Do not get me flawed — I love getting flowers for Valentine’s Day, particularly since I used to work in a floral store again within the day. Between my allergy symptoms and my cats making an attempt to chew each final petal (and leaving a big, ahem, mess for me to wash up later), actual flowers and I now not combine.

So after I realized Lego not solely dipped into the grownup market by designing Nice Pyramids and even desk-worthy globes however by additionally dropping an precise $50 floral bouquet, I used to be smitten. I knew I needed to get them.

So I did. And I’ve had them in my residence for a couple of months now. Evidently: Im nonetheless obsessive about the Lego Flower Bouquet.

The 756-piece set is not techy, nevertheless it provides a enjoyable, technical planter to my house. In any case, these 700+ items require a step-by-step construct, and I tip my hat to Lego. Their directions are famously simple to digest, providing trivia tidbits on the pages for readers’ enjoyment. Due to these directions, it was a process that did not require heavy effort and was genuinely enjoyable, harkening again to my childhood days after I’d construct the well-known Isaacs Lego Rooster Tower with my father.

Every of the 15 stems included within the design comes with vibrant colours, from scorching pink snapdragons to pale roses formed from Lego automobile skins. Additionally included to make anybody — myself included — smile are daisies and asters to maximise shade pops.

As soon as accomplished, I merely styled them in a cat-themed vase and continued about my day. As a result of they’re fake flowers, I haven’t got to fret about watering them, nor do I’ve to ask my pet sitter to water them whereas I am on trip. My solely concern? Whether or not or not I’ve to mud the petals. My cats ignore them, my residence is stuffed with shade, and I get to take pleasure in one thing I in any other case could not.

Bundle them collectively for an attractive bouquet like I did, or you possibly can separate them out into bud vases. In case you’re not 100% feeling this $50, cheaper-than-the-real-thing set, different choices are coming.

Beginning Feb. 1, Lego will launch two new floral designs, considered one of which is a wildflower bouquet set. For $60, that set could be yours too, and you’ll pre-order that colourful bouquet proper now on Amazon and Walmart. You already know I have already got.
