Spring and Flowers

Spring is my month. A lot of babies have been born during this season, a lot of weddings celebrated, a lot of songs have been written about it. I have a love hate relationship with Spring, I love the array of flowers that bloom... yet I hate pollen, my natural enemy. I am a sufferer of hayfever. Yep one of those people.

I had dinner catch ups with my girlfriend and sister last night, and to my surprise I received these bad boys. It's always lovely receiving flowers, they always brighten up your day or in my case night. It was quite fitting really a great way to start Spring, with a fresh bunch of flowers.

So I'm going to write a few tips on how to keep your flowers fresh as a daisy. My friends S and J gave me these handy hints, as flowers are suppose to last up to about 1-2 weeks if you take care of them....

* Change the water every 3- 4 days, and trim the ends

* Add a little bit of bleech to the water

* Or you can pop an asprin in the water if you don't want to use bleech

* Use a pen/ or something sharp to prick the the stems, to help water flow

If you guys have any other handy hints feel free to reply back!
