Blake Lively has a profound affinity for flowers, and she expressed the same in her recent post on social media. Ahead of the release of her film, It Ends With Us, the actress has shared how she always thought of being a florist.

In an Instagram post on Saturday, July 27, the actress, who will soon portray a florist on the big screen, shared that she’s enjoyed floristry ever since she moved to the city as a teenager to pursue acting. “I’ve always thought I was a florist, well before playing one,” Lively, 36, captioned her post featuring herself surrounded by colorful flowers. “I buy corner store flowers, take them home, reassemble them, and give them new life,” she continued, adding that the experience is one of her “creative and meditative anchors.”


Lively noted in her caption that she feels the luckiest when she gets to garden from scratch or assemble fresh floral arrangements. She described the activity as “straight-up peace.”
