Rose Forever:
These roses are stunning. Rose Forever is based in New York, and they use natural oil to preserve their roses. The bouquets are hand-crafted by professional flower artisans. All the materials used to cover the boxes are vegan, even the pink suede and black velvet. The preserved roses in specials colors (violet, black, royal blue) are created through a natural process of pigmentation, to keep the rich, intense shade, and are allergen-free. I have never been disappointed by Rose Forever.

You will love these!
I am sharing with my friends! Thank yiu!
Your voice is sweet and calming. When I hear it, I reminisce about visits with my mother's people during vacations in Mississippi and Mother's reversion to the accent and intonation of her younger years for two weeks prior. "Like melted butter" we would say about the way the words would roll off her tongue. 😊
That is funny. I wish I could hear it the way you do. When Harry Connick Jr. narrated "My Dog Skip" (which took place in Mississippi) I felt that way about his voice.
I have loved Veranda magazine over the years and enjoyed using many of the design and entertaining ideas. A sumptuous, must-have book! Thank you!
Lovely video---with music that seems to say: Remember when....? Nothing is more memorable than sharing food and good times with those we love---and nothing is more memorable than the beautiful table setting that sets the stage for such memories! As Thankgiving approaches, I am reminded of a dear friend who is now passed, who I spent time with on Thanksgiving Day---just 2 yrs ago. I was in the process of moving away and wanted to spent the day with her---one last time. We had agreed to have dessert together in the early evening: she wasn't feeling her best so I told her to let me take care of everything! So at around 5 pm I headed down the hallway to her apartment with my large silver tray loaded with china dessert plates, cups & saucers, crystal water glasses, napkins & pearl handled flatware for the pumpkin pie that I had not yet been able to perfect! It was simple and elegant, warm & authentic as we had a great time talking and laughing and sharing---one last time! I will never forget that special evening with someone who was so very special in my life! We were both going through trying circumstances---but we had come through worse---so we did what came naturally: we made the best of it in gracious style! Happy Thanksgiving, to my dear friend whom I shall never forget!
What a sweet story! Life can be difficult even during the "good times". It's these small thoughtful moments and gestures that feed our souls. People being kind to others even through a smile or a kind word is so important. I love that you made the best of the situation in "gracious style"! 💗
Thank you so much for your beautiful videos!...SO beautiful, voice and music. Love Veranda!
Now this is my kind of book. The content and photographs are simply gorgeous. Thank you Veranda and Clinton Smith for sharing such beautiful ideas for decorating and entertaining.❤
This is so relaxing. Your choice of visuals and music is a treat. I also like fresh flowers on the table. Those roses will qualify as fresh and real but last a long time! Win win!
Thank you, and yes, the roses really are beautiful.
I always look forward to the book you will highlight and was thrilled you chose Veranda Entertaining, I have this book and have not perused it in a while. Loved revisiting it with you and will curl up (it’s cold here) and revisit this beautiful book. Thank you again for bringing us such wonderful books and taking us through them with such a lovely calming voice. I also love the behind the scenes, revealing a part of your life that brings all the threads together. Until the next book 📖💕
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Hi Mary, I love entertaining and this book reinforces why I love it! I get such joy when my guess sit down to a beautiful table! Recently I served coffee and cake informally (I thought) to a couple of neighbors. I later found out one neighbor was quoted as saying....when you have coffee with Linda it's with a tablecloth, cup and saucer! No mugs!! (LOL) I always treat my quest as "special" no matter who they are and love doing it. I am going to check into the roses as they look beautiful! Have a wonderful day and I will see you in the next one. Hugs! :)
Another must have for my library... Beautiful!!!
Lovely!

Beautiful book Veranda
I sent two lovely Rose Forever bouquets to my women friends who live away from Texas now on your recommendation. They were both absolutely astonished! They have told me how lovely and fresh the roses are and so perfect they both thought they could not be real. Thank you, thank you for such a fine reference! I’m very pleased with it and your channel and you! Happy new year!
I'm so excited about this. Thank you for letting me know. I love these flowers. They surpassed my expectations. Thanks also for watching and supporting the channel. It is appreciated.

Pure luxury and lust! 💕🙏🌹
Let me point out that you have exceptional selection of music for your videos. Which brings me to the next question: which piece is this one?
Thank you, that piece of music is "The Moment" by Robert Miller.
Why not show the entire rose out of the box?
Because the rose blossom is preserved and not the stem they are affixed to the container. I guess you could remove them but I wouldn’t suggest it.
@@thetartantopiary thanks.
