A Much Loved Flowery Tradition

November 7, 2025

Oh how I love a flowery tradition on Flower Friday! This will be the 10th year friend and artist Jeanne McKay Hartmann will be joining us painting her beautiful works at our kick-off to the Holiday Season Open House on Saturday November 15th, from 1 to 3. Oh what a treat to see her create the pieces in person. Plus this year, there are three options to choose from! Imari Roses, Green Wellies and Holly & Ivy. 

From the artist: “Wondering about the inspiration for the 2025 watercolors? Our travels in Ireland, and to Ashford Castle specifically, sparked this year’s creations: The enormous bouquet of roses in an antique Imari vase that greeted us when we arrived, the crowd of green Wellies standing ready by the hotel entry, a piece of Guinness family silver in the castle’s collection, and the holly and ivy that flourished in the surrounding woodlands.”

{Here are the details} 50 total watercolors are created, which makes them an extra special memorable work of art. The only way to order is to call or text me directly at 206.617.9678. Each piece is $85. You can get it monogrammed, up to two letters, if you would like. Buy one or many. We can ship these to you, as well. Cheers to friendship and tradition!
