There is a quiet little heartbreak that happens when you walk past a vase of flowers that has clearly seen better days. A few drooping stems, cloudy water, petals on the table. Suddenly that bright spot you loved a week ago now makes the room feel a bit… tired. You don’t always want to toss the whole thing and start…
Fresh flowers are one of those small luxuries that make a home feel cared for.
