Flowers







Feeling a little flat after a stressful few days, I treated my self to a quick trip into town to see the David Jones Spring Flower Show. 














I have no idea why it makes me so happy. The perfume hits you as you walk in the door, and seeing so many people enjoying the displays makes me happy to be part of this community, even for a fleeting moment.













This funny tradition officially  marks the start of Spring for me.










Linking with #FloralFridayFoto  #GardenAffair and #DND because I realised I would miss the David Jones Flower Show because we're in lockdown....

  10. Lovely photos, I wish that I was good at arranging flowers, when I recently carried some flowers that I had arranged into the living room my husband asked if I had dropped them on the way!#pointshoot@_karendennis
