Yes, I am going to say it again, Love is in the air!  Valentine’s Day is just days away so gear up for some simple budget friendly flower arrangements that will sure to win many hearts!  Nothing says love like beautiful flowers!

Valentine’s Day also hold a special place within my heart.  I was married on Valentine’s day and about to hit my 14 years wedding anniversary on 02-14-18.   Everyone keeps telling me how lucky I am to have gotten married on Valentine’s Day because it prevents my hubby from forgetting our wedding anniversary!  LOL!  Yes, that’s the good part but the bad part is that flowers are so expensive during this time.  So after many years of receiving overpriced flower arrangements on my wedding anniversary, I decided to turn a new leaf and experimented with making my own flower arrangements using flowers purchased from my local grocery stores.  Rose Chic Flowers was born and the rest is now ancient history.

Enjoy and spread the love one flower arrangement at a time!  You can also follow me on Facebook and Instagram!

• 1 bundle White carnations – Arrangement #2
• 1 stem of Hot pink alstroemerias per arrangement

Supplies:

Here’s my final 2017 Holiday flower arrangement and my first 2018 flower arrangement both using my flowers in a box theme.  I thought I would save time by combining both flower designs into 1 blog by ending 2017 with the start of 2018.  One thing I do love doing is using bold and vibrate colors flowers within my flower creations.  All flowers were purchased from my local Krogers within the Dallas, TX area and the photo boxes were purchased from Hobby Lobby.

The most charming, faithful, forgiving and caring person you will ever meet, is your MOTHER. Never miss a chance to say a big thank you to her!  She is the reason you live and the reason to feel safe and happy.  There’s no better way to show her how much you love her by giving her flowers.

Mother’s Day is the busiest holiday for me! Lots of flower requests from friends and flower gifts to make for my son’s school. I hope you enjoy these flower arrangements and get inspire to create one for a special someone out there!  Enjoy!

LAVENDER THEME MOTHER’S DAY SMALL WRAPPED BOUQUET

MUFFINS FOR MOMS FLOWER CENTER PIECES

BOLD COLORS THEME MOTHER’S DAY ARRANGEMENT

This is my first time ever making gifts for Teachers Appreciation Day.  Since my son attends 2 different schools, Pre-K in the morning and Montessori at noon, I had 2 groups of Teachers Appreciation gifts to create within the same week! I ponder a bit on what to make trying to stay within budget.  Then I saw these cutes boxes at Dollar Tree and thought it would be nice to make a mini version of my Flower in a Box design.

So here they are!  All flowers were purchased at my local Krogers in Wylie and Plano, TX, the rosemary from my flowerbed, and the grey preserved moss from Hobby Lobby.  The cost came out around $7 per arrangement.
