Mothers Day Baskets

I took Ellie out for her afternoon walk, before coming to work at the salon.

I noticed my neighbor, that lives in the apartment below, had these beautiful baskets out on tables.

I, of course, being a shopper at heart, had to ask questions.

I was surprised to learn they were hand made by Rose, my sweet neighbor. (Let me insert, I've not actually "met" her, but say hello whenever I see her). And she just seems like a sweet soul.

A young lady, whom I am guessing is her daughter and a young man were manning the tables. I asked what was going on, she said, my mom makes these baskets and they we're selling them for Mothers Day.

Now, I know what you're thinking, "So is everyone else," but, for me, this sweet lady's baskets got me thinking how I wished my mom was still alive, I would have totally bought one from her.

The prices ranged from $20-$65 and honestly, I thought - wow - that is pretty inexpensive.

I took a video, with their permission and asked the owner of the nail salon where I work, if they come in on Saturday and/or Sunday and set up a table to sell them.

To my surprise, he said YES!

So, when I get home from the salon, I. am going to let her know - I am excited for her.

We're usually fairly busy on Saturdays and Sundays, so I am praying she sells a ton of them.

So, if you're in the Orlando/Winter Park area and you want to support my neighbor Rose, let's make it happen!

OR if you want/need a pedicure come see us at Nails by Mercede in College Park!
