June is crazy, isn’t it?
Between birthdays, weddings, graduations, field trips, kids exams, gardening, Spring cleaning, vacations…
Lets slow down, shall we?
I have a special weekend planned beginning with a visit from my oldest sister, Diane.
We call her Dido, and she makes the ribs I constantly pin here: Pinterest
She’s heading this way for our Mom’s 80th birthday 🙂
Should be very special!
If you have a special occasion this month,
maybe you could surprise your guests with this fun, and easy idea.
What do you think of this ” DIY Lemon & Lime Daisy Centerpiece”?
It’s so fresh, and cute.
Best of all, it took minutes to make.
You don’t have to use a wine glass.
You could use a clear vase, bowl, mason jar, or anything.
I actually tried a fish bowl, but it was too large.
Did you know that adding any acidic fruit into the water will keep the flowers fresh, longer?
It really works.
I used Daisies from a small plant I purchased at the grocery store.
I just clipped a few stems off and stuck them in the water after I placed my lemon & lime slices in.
Just be sure someone doesn’t mistake it for their cocktail. 😉

Here’s another pretty (and easy) idea…just place the daisies in a colorful bowl and let them float.
And one more…a couple years ago I used Daisies for our Easter table napkin rings.
Oh dear…lookie here.
All this talk about Daisies…”Daisy”, my Mom’s cat decided to show up!
What a Daisy she is.
We rescued her, and both my Mom and Dad treat her just like a little baby.
Before I forget…I recently posted these glasses on my Facebook page.
You can find my Facebook page here: FACEBOOK PAGE
You can find these $1 glasses at the Dollar Store (hopefully they still have them).
Well…I have tons to do before my sister arrives, so I better get my booty in gear out of here.
I can’t go with out wishing my Mom a Happy 80th Birthday!
Happy 80th Birthday, Mom!!
