Friday Favorites -- Celebrating May Day




May Day (May 1st) is celebrated in many places around the world. The traditions and stories surrounding May Day vary from place to place. There is, however, one thing that is similar in most celebrations - the use of Flowers!


One of the most popularly known May Day traditions is to hang a basket full of spring flowers and/or other small gifts on a neighbor's doorknob. The trick is you don't want the neighbor to see you! If you get caught, you are supposed to get a kiss.


*** My favorite May Day Flower cone is the one featured in this photo.  For step by step directions in making this adorable Fresh Flower door hanging basket, go to Skip to My Lou and you will see all of the details. It's one of the best that I have seen.  And nothing says it better than homemade!


Great job, Skip to my Lou!
