Orange tulips and wild grass at my house. (above)
Sorry I haven’t posted in days. Had a rough week and wasn’t feeling well. Am back and better now.
I made this flower arrangement yesterday and thought you might enjoy – even if it is just for laughs!
Is this “arrangement” ugly or pretty? You tell me. I am leaning towards pretty in an ugly sort of way. 🙂
All I did was take long wild grass and wrapped it around the inside of a glass urn, then plopped in 20 orange tulips in various phase of bloom, and then threw in the rest of the grass. A disorganized modern classic floral arrangement mishmosh I think. Arrangement is a big word for these flowers as I did no arranging at all. I just put them in the urn and you can tell!
Here’s the only thing I will say…no matter how little you do with tulips or flowers they still brighten up a space and make me smile. So regardless if it is objectively ugly or pretty…these flowers hit the right emotional chord for me after a really rough and tumble week…
Still, I am interested to hear your amusing comments on these flowers though…need more laughs!
Hope you have a great weekend!

P.S. Go to the COCOCOZY FACEBOOK page to see some fab photos I took at a wonderful art party from Marine, A Contemporary Art Salon, created and hosted by Claressinka Anderson. Fantastic modern art in a wonderful environment!
Simply lovely! I make myself an arrangement at least once a week. Get’s me into a creative groove, smells good, changes the pace of the room and puts a smile on my face all at the same time.
Glad to hear you are feeling better!
Enjoy your weekend ★´¨)

Ummm….I’m on the fence. lol
I think it’s wonderful – very natural and whimsical. Jealous I don’t have those gorgeous tulips growing in my yard!
fresh flowers…how can you go wrong?! 😉 bon weekend!
I love it and I think its beyone pretty it is happy and creative, thats the best. I bought pink tulips and purple Iris the other day and they do bring a smile to my face!! That is what a flower arrangement should do in my book,Happy weekend,Kathysue
Glad you’re feeling better. 🙂 To me, tulips could never be ugly. I’m having a really great giveaway on my blog so please stop by if you have time. (It’s a really good one!) 🙂
They’re beautiful although my eye was instantly drawn to your great furniture piece, white walls and table runner. What an awesome room
I love it! Wild and free — just the way tulips and grass should be. Just the way we should be! Love the room and runner too. So glad to hear that you’re feeling better.
Exuberant – as tulips can be!
Coco I love it, tulips are a favorite and I adore the arrangement! Glad you are feeling better.

Not just pretty but perfect – a perfect reflection of how you were feeling. Truth is beauty!
I don’t know which adds more sunshine to all of us on a daily basis. The Tulips or your darling self, Coco.
I would have to go with dramatic! Those colours that vase…yes definitely attractively dramatic or should that be dramatically attractive!!!!!
Love the grass at the bottom, but not in the vase around the tulips. Maybe I’m not wild enough.
I think it’s very beautiful! I don’t see any bit of UGLY in it…
I have to ask about that amazing cabinet behind the flower arrangement — GORGEOUS! Where to purchase something like it??
Glad you’re feeling better! I love this arrangement on top of the table runner, so I’m voting pretty!
What an awesome room! Love the decor.
I like the idea of your arrangement, and how you bundled the grass at the bottom of the vase. Maybe bundle the tulips too next time, and throw in additional grass so there’s both a more organized and whimsical feel to it?
Wild thing, you make my heart sing…is what popped into my head when asked to comment on your arrangement.
Here’s to your health.
love the crate and barrel table runner. i’ve been envying that table runner in the clearance section.
Hey is it possible to have a page number in the blog ?
I have been viewing the blog for hours but i got to leave now. And i would have to go “older posts” several times to reach this page again.
