Children Of Womens-Place from a few years back…WILD FLOWER ART WORK!
The most exciting part of a family garden tends to be the area created by children. By letting the kids in your life help with the choosing and planting of your flowers, you add a special touch to your garden no other home will have. This month, we asked the WP kids to show us what they thought beautiful flowers looked like, and they came up with some of the most unique and colorful blooms we’ve ever seen. We wish we could grow some just like them in our own gardens!

Travis’ Garden |
“His garden consists of two tulips, one yellow sunflower, and one flower to be identified later. The ladybugs and the butterfly are from his stamp markers.”

Mary C, Maggie’s Mom told us that Maggie loves to draw. “She will sit at the table and color for hours if I let her. She is very creative and usually makes up a wild story to go with whatever she is drawing. This picture has a HUGE sun to help the flowers grow after being cold all winter. The butterflies are enjoying the sun and also enjoying the smell of the pretty flowers.”

“Flowers are pretty. They make me smile!”

“My picture is of flowers and butterflies. The butterflies and flowers are like life. Butterflies are very delicate and pretty. They have short lives. I read about them when Chris died. The one butterfly represents Chris to me and the other represents God to me. The flowers are almost like the butterflies because their lives are short. When you have them you enjoy them and when they are gone you are sad, but you can remember the prettiness of them in your heart and mind. The flowers I drew are a rose, tulip and gardenia.”

“It’s a daisy that has magenta on it, growing in the middle of nowhere.”

“My flowers are ’sky-match flower’, a rose, a daisy and a blueberry flower. They’re growing in the front and side yard of a house you can’t see in the picture.”

“This is called a dazzal. It is not a flower you would see in a garden, but you would see this flower created in my mind. The colorfulness of the dazzal attracts insects that appear in my mind’s eye.”
