Fav Finds + Flower Friday: Bird of Paradise

Since I've got Grandpa and Grandma on the brain I thought I'd share my Grandma's favorite flower, the bird of paradise. I remember as a little girl walking into her backyard which was filled with them. I did a quick search to see how they could be used in weddings and I really didn't find much. I think brides are a bit afraid of it's boldness. It is also a fairly large flower and stalk.
I thought the bouquet below was pretty cool...



Here are some of my fav finds from the week!
