Phlox and wee little forget me not's in a cut Crystal salt seller.

Daffodils.

I normally have to order Daffs from the flower shop. Due to the warm weather we have them in bloom and hyacinths. In month month we will have Lilacs!!

Room Pics..

I love this pewter wall plaque. And another small Cosmo arrangement.

These candles are so cool.
They are from the 80s and a little Dungeons and Dragons fairy like but look right at home with a touch of whimsy.

I love these hand carved hares.
One is the top of an antique walking cane the other a bottle opener.

Another much larger candle.
Apparently when you light these eventually the wax streams from the mans eyes.

Cosmos.

Flowers on my Computer desk.

Here are some photos from the past few weeks.


In between Lilacs and Peony there is the lovely wild phlox.

This poet's narcissus makes a fragrant display.

Lilacs of course..

And Phlox! I love it!
It grows along the bank of the river and the whole property smells sweet for 2 weeks.

The river bank. It will be solid shades of White, Purple and Lavender in a couple days.

It was the 6th of May last year before I was able to make arrangements last year.
It seems like in 2 weeks and we'll have peonies.

This past week has been amazing! My mom says this is the first time March went out as a lamb since 84. Well I cant seem to remember but it is glorious outside. I'm also LOVING Martha on Hallmark! Everyday is like Christmas with all these beauties being re-aired!


Everyday there is more flowers! Here is a little assortment in a blue ware bowl. It smells lovely!

Flower Arranging.

Watching Martha today she made a lilac bouquet.I also did recently using a soup tureen.Instead of using floral tape I use wire frogs.After a few lilacs you don't even need any support.

I love flower frogs.I have several.They make me happy.
