As Polkadot Bride pointed out on my previous post, they are lovely and fluffy which is what I also like about them.Once again though, she read my mind as this is a pic I snapped at a local fruit & flower market as inspiration....
So pretty, fluffy and delicate. For those of you who may not be convinced, take a peek at these bouquets!

The Carnation is a great flower for your bouquet toss or as a buttonhole.

P.S If I remind you that the pink carnation was Carrie Bradshaw's favourite flower would that help the stigma? I am honest enough that it was probably around that episode when I started to rethink my thoughts on the humble carnation.

As I was reading your post, I was thinking about that episode of SATC (filler-flowers they are not!).
They are such a sweet flower - I'm all for their comeback. Those posies are divine!
very pretty
