…favorite things friday: boxwood ball

February 13, 2015 by christen | 6 Comments

I love having bits of green in my home, but I am hopeless when it comes to keeping a house plant alive. Fake plants look fake. Preserved plants look a bit better. I have some preserved boxwoods and moss balls scattered about my home.

I always keep my eye out for them because they can be hard to find. Just found these for at Home Decorators.

Preserved Boxwood Ball – 3 sizes.

Green is also a beautiful, little hint of spring!

PS – Prayer works. Keep them coming. Sweet Bensten has moved to camp rehab and is doing some moving & speaking. Miracles happen in real life. God is good. Bensten is healing. We are breathing again.

    So happy that God is working in B-man’s healing. Prayer will continue. Loved the video. I cried tears of joy when I saw it.

    You are amazing! Adore your fun and authentic personality on YouTube! Many prayers for your family. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home and your talent. I can’t stop painting! I would love to know the type of greenery that you used in the huge urn filled with vintage items (on the blue table). Are they grape leaves? I would love a resource for shopping high quality preserved greens.
