Good morning, well here in NY we got socked by a blizzard of epic proportions! We are covered in white everywhere you look! Guess be careful what you wish for....I was moaning and groaning about the lack of snow, well mother nature certainly delivered and showed me whose boss! I had to share some pictures because we all know everything looks prettier in snow! We were supposed to leave for Boston today but clearly we are not going, bummer but better to be safe. Hope if the snow has impacted you, you are safe and staying inside!
This batch was taken as the storm was cranking up.....
And then this is what we woke up to this morning........22 inches later!

This was my original post.....so it turned into a 2 for 1!
If you have been following me for a few weeks or for an entire year, by now you know I do love my orchids. They bring elegance and grace to any space they enter. Then you add a beautiful planter and the effect is dazzling. Every few months I go on an orchid binge and buy a dozen or so. Truth is even though they are pricier than a lot of other flowers,they actually end up being one of the best flower bargains because they last so long. Most cut flowers or flower plants last 2-4 weeks.
On average my orchids last I would say about 3 months, sometimes even more. So its a great investment that requires little upkeep except for water and a good amount of sun and a lot of love. I adore them in every room and my love for orchids is one reason why I buy so many planters! I don't think you can ever have enough:) Any fellow orchid lovers out there? I buy them from a local florist but have also picked them up at the Home Depot greenhouse. And you know what, they are really nice looking, good quality plants. So here is a little recap of my orchid buying day.....
It all starts with an island (a messy one) filled with all my containers. I would do this outside if it wasn't 10 degrees!
More containers and unloading the orchids........
First pair ready to go to powder room.....
