Yesterday I was in Rotterdam at Donner's, a large bookstore, where they did a shop window, with all kinds of plastic containers, the ones that your detergent comes in. All filled with one flower. I just bought a new camera, the battery was low, so I couldn't take a photo. But perhaps we could google Donner and Fridamaria. <br /><br />If you want to know anything else, please let me know, have a nice day, LiLiLiLi M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14242615020311128940noreply@blogger.com
