MIDSUMMER :: 7FLOWERS :: 1DREAM

This weekend we celebrate Midsummer. It´s always one of the biggest -if not the biggest- festivity in Sweden. As cities turn into ghost towns, everybody goes to the countryside, to spend this weekend with family & friends. According to tradition, maidens should pick seven flowers during the midsummer night and put the flowers underneath their pillow. In return the midsummer night will bring them dreams about the man they´re going to marry. With that being a fun tradition, I just had to do that too! Even if this was actually supposed to be done by maidens and with wild flowers; these are modern times, so I added some personal touches to it! And in case you wondered; yes I did have some dreams... ;-)
