LA Flower Mart

The Original Los Angeles Flower Market

Los Angeles, CA 90014

(213) 627-3696

You can get more info on their website here.

Look at that sky! We don't see these clouds in Los Angeles! Rain coming?


Janet and I went to the Original Los Angeles Flower Market.

Wear something warm if you go. They are open to the public - Check their website for hours and additional information.

Hustle & Bustle- I love the flower mart!

 You can find orchids in every color.

All kinds of flowers, greenery and anything you may want.

Holiday time in Los Angeles.

That's me in the background!

The visit can be overwhelming but take your time, the market is BIG.

Someone(a florist, maybe) is ready to check out!

 You can find containers here.

 I picked up some greens for the door!

How I adore paperwhites. 
 They smell so good!

Lilies are long lasting and make the house smell wonderful.
Lilies last longer with the stamen's pulled off.

On the Bar, some lilies in my favorite lavender container. 

 Paperwhites on my patio desk.


When you are in Los Angeles, don't miss the LA Flower Mart.
Go early because it closes early. 
It is the most wonderful place to get flowers for any occasion.
The Mart ships flowers all over the world. 

Happy Hunting, dear readers!


Love,


Peggy

Guess what came in the mail?

Joni at Cote De Texas had a give-a-way from LoveFeast Shop.

 And guess what? I won! Can you believe it?

I won a pale pink acrylic antler & 6 white velvet pumpkins.

I used the pumpkins as place card holders, as Joni from Cote De Texas suggested.

Aren't the pumpkins great looking?

Gardner is my son's name

All ready to eat.

Lights, camera, action! 
After all guys, I do live in Los Angeles!

Here is a great picture of the pink antler!

You've heard me say before, every one looks good in candle light. 

 The antler looks great on the fireplace mantel!

 I WON-I can't believe it!!!!

Thanks to Joni, Chris Ann & Kristin from LoveFeast Shop!

I went to the LoveFeast Shop's website and they have fabulous items.
You still have a few more days to shop till Christmas! 
 Check out their website here.


Love, 


Peggy
