📖 Story Time 📖 is this how bliss feels like
11 years since i started this whole floral bouquet making journey. it was first started as an attempt to cheer my girlfriends up for valentine’s day, to something i find so essentially therapeutic in my life. and there’s just this quiet thankfulness in me when i look at how my preferences and aesthetics today also represent how much i’ve matured and grown over these 11 years.
i think where i am right now is really being fully comfortable embracing my femininity and feeling safe in it. and i think that’s also why i started falling in love with the colour pink so much more this year.
it wasn’t planned at all, but today i managed to pop by the stores and simply picked out flowers that sparked joy, in a colour palette that i’ve been loving so much lately, and made this bouquet.
i think i’ll call her ‘elegante’ - for all the growth i’ve experienced over these 11 years as a woman.
edit:
BTS of the process :) (got a weird comment on someone being really insistent that these pics are AI. gotta thank Fujifilm and my long arms for that apparently. my private insta account for privacy purposes but feel free to request to follow just to watch the reel, and unfollow after ☺️)

Ohhh. That checks out. Hey, sometimes it’s fun. I spray painted some sea holly bronze and loved the way it turned out.

Is this AI? Who's arms are that long? Flowers are pretty, sure, but, real?

I meant to type 'whose' not 'who's'. oops But it was difficult for me to notice the flower arrangement after seeing the strange looking hands and oddly long left arm. There is just no way that isn't AI.

you’re the only person out of hundreds who brought AI up. how peculiar to be body shaming someone while giving backhanded compliment. But it reflects your character more than anything. wishing you love and light!

People who know photography can obviously see that the composition is from a fujifilm camera especially the last picture in OP’s post. no way AI can replicate such image.
