Beautiful Fall Bouquets.

I just found this beauty of a bouquet at the Treasured Petal blog. I just love the vivid combination of colours an especially the anenomes....beautiful!

Here is a bouquet I did last weekend for a beautiful bride, Amanda, last weekend. I love the fall colours she chose, and the great mix of different flowers she chose.
She was lucky to have a beautifully sunny Saturday to have her outdoor wedding just outside Awenda Provincial Park in Penetanguishene. I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures!

I've been having fun this week preparing for some beautiful fall weddings. Both are full of variety and texture and wonderful colours.

Both weddings will be happening at resorts in Muskoka this weekend. I'd love to see it all set up and ready to go, but unfortunately this time, I'm working in the studio. 30 centrepieces...12 bouquets....head table arrangements....urns....pew flowers...bouttonieres and corsages...I think I get the fun part!

Wish the pictures were better...but you get the idea.

A little bitta fall.

If I don't think too hard about what is to follow, I think Fall is my favourite time of year.
I love that we're back into a routine. I love the cooler temperatures (although that pretty much describes our entire summer).
I love the colours of fall and all the great natural things for decorating. I've done the flowers for several fall weddings and they are spectacular...so much variety.

I had fun making these caramel, chocolate, skor bar apples last week. We handed them out at Sam's birthday party...and they were a hit. I couldn't help but think about how great these would be at Christmas too. So simple...roll in melted caramels (unwrapping them is a real treat!), when cooled, roll in melted chocolate chips. While still warm, roll in skor bar chips, or oreo crumbs, or nuts....mmmmm.


With the abundance of tomatoes from the garden this year I tried my hand at canning. I have never done it before. We all really love salsa here so that's what I picked...hot and mild.
Turned out great...especially the hot!
