Welcoming Spring With Anemones




I can't believe myself that I am writing about welcoming spring on February 27th! But it's not my fault - it's the sunny and super mild weather that makes me think of spring. Trees are burgeoning, snowdrops and crocuses are popping up on every green patch and the markets are awash with colorful blooms. Plus it came in pretty handy that the famous #2flowergirls Elodie and Inga were back this month with a floral topic - anemones.



This said, I rushed to the local farmers market and bought a small bunch of anemones. I think they are so beautiful themselves that I didn't feel any need to do additional styling around them. I've just put them in my concrete vase from Bolia and voilà, spring has not only sprung but also moved into my apartment.


To see all the floral inspiration of the #2flowergirls check out their wonderful Pinterest board. And why not join them too?

Happy Thursday everyone!

  4. I love their delicate wispy-ness contrasted by the vase. And I'm really jealous of your tray table...

  5. Anemones are such happy flowers, gotta love 'em ;) Those sprinkly branches you added, do they have a nice perfume? I had the same ones a few weeks ago in a bouquet and they smelled SO good. No idea what they are called, but their perfume is so delicious.

  6. Es gibt, glaube ich, nichts, was man schneller herbeisehnt als den Frühling. Da liegst Du ganz im Dauertrend :-) mit Deinen Frühlingsgefühlen am 27.02.
    Ganz nebenbei, sehr schön ist's auch um die Anemonen herum!

    1. Thank you, Helen. I must admit I have not been a regular anemones buyer, but I think this will change from now on. They look very pretty plus they keep up their beauty for quite a long time as cut flowers!

  17. Hej Igor,

    kannst du mir verraten, wie deine Wandfarbe heißt? Die Suche nach dem perfekten Ton ist ja nicht so einfach...

    Liebe Grüße
