A few weeks ago I mentioned that I dislike flowers that compete for attention. The kind of flowers that, have an overwhelming presence. And that whilst taking the spotlight, mute everything else around them.

To me, a flower is more powerful, if its beauty speaks for itself.

I also prefer flowers that still look like they come from nature, and maintain an element of realism to them.

It’s kind of like that situation with makeup. Do you want a natural makeup look? Or do you want one that looks like you’ve caked it on?! So it’s kind of like that.

Today, I want to share with you, a florist in Adelaide that shares my views on flowers.

Ponder Posy is an Adelaide-based florist. It’s run by the talented flower and foliage artisan, Rebecca Trevitt.

Ponder Posy describes its selection of flowers, and how she celebrates their beauty as:

crooked stems that don’t fit in a vase,
broken leaves that let the sunshine through and
hand spun wildness for special events,
botanical installations and heart-filled posies.

Pretty neat ha?! Yep, these are definitely my kind of flowers!

I discovered Ponder Posy a few weekends ago, at a coffee shop called Local Crowd Cafe, located in the suburbs (Colonel Light Gardens) of Adelaide. A stunning suburb by the way (so much greenery)! All the coffee tables at Local Crowd Cafe were decorated with small vases of Ponder Posy arrangements. Of course, I made sure I took lots of photos, and those are what I wanted to share with you today.

If you are local to Adelaide and have the opportunity or the excuse to enjoy a nice cup of coffee, then you should visit Local Crowd Cafe, and sit down to check out the flower arrangements in person. [Edit Dec 2016] I’ve been to the cafe several times since, and they always have different arrangements from Ponder Posy in rotation, so hopefully it’s a long-term staple of the decor.

The world: ignites in me, a sense of curiosity. My mind does not settle until it can comprehend, until it understands. For the physical world, creation has always been my enduring method of choice. For the spiritual world, all-encompassing practices like yoga and meditation, a belief in a higher energy, and writing have always been the soothing and balancing tools I have returned to, to re-ground myself. This is my journey of self-expression. Through written words and different forms of art. To my soul, my inner essence.

Say Everything You Want To Say

Recently I wrote about the artist who has so much to express. Today it’s about the person, not the artist, that feels like they have so much to say but not enough opportunity to express it. The person that feels frustrated of not being understood.

Pursuit For Regular, States Of Happiness

Rather than chasing a life-long pursuit of happiness, redefine your time-frame to something more manageable. Aim to achieve it regularly. Frequently. Continuously. Allow your life-long pursuit for happiness to transform into a pursuit of achieving regular states of happiness.

Schwarzkopf Hair Treatment – Ultimate Repair Anti-Damage Mask

I applied the Schwarzkopf Ultimate Repair Anti-Damage Mask after washing my hair with the Schwarzkopf Extra Care Ultimate Repair Shampoo and Conditioner. I left in for 7 mins, the recommendation is 1-2 mins. That’s how long I could stand still and ponder about life before I got bored.

  Thanks Monique! The flowers were just so pretty, without overwhelming the tables. Thank you for your kind words about the photos – I think I’m developing a major love for photography.
