Flowers? Still time for an arrangement at Carlson’s for Mother’s Day

Carlson’s Floral and Gift at 625 Dobbs Ferry Road in White Plains always has wonderful arrangements for all seasons and occasions.  I was there shortly before Easter and though the offerings I have photos of are probably no longer  seasonal  I thought I would share them here as I somehow never had a chance to earlier.

Its always fun to see what Nancy Schellhas has on display.  Even if you are not looking for a gift, it is a wonderful place to get ideas for your garden. If you are thinking of selling your Westchester home, curb appeal is absolutely essential and Carlson’s is always chock-o-block full of ideas for enhancing curb appeal and making a home “pop”.  Even if you aren’t moving  - or even thinking about moving – enhancing your curb appeal can be fun. Its a gift that most of us can readily give to ourselves.

Carlson’s is located on 625 Dobbs Ferry Road in the White Plains PO.  Just off the Sprain Brook Parkway on route 100B.

Phone # for hours and information:  914-684-6084

 

As to the photos – I was experimenting with photoshop filters on these.  I felt the flowers really lent themselves to these effects – and heck – it was just plain fun for me to do them this way.

Hi Debbie, 

I got some Cyclamens from them about 10 years ago.  They were intended for my aunt at Christmas.  But there was a terrible ice storm and the Cyclamens never made it to her home.  I ended up keeping them and they are STILL going strong.   And I thought the plant wasn't made that I couldn't kill.  I love plants, but they don't truly seem to like me. 

Hi Barbara,

Nancy has such a great eye for arrangments.  Its amazing.  Just going in there gives anyone with a yard tons of ideas.
