Teacups, Florals, & Fleurs



On Groundhog Day we turned the unofficial corner toward spring. Or is it official? This year of all years, come what still may, at least our thoughts have gone around that bend. It's not at all unusual for our spring blossoms to freeze around here. And it seems a given this year.




But blooms will come. And while we await their arrival, a gathering of hothouse flowers, rose strewn teacups, and crisp floral fabrics stand in beautifully in their stead. . . .    



















































































I hope you have a cheery (and SUPER) weekend ahead, my friends!

Jacqueline

    With temps in the high 70s around here lately, blooms are popping out everywhere. My knockout rose bushes are covered! I'd like a bit more cold weather please. ;-)
