You’ll also receive $10 in PayPal Cash so that you can buy something super cute to sit beside your new bouquet!

Live Well… Be Fabulous will be opening a shop soon where you can buy these arrangements. The bouquets are based on our most popular series. So be sure and sign up to be first on the list to get details on an exclusive club where we’ll be making these babies ourselves.

I’ve received so many emails asking if I were going to begin selling the bouquets that we’ve showcased in our long running segment called the Super Cute Crafts Series. Since such a venture takes time and the right amount of interest to launch, I’ve decided to ask our lovely experts (aka all of you) a few questions on what you’d like to see in this service? So please remember to sign up for our LiWBF Fab Five (a bi-weekly recap of blog posts, book news, and special giveaways) that will launch at the end of this month. You’ll be the first one to know about the bouquets once the shop goes live.

What girl/lady/woman at heart doesn’t like flowers? I’ll be honest. I’m not one who typically drools over the traditional bouquet. But show me one like this one, wild and intriguingly arranged, and my heart melts in less than a heartbeat. LoL

The love of flowers was passed down from my grandmother, Nezzie Wall. After I bought my first home and was able to revive the plants outside our house, the ones everyone had pegged as dead, I discovered that my black thumb had suddenly turned into a garden fairy’s wand. It was like Grandma’s spirit had suddenly passed through me and left the legacy of her magical gift behind.
If it weren’t for my grandma, I would never have found the house I live in, or discovered and fell in love with the magic of gardening. I would never have published my first fantasy story based on the advice she gave me, a little tidbit about listening to the flowers. Live Well… Be Fabulous would never have been born and I would never have found so many cherished readers who’ve not only been great supporters of my literary ventures throughout the years but who have also become some of my greatest friends.

The flowers inside this bouquet represent each one of grandma’s favorite blooms. I chose a classic milk jar to hold the arrangement together in honor of the collection she owned and used as vases to hold her arrangements together. I guarantee that this bouquet will brighten up any rainy day.

So on the next rainy day you experience and feel like the world has you down a bit, I invite you to think the opposite… Instead, think of the rain as a sign that the spirits of the folks you love are sending you a reminder that their spirits still live inside your heart.

Good Luck in the Giveaway!
