The Friendliest Flower-Spring Printable

Name the movie….

Once I read a story about a butterfly in the subway, and today, I saw one! It got on at 42nd and off at 59th, where, I assume, it was going to Bloomingdales to buy a hat that will turn out to be a mistake, as almost all hats are.

It’s one of my favorite movies of……ever.
It’s a feel good movie that makes my heart happy.

Did I ever mention that I decided a few years ago that watching movies that make me sad, scared, or anxious, just isn’t worth it to me?  I kind of got older and realized that I mostly only wanna watch movies that make me happy.

So pretty much, it’s romantic comedies and animated kid flicks for me.

I know.
But it’s true.

Back to that feel good movie.  Did you guess it yet?

“You’ve Got Mail”

With Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.

And seriously, there are parts in that movie that are SO cute.  So perfection.  I could watch it over and over.  And my heart just soars at the end.  Every. Time.

And one of my very favorite parts is toward the end, when Tom Hanks character goes over to visit Meg Ryan and she has a cold.

“I love daisies.”
“You told me.”
“They’re so friendly. Don’t you think that daisies are the friendliest flower?”

THEY ARE!  Aren’t they?

I remember one time, about exactly 4 years ago.  I had been in the hospital for a week, in pre-mature labor with our daughter.  I was tired.  Lonely.  And sad.

And my husband walked in with a bouquet of white daisies, with a note that said, “don’t you think that daisies are the friendliest flower?”

Now that phrase ALWAYS makes me smile.  And it always reminds me of spring!

So I was super excited when I decided to add it to my spring decor this year.  (and I love how it looks in that teal frame, with it’s tray and egg buddies)

I love this one, in particular, because it’s pretty small.  It’s a ‘lil 4×6.  I printed it out on glossy photo paper here at home.  And I’m DYING over how much I love the results.  The color looks amazing!

Do you wanna add daisies to your spring decor too?  Of course, I won’t leave you hangin’.

This printable is sized at 4×6. It won’t look optimal if printed at a larger size.  To use, click on image, enlarge to full size, right click & save to your desktop, and print as you’d like!  Super simple!

    Love this printable! And I'm totally with you on the movie choices! Why pay money (or spend time) to be terrified or depressed? It if doesn't make me happy or feel good- it's out. Same thing with t.v.

    So cute! And "You've Got Mail" is admittedly one of my all-time FAVORITE guilty pleasure movies. How can you not love a good Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan pairing?? LOL

    Daisies are my very favorite. My front flower bed is filled with white daisies and every year when they are in bloom everyone comments how beautiful they are. My wedding bouquet was all daisies! This is going in my office and it will make me smile everyday! Thank you for making my days brighter!

    Oh my word! It's so weird reading this blog post. I follow the same movie moto. If I wanted to see death and all those things I can just turn on the news. There is plenty of that in the real world so why would I pay to see that. I would rather pay to laugh so hard I pee my undies!

    Love this printable. As soon as I saw this I thought of my sister, she is great like a daisy. Well I printed off five of these, grabbed out some ikea frames, painted them up and gave one to each of my sisters and mom. They loved them thanks so much for sharing. Yay, spring is in the air :-)

    I love "You've Got Mail". I have it on VHS and pop it into the VCR anytime that I am cleaning or need a bit of background entertainment during a project. Maybe it's time I upgraded to a DVD?

    I started following this past month and loved your daisy post. Imagine my delight when I found a daisy platter today at a garage sale. Can't wait to start my project. Thought you might like to see it. Come by if you'd like.

    This is too cute. But did you notice that 'daisies' is spelled wrong in your framed art? Oops! :)

    I just found your blog. I love this movie too!! I knew immediately the movie when I read your first paragraph. I love every word of this movie. It makes my heart sing and it makes me fall in love with love. Coincidentally, I wrote a blog about this movie just last month with some of my favorite quotes. –Almost every line could be a card.
