Christmas in June

Yesterday I had to go to into town so I decided I better get some shopping done considering its a 30 minute drive to Collierville. I stopped at one of my favorite gift & home boutiques in Colliervilles Historic Town Square called Natural Creations. Inside I found a french country looking floral arangment made of wheat and I thought it would look great on top of my hutch. Well the owner Tim Miller advised me it was a custom order for a lady out of Brentwood Tennessee, but he could make one for me. His price was so unbelievably reasonable, I'm embarrased to say it. I'm definitely going back to get this done. Well.....we started talking and it comes to find out that he is a full blown Floral Designer as well. I was pleasantly surprised because I had been through his store many times adoring the florals, not knowing they were custom. He then showed me a magazine called MIDSOUTH the December 2006 Christmas issue and advised me it was his cutom florals on the cover! I was surprised because I have the same issue at home and have kept it for two years. It is one of the best issues i've seen so far, so inspiring. As it turns out he does custom work for clientle all over the country. He does not have a web site at this time, so im sorry there is no link I can supply my readers.

I myself love floral design and have put most of my homes florals together myself. My florals even have their own luggage when I travel, no joke! I am a serious collector and appreciate talent when I see it. If any of you are ever in the Collierville area you should definitely check out the Natural Creations boutique. Its located at 92 N. Main Street, Collierville TN 38017.
