Spending On Home Decoration: Mom Edition.

in #hive-19484822 days ago

Growing up with a prudent mother will teach you a lot about money, like how to save, how to give, and when not to spend too much or not to spend at all. This also happens when we are out to get decorations. Since we are minimalists, we know what to get. My mom is a lover of flowers, and she likes flowers that stand out and last for a while.

I pointed to a nice-looking flower I spotted while walking through the market. It was a purple plastic flower. We bought the flower, and it makes the sitting look more fancy.

The picture above was taken in 2019; it's an old picture with our flower. If you look closely at the table, you will see a nice-looking flower. We have one on the central table in the sitting room, one in the dinner, and the last two are in my mom's room.
Recently, I went to my parents place, and I still found the flower looking beautiful and alive.

It looks beautiful right; it has beautified our home for a year without spending much to take care of it. We got it back then for 1,200 Naira for each ($1.8). It was cheap and it did a good job.

A few months ago, mommy bought another flower, which they said doesn't need much sun light to survive. My mom got a vase, collected some of the flowers, and made a nice flower pot in the passage.

I spent just a few seconds with the plant before I bought out my phone to take some pictures, and there we are today talking about it. Moral of the day: Spend wisely and take pictures.

Thanks for reading.

The purple flower looks so beautiful.

Thanks dear

The flowers look so beautiful, if someone were to go to the market to buy them now, they would probably be more expensive than the price you bought it then. And you're not the only one that experience such situations where you're advised to spend little or not to spend at all. I've had similar experiences with my second eldest sister, who takes it her responsibility to remind me every day not to spend all my money, she always tell me how important it is to save for emergency or future purposes which I would forever be grateful to her for her care.

Yeah
There are many deco that are beautiful and last which will go for a cheap price

Having people in our life’s that remind us the importance of money is very important

questions?

Flowers are good decorations in the home and these flowers are quite lovely too

Yes
They are

How did you guys do it? The flower looks like it was just bought, no dust, cobwebs or dirt. What's the secret? Because I know I'll need it someday.
I also want mine looking good

It’s plastics
So it’s very easy to wipe with just water
It’s beautiful and cheap also
