The Flower Room


I love this idea of having a special area with a large sink and lots of bench space to arrange flowers - something to add to the file for the dream house!!

  3. I would so love to have a flower/potting room with a large old wooden potting table, shelves full of interesting pots to use, bins full of wonderful soil and amendments, lights shining through large windows for inspiration, a huge old porcelain or cement sink.....oh to dream...

  5. I so hear what you're saying! Cutting stems and trimming leaves results in an utterly wet and dirty kitchen. Could we call it the "green room"?

  6. My friend is a florist and has a room just like this. I have to be dragged out screaming and kicking and could watch her making displays forever

  8. Absolutely divine - love the blue! It's similar to my old 'rustic' blue kitchen:

  9. Love this concept - imagine spending the morning arranging the flowers for your home and then sitting back with a delightful cuppa! Bliss.

    Heaven.

  19. Oh my goodness, I love that sink! Definitely a dream of mine to have such a room as well. Even if its to pretend its for flowers, and really just wash my daughter's juice stained onesies!! Ha!
