Finishing Your Relationship Amicably Without Harm

Women, we are easily hurt by those relationships we have that does not work out well. We tend to work on things just to forget about it or sometimes we want to end our lives which will eventually not the solution. How do we end up a relationship in which we will not be hurt so much?
　　
Breaking up and finishing your relationship amicably, or dealing with a divorce in a mutually respectful way. It all becomes more manageable and less messy.
　　

Can anyone be good enough to forget the hurt that has gone through the relationship? This question that must be analyzed between a man and a woman who have ended the relationship they had with one another. How graceful we are to accept the fact that we are not so perfect enough to plan every step in our relationship with a man.
　　
Being dumped is one of the most devastating things that happens in life. Therefore, one should always weigh the reasons for walking out, making sure of this decision before making it final. Once you are sure, though, it's important to remember that your soon-to-be ex was once your love. Although breaking thisrelationship off is certain to be painful, especially for the person being dumped, it's important to be respectful of the other person's feelings, and try hard to do as little damage as possible.
　　
Talk Early and Often – The time of the actual breakup should not be the first time your partner is made aware that you have issues with how things are going. A good friend of mine is fond of saying that relationships are much like driving a car. As long as small steering corrections are made as one rolls down the road, a large jerk of the wheel should never be required.
　　
Always End It in Person – There is nothing more cowardly and pathetic than ending a relationship over the phone, or even worse, through an e-mail or text message. Yet, more and more men are finding this an acceptable medium for cutting ties.
　　
If you can’t handle the prospect of ending a relationship in person, you shouldn’t start one in the first place.
　　
Be Clear – The breakup is not the time to be vague or mysterious. Your lady friend will most likely want some specific reasons why you want to end the relationship, so be ready to provide them. A non-answer like, “I’m just not feeling it anymore,” only shows that you are either a coward or a narcissist, but definitely not a man.You don’t necessarily need a record of wrongs, but having a mental list of things that led you down this road will help the discussion move in the right direction.
　　
Be Considerate – While clarity is necessary, being cruel is not. Breaking up is hard enough without being demeaned or berated in the process. The breakup is not the time to be telling her that the dress she wore on your anniversary actually did make her look fat or that you’ve met dogs with better breath.
　　
No Hanging Chads – No one likes uncertainty. Remember the hanging chad controversy during the 2000 presidential election? The most frustrating aspect of the situation was not being able to tell who citizens had actually voted for. In the same way, men often leave the relationship in an unsettled manner with words that indicate a possibility of picking things up again in the future. Is it over? Is it not? No one knows.
　　
Find yourself a quiet space, perhaps in the bath or some other place you naturally relax. Close your eyes. Focus on your breathing slowing down. And when you are nice and relaxed…just begin to imagine watching yourself from the outside looking composed and poised as you calmly tell your partner that it’s over. The more strongly you do this, the more you’ll prime your mind and emotions to feel the right way about doing the right thing. Or let me help you by clicking on the free audio link below.

What Flowers Can We Send To Fathers

And contrary to a popular misconeption, men loves flowers - especially architectural and bold flowers. Tropical flowers are very masculine and also long lasting. We have some varieties that you simply could not find anywhere else. Tall, sturdy, masculine and lasting - just like dad.
　　
Celebrated on the third Sunday of June in most of the countries, Father’s Day lets you express your love and respect for your dad in the most beautiful manner. The idea of celebrating Father’s Day was given by Ms Sonora Dodd, a loving daughter from Spokane. Her father Mr. Henry Jackson Smart raised her and her siblings, single handedly after the death of their mother. She held her father in great esteem and while hearing a church sermon about the recognized Mother’s Day, Sonora strongly felt that Fatherhood needed recognition as well. The first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19th 1910 in Spokane. Washington and idea of Father’s Day soon became popular and was embraced across USA. In the year 1972, President Richard Nixon established the national observance of Father’s Day on the third Sunday of June.
　　
Over the years, the concept of Father’s Day celebrations has spread across the world and today millions of children express gratitude for their father as they celebrate this day.
　　
To convey your love for the most important man in your life – your Father- you can send a gift, no matter which part of the world he lives in. Through an online flower store, you can send a beautiful bouquet internationally.

Just as carnations are regarded as traditional flowers for Mother’s Day, the most adorable and king of flowers- Rose was chosen as the symbolic flower for Father’s Day. It is believed that Ms Sonora Dodd gave the idea of selecting Rose as the traditional flower for Father’s Day. In some parts of the world, Lilly is also regarded as a traditional flower for Father’s Day.
　　
Choose roses or lilies, you can send a beautiful bouquet internationally to give a pleasant surprise to your father on this Father’s Day. There exists a strong custom to express love and gratitude for father with a bunch of flowers.
　　
You can choose from a fascinating range of bouquets at Fleurop. A Premium Roses Bouquet, the ‘Mayla’, a ‘Cheerful Spring’ bouquet or any other set of flowers as per your choice. We deliver flowers across all major countries in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Pacific region.
　　
Often, when someone thinks of flower bouquets, they think of lilies, daisies or other bright and florally bouquets. But at ProFlowers, we know there are so many masculine options, which come in handy when you are looking to send flowers to dad! And let us reassure you that flowers and plants make great gifts for men! Sending dad an arrangement of orchids, a bunch of irises or a mixed bouquet are always acceptable Father’s Day gifts. They are gifts that dad loves because he knows they came from you as a meaning of love and appreciation. Although you can send dad any kind of flowers you want, we want to recommend a few of our favorite flowers for men.
　　
Want something that gives off the same lovely feeling as flowers, but will last longer? Flowering plants will do just that, which is why ProFlowers considers them another great Father’s Day gift idea. They are also the perfect gift if dad has a green thumb and would absolutely enjoy a gift he can tend and care to. Simply decide if dad would prefer roses, fragrant gardenia, and even azalea bonsai. And with so many blooming plants to choose from, you can further customize the gift by choosing a color that resembles his favorite sports team, your birthstone color (since it is a Father’s Day flower gift), or simply his favorite color!
　　
Another great Father’s Day idea is giving dad a plant “bouquet”. This kind of bouquet is all plant, no flowers! For example, a lucky twist bamboo resembles the shape of a regular blossoming bouquet, only without flowers. Or a ponytail palm can resemble the shape and feel of an orchid, but is really a miniature palm tree bonsai. Dad will love the idea of receiving a little green plant for Father’s Day that can liven up his work office, home office or even kitchen table.
　　
Flowers stores online feature easy ordering and quick delivery. The hardest part for you will be choosing which flower or plant to send to dad. Just remember to take your time in choosing the best gift for him. The hardest part for dad will be deciding where he should put it!

DIY Flower Crown Of Your Own Style

All the photos above are from previous features on Green Wedding Shoes. The glam  gold crown is from this featurewith headpiece by Jannie Baltzar, the dried flower crown is from this real wedding, the boho bridesmaids are from this wedding, the fern + flower crown is from this woodsy shoot and the bottom two photos are from this inspirational shoot.
　　
Ben Sasso recently sent over the photos below. Love the look of real flowers! These were done by The Conservatorie. If you are interested in real flowers for your wedding day, check with your florists to see if they can create something beautiful for you! So gorgeous!
　　
So, where can you get this look? Well, if you are looking for a crown of real flowers, you can either DIY it yourself or I recommend having your florist create it since it can be a bit tricky depending which type of flowers you are using. And you want to make sure your flowers are alive and pretty when you walk down the aisle!
　　
Another option is to buy (or DIY since we’ll be sharing how later today!) your flower crown. There are so many talented designers out there with their own spin on the trend using either fabric, silk or dried flowers. Some of my faves I recommend checking out for this trend include (starting at the top right): Twigs & Honey, Whichgoose, Mignonne Handmade, Lo Boheme, Ruche
　　
To begin, you’ll create the base of the flower crown out of two pieces of floral wire. Mold and gently bend each piece into a half circle. Face the half circles opposite of each other to create a circle and lay it over the top of your head to check the fit. It should be quite snug as the addition of flowers will eventually weigh the crown down. Wrap both overlapping sections tightly with floral tape.
　　
Before adding the flowers to the base, you’ll create several small clusters of flowers. This avoids having to attach each flower individually and overloading the crown with tape. Pick a flower and continue adding 4-5 flowers, each one nestled right below the other. Tightly wrap the base with floral tape. Trim the tips if necessary.
　　

It’s officially Midsummer and honestly, what’s not to love about time-honored celebrations, especially when it involves wearing wildflowers around your head, drinking vodka and dancing around a maypole? Naturally with our love of cultures, customs, and DIYs, we’ve partnered up with our friends atKanon Organic Vodka on a sweet flower crown DIY for their annual Swedish Midsummer festivities and for the ultimate contest. Participating is as simple as liking Kanon’s Facebook page, picking your favorite Midsummer tradition, sharing it with your friends, and winning a chic Phillip Lim bag, gorgeous Pamela Love jewelry or much much more! Click here for more details. Good luck & SKOL!
　　
Once you’ve made 10-15 clusters, start adding them to the base. Position a cluster of flowers against the outside of the wire base and wrap tightly with floral tape. Overlap the second cluster over the first and wrap tightly with tape. Continue layering clusters in the same direction until the entire base is filled. Spray the crown with water or keep it in a cool place until you’re ready to wear it!
　　
STEP 1: Get your supplies! I bought all of my supplies at Michael’s, but any craft store should suffice. What you will need is a handful of selected silk flowers, wire cutters/pliers, heavy rustic floral wire for the base, thin floral wire (green) to attach the flowers, and floral tape or ribbon (both optional).
　　
STEP 2: Take your rustic floral wire and shape it into a circle that fits comfortably on your head. I would suggest making it a little loose because the flowers end up making it fit a bit snugger at the end.
　　
STEP 3: Begin arranging your flowers on the base and decide the general placement of the flowers prior to attaching them. Once decided, start from the back and begin working forward. Take your thin green floral wire and secure each flower into place by wrapping tightly around the base several times (or until you feel like it is secure).
　　
STEP 4: For the larger flowers, there was not enough of a stem for me to securely attach it to the crown, so I improvised, and first went underneath the bottom of the rose and tightly wrapped the wire underneath the green base of the flower between the petals and the stem. Make sure to cut the wire long enough to be able to first wrap around the bottom of the flower as well as still wrap around the crown afterward.
　　
STEP 5: Continue the process moving around to the front of the crown and to the opposite side. There is really no “right” way to arrange your flowers. Just play with it until you feel like they lie the way you like.
　　
STEP 6: You can choose to wrap your flowers around the entire circle of the crown, or, like I did, only go 3/4 around the base. If you decide to only go 3/4, you can finish it off by wrapping the back with floral wire or ribbon. I decided to leave mine as it was because I liked the natural look of it. Voila! You have yourself a flower crown!
