Fleurs de Villes WONDER… what a delight;-)…

since January 15th I have done three volunteer shifts, visited four times with friends, and once on my own…

every time I went through the displays, I spotted more interesting details;-)…

we are so blessed to be one of the locations that Fleurs de Villes chooses to display at…

each year has been different than the previous one… it is also such a great opportunity for our truly talented Manitoba artists…

it was interesting to hear what visitors enjoyed the most on their visits, and how many felt it was nearly impossible to pick a favourite, as they were all special…

hope that we get the opportunity again next year…

I felt connected to three pieces immediately and by the end of my eight visits, I had voted for all of the three…

truly a gift;-)…

enamoured…

last week, when I visited Fleurs de Villes WONDER at The Leaf, for the first time, I was completely enamoured with the Aurora Borealis display…

it was filled with some of my favourite colours and just touched me immediately…

I was on a volunteer shift and got to see it in daylight (I started at 3, ended at 6), and under the lights…

since then I’ve watched a video about how it was made and learned more about it…

I also put up a photo on IG and got a note from Christine at Silver Heights Florist, the artist who designed and carried out this piece with assistance from others, advising she had a bouquet for me…

I picked it up yesterday and it has all the colours of the original display in it…

what a treat;-)…

if you have a chance you really should go and check out WONDER before it leaves…
