Flower Vault Picture Wall Venues

Everyone dreams of having a personal photo shoot background playground at their fingertips and the wait is over! I ran across this amazing spot while scrolling through my Instagram feed and wanted to share it with you in today’s blog post. The venue is called The Flower Vault and it is a pop up venue that allows customers to come and share in the beauty of several different flower walls that are beautifully placed throughout the venue. The Flower Vault is currently located in Houston and San Antonio locations. They offer appointments, as well as walk ins. You are allowed an allotted time (an hour for walk ins) for the price of entry and you can take your own photos or bring a photographer. They also have a restroom available at the venue for wardrobe changes or those last minute make up touch ups! In addition to the actual flower walls located in the venue, there is some very cool lighting fixtures that make for some awesome pictures as well! I am sharing all of the flower walls at the Houston location in today’s post so you will have a great idea of all the choices you have and hopefully some inspiration to go and make a visit and make some awesome memories too!

The next flower wall in the venue is the “yellow room” that includes a massive sunflower on one wall and several tiny sunflowers on the adjacent wall that form hearts! Completely adorable!

Whomever said blue is not your color has definitely not seen you in this flower room! This blue rose flower wall was one of my favorites in the venue! This room would be perfect for so many types of pictures, from engagement to baby announcements!

Probably the most fun room in the venue is this next room,  that is floor to ceiling filled with sunflowers! You can not help but smile in this room! I truly enjoyed every second in it (as you can see!)

The next room is a multi floral room with multi colored stones that are strategically placed throughout to be used in any way you wish to take cool photos! (just don’t step off the stones or you will crush the flowers!) This room is amazing, as it is truly covered in flowers!

There is a very cute seating area full of plush pillows, against a pale pink wall, that is included in the venue as well for those that wish to use it. This would make a great setting for group pictures or pictures with your little ones or even your fur babies! I went during the Easter holiday, so I incorporated it in my photos.

Because Mom

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and if you are anything like me, your life is one gigantic moment. You literally are in constant motion. Do not fret though, today I am sharing some great last minute gift ideas that are sure to put a smile on every moms face and touch every moms heart!

I’m going to start with my favorite gift that I have come across this Mom’s Day season and I think the reason I like it the most is because it is the most sincere gift of all. One of the retailers I follow is:  https://walkinlove.com/ .  They actually posted a challenge on their blog, called the “#oneminutemomchallenge”. The purpose of the challenge is for you to record a one minute video to your mom and send it to her and then challenge others to do so as well. We all get so busy in our day to day lives that we lose sight of actually communicating with each other, so I love this idea! The video can be uploaded and saved by moms and replayed nonstop! I can only imagine the amount of tears of joy this challenge will be bringing this Mom’s Day! You can find the challenge through the website: https://walkinlove.com/  , or you can download the walk in love app from the app store on your smart phone, or you can find it on youtube at the link below.

The next best thing to your sweetness, is actual sweet stuff! That’s right, cookies! Mom is always cooking for everyone and never has time to make something sweet just for her. What better way to make her smile, then to send her something sweet! There are some great promotions going on right now at Cookies by Design and they do same day delivery! You can find everything sweet they have to offer on their website:

15% Off Mother's Day Gifts!

Every mom wants to be spoiled at least one day a year and what better way to spoil them then with jewelry?! It’s such a timeless gift that they can wear everyday or just when they want to think of you! One of my favorite places to get and give jewelry from is Kendra Scott. They are still offering shipping by Mom’s day if you order by today! They are also offering a few specials on their site today and have a variety of gift giving options such as this earrings and necklace set picture below! The link for their website is:

Sophia Earrings and Elisa Necklace Set in Rose Gold

Last, but certainly not least, for those of you that have completely run out of time and options, there is the good old fashioned gift cards! I myself, as a Mom, can attest that I LOVE receiving them! There are literally so many options you can choose from nowadays that you practically can’t go wrong with this choice! From your mom’s favorite Boutique, to Spa gifts cards, Visa cards, Starbucks, Craft stores, I mean you name it and there is a gift card for it somewhere!

I hope this helps some of you out with your last minute ideas and took a little stress out of your life, even if for a moment! I would love to hear about some of your mom’s day gifts, so feel free to leave comments! As always much love and wishing all my mom’s a happy and blessed mom’s day! xoxo – SheShe

 

 

Bluebonnets, It’s A Season In Texas

That’s right Y’all (In Texas we say Y’all – translation is you all!), Bluebonnets are in full bloom here in the great state of Texas! For those of you that are not familiar with this gorgeous flower, let me introduce y’all. The Bluebonnet is the official state flower for the State of Texas, registered in 1901. The flower was named for it’s blue color and sunbonnet shaped petals. BB10

Each year the flower blooms in early spring and can be found in central and south Texas. The Bluebonnet is known worldwide and is extremely popular for being photographed during it’s bloom. When in bloom, it is practically considered a season here in Texas, otherwise known as, “Bluebonnet Season”.  Although, not an official season, we here in Texas take it pretty seriously! (so much so, that it is myth that it is considered illegal to pick them!)

Tourist flock to the State every year to get pictures of these gorgeous flowers. Driving up and down the interstate, you see cars parked along side of the road for miles, with people out in the fields taking pictures. It’s difficult not to smile being amongst these beautiful flowers!

 There are several locals that live along the interstate that open up their private properties to travelers to stop and take photos during this popular time of year. One stretch of highway that is well known to the locals and extremely popular during the blooming season is Highway 290. Specifically the stretch between Chappell Hill and Austin, TX.  When driving this piece of the highway, there are several spots where you can stop and get some great photos of the Bluebonnets.BB5

     One of my favorite spots to take pictures every year of the Bluebonnets is the First Baptist Church of Chappell Hill. The Church is located at 7675 FM 2447 , Chappell Hill, TX 77426. There are literally hills and fields of Bluebonnets located all around the Church, as well as a gorgeous Red Barn! In addition, the Church allows visitors to park on their property while you take your photos. The hospitality in Texas just can’t be beat! Here is a link to their website:
