We had heavy rain all day Monday. I donned raincoat and boots, a basket and secateurs and went foraging for flowers. The pickings are a little slim but I found late roses, carnations, olive leaves and wintersweet. Enough to make this jewel-encrusted posy, and another little bunch of wintersweet for the bathroom counter (and later, my bedside table, so I would have sweet dreams). I also have a bowl of hyacinths unfurling on the hall table. My house is beautiful right now.
Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
Deleteit's amazing what you can rustle up, even in winter!
ReplyDeleteThat's right, there's usually something hiding away out there!
DeleteWow, you made a lovely bouquet! It's always enjoyable to display flowers from your own garden:) The combination of pale yellow roses and pale pink carnations is quite attractive! Have a great weekend:)
ReplyDeleteThanks Keity, I love picking flowers from my garden! Especially in winter, when it's easier to enjoy them inside in the warm.
