Well a few firsts this week….I was able to fling open my windows to a rush of pre spring fresh air and our landscapers showed up to cut the grass yesterday! This means spring is really here:) The grass is not green nor are there any flowers but in my mind, spring is alive and well!

Had a busy but productive week, a bit of fun, some entertaining for an out of town relative and lots of work….but I love it so it doesn’t feel like work (well at least most of the time:) The porcelain presale had a tremendous response and though some items are sold out there are still some up for grabs (it ends tonight) so click here if you missed it.

For any Broadway enthusiast, if you haven’t seen Matilda you must. It was one of the best musicals I have seen in a long time, the talent was ridiculous and the stage sets beautiful and captivating. Been a little disappointed with a few other shows I saw so this one was a happy surprise. Relaxing weekend, went to a goodbye party for a friend moving to the west coast, had dinner with friends last night and looking forward to a relaxing day today!

1 FLOWER RUSH Caution- DO NOT read this if you are a floral fanatic:)? I always say I think I was a florist extraordinaire in my former life and I am not writing off being one in this life quite so fast either:) I LOVE flowers, they literally make my heart beat faster.

One look inside my home and it is clear, I have great faux but always have real flowers around the house as well especially spring and summer. They just? make me happy, and my husband better not complain because it could be jewelry:) Though I would be the poorest florist because I would work for free and take jobs just as an excuse to go buy more flowers, that’s how much I love them:)

So I am super excited to be going to the famous NYC wholesale flower district the week of March 21st with “an insider”.? I was there? years ago and remember even then being giddy over the abundance of beauty but my love and obsessions with beautiful flowers has grown tenfold since then.

The market starts early (5:30 am and normally wraps up by 10:30). I just don’t know however how I will be able to control myself and kind of feel like I should have been more strategic and planned something around what I know will be a flower binge, maybe they will last till Easter?? I mean don’t these pictures from the wholesale flower market get your heart racing……

5. MY NEW FAVORITE SHOES! Comfortable shoe alert….got these two below? which I had posted about last week and let me tell you, these are my new staples. They are so comfortable and look great. The flexible wedge is easy on the feet and they really work with everything. One thing for the first pair- buy a size up. I am a 8.5-9? and ended up needing a 9.5 which was a first, they run small.? Got them in the navy and camel,? best part they are so affordable! Click here to find out more….

6. MONOGRAM BEAUTY. You know my feeling on monograms, they are a part of my every day life. I just love them and cannot get enough. This artist is sooo talented….Arabella is based in Australia.

I have admired and followed her exquisite work for a while. I am about to commission her to do a personal monogram which I will turn into stationery and cannot wait. Just look at how talented she is…way too good to not share! Click here to follow her on Instagram or here to visit a site to see more of her work and here on Etsy

7. GARDEN SEASON.? The garden season is upon us..yay! We have a small garden and though we reaped a decent share of veges last year, let’s just say there was a reason I wasn’t showing it off on my blog:)

There is plenty of room for improvement this year however.? I am already plodding and planning and these charts really help give me a head start. I also included some really great ideas for garden markers that are so easy, anyone can do them. Happy gardening!

Hellooo dear Tina.. I always like to start my Sunday with your beautiful post. You never let me down. The pics of all the gorgeous flowers and the handpainted sinks stole my heart today. I always find a couple of new people to follow on Instagram, thanks to you. Love the monograms too! Enjoy your Sunday!

Oh those flowers, yes I too am a flower fan and my heart DOES race when I see an abundance gathered together in praise of themselves! Lovely collection of inspiration dearest Tina! Anita

What a beautiful blog! I can’t think of a better way to start a warm pretty spring day than your 7 on Sunday. Thank you again .

Thank you for recommending the documentary Ballet 422 as part of last week’s Seven on Sunday. I watched it last night and enjoyed it very much. It was so interesting to watch all of the technicians behind the scenes using their skills to enhance the production. I especially enjoyed the costume and lighting conversations.
Seven on Sunday is my favorite part of your blog -thank you for all of the fun ideas!

Those flowers.. talk about over load! It’s tulip season in Seattle so I’ll be getting my fill then switching to peony’s and of course the hydrangea. Those English roses are lovely and I’m having such a difficult time finding them here unfortunately. The sinks are so pretty ~ little jewels!

Have a wonderful Sunday Tina!

Just beautiful!……….love flowers……..sinks……….all are jewelry for the home.

I developed a garden diagram that I love……..all boxed planters in geometric shapes for the bones with walkways in between. Four square boxes of 1 X 8 wood in 4 foot squares with a ten foot 2 1/2 diameter pole buried about two feet in the center topped with a wooden finial for a green bean tuteur. The 4 hemp strings are attached to the top base of the finial and are fastened to horseshoe shaped heavy wires buried inside each corner.
The blue lake green beans tendrils follow the strings to the top and are wonderful airy pyramids.
All the rest of the vegetables are in rectangular or triangle box shapes. I based this design on an old Martha Stewart garden plan years ago.

I look forward to Seven on Sunda you never fail with your gorgeous pictures. This week I adored your flowers and your table settings. I have a passion for dishes and your tables are always artfully set.

Absolutely stunning post !!!!!! Couldn’t have enjoyed anymore. I will be saving this one to look at many times. I thank you for all of your efforts in posting and sent with love as we can see. Have a wonderful week.

Hi, I live in South Africa and really love your blog and especially Seven on a Sunday! By the way the Monogram artist Anabella June is actually from South Africa and not Australia ?

I see “Seven on Sunday” pop into my email in the morning and all through Sunday School, Church, and Dinner (always out on Sunday…I mean I’m all dressed up and why not???) I anticipate some quiet time in the afternoon to savor your post. Happy Sunday to you 🙂

Hello dear Tina

Happy Sunday and a happy Springtime to you…my most favourite time of year by far, and you can guess it is because of the flowers!! I shall think of you at the flower market, a place I myself go to often .. aren’t we lucky
I think it is not just Monet who had to have flowers always and always, it is also you and I

I love all your instagrams, Katie’s topiary especially and the stunning monogram artwork. I hope that the sunshine will continue for you,
Sending love
Sallyxx

Gorgeous Tina, the flowers, the Sherle Wagner basins! I look forward to planting my herb garden!

Would love to have some recommendations of companies that make affordable markers for garden plants. I am not a DIY and would love to be able to mark a few of my herbs etc.

Oh, I love the Preppy Empty Nester. And I have her to thank for introducing me to you! I once went to the LA wholesale flower market but I don’t recall it having nearly the array of gorgeous blooms! Enjoy your outing!

Oh, the fresh flowers – like you, there is nothing that makes a home warmer and more inviting. As the queen of the perfect tablescape, I loved the blue and white so much, but I can’t even believe how much I love the creamy white…perfection! Happy Monday, Tina!
