On May Day

 Oh, how we love May Day! From the first time we celebrated this sweet holiday it was an instant favorite. The day always begins with May Day baskets for the girls. I'm still in awe of how beautiful they came out this year. These gorgeous papers became the most gorgeous cones. I daresay that they may be my most favorite yet! 
And the white flowers made them even more lovely than they already were. 
 Making May Day baskets for friends and neighbors. This year the girls decided that paper cones would be created and potted flowers placed inside them. 
They look so sweet on our shutters that it was almost hard to give them away! 
 Let the May Day basket deliveries begin! 
We were so charmed by these sweet baskets that we decided our front door needed one too! 

As always, we had such fun making and delivering baskets this year. We just love this sweet tradition and are glad to keep it going year after year! Happy May Day, friends! We hope your day was a lovely one! xo
