers is also a fairy appreciated way to help my hop grow.
