In late October, we carried one Hosting Flowers bucket into Brenham Antique Center. The owner found a pitcher she loved and knew right away: this is where the flowers go. Then we wandered the shop together, looking for vases and flower frogs with history. Each piece carries a story we'll never fully know.
She placed the flowers herself. No technique. No training. Just a pitcher she loved. The table looked like it had always been that way.
We love this shop! And they carry our local honey too.
That's the whole idea behind Hosting Flowers:
- Flowers pre-paired by color and shape, harvested close to your date
- Your favorite vases, the old ones, the odd ones, the one from your mother
- A few minutes of placing, and a table that looks like yours, because it is
Perfect for Dรญa de los Muertos dinners, fall gatherings and, quietly, the first Thanksgiving planning lunch.
Hosting Flowers: $175 per bucket. Softer colors, brighter colors, or let the garden decide.
