There’s nothing like fresh cut flowers to really brighten up a home.  I have started bringing home a small bouquet of flowers from the Heights Floral Shop on 20th Street for a few months now and it really makes a difference in our sitting room.  I’ve enjoy running over there and getting a new bouquet every two weeks, which is about how long many of them seem to last.  Best of all, the flower and color options are completely limitless.  The one pictured is the second one I brought home with autumn colors and I requested a bit of blue to match some of our sitting room decor.

The first time I went down there I purchased their least expensive arrangement which came in a small glass vase for only $34.95.  The bouquet itself was full of vibrant fall colors like orange, red and yellow with some gorgeous mums.  The flowers lasted about 2 weeks and then I brought the vase back to them and had them just refill it (word to the wise…make sure you have them put the vase in a portable box because if you place it on the floorboard…it’s bound to fall over and spill water all over your car).  I usually leave the flower and color options up to them because I think it makes it more fun and interesting.  A fresh flower bouquet would be a great low cost option for someone trying to sell their home and wanting to brighten it up a bit.
