Straw Bags & Summer Flowers

Ashley McCormick - Cottages & Gardens

 
Here is a fun idea for summer - use straw beach bags/totes as containers for summer flowers - preferably real ones! For the hydrangeas one could use a potted plant or cut hydrangeas in a vase. Use a plastic garbage bag as a liner for the bottom for any drips. The bench cushion is Quadrille's Petite Zig Zag. Straw bags are so summery and multi-functional - I use one every day as a handbag because I love a big bag. 

Here are some ideas for the bags. Click on the captions to link.

  1. I love straw bags, (and wide brimmed straw hats), too, and almost always carry a large one. When I see women with tiny bags, I'm very impressed and wonder how they do it. They must contain all their necessities in their smart phone. I guess that makes me the older generation!

    1. How do you fit a makeup bag, hair brush, and sunglasses into a smart phone? LOL.
