a little off topic, but there is beautiful nature involved; these decoupaged Easter eggs with real pansies on them. Aren't they pretty? I wish I could make them.

 

Some of my favourite scented flowers, all of which I have grown at some stage over the years. (Obviously not my pics)

Hyacinths


Gardenia


Oriental Lillies

 

Outstanding flowers! Here is a unique view on some http://my-spiritual-therapy.tumblr.com/image/113377184971 (won't let me upload most of my images lately cuz too large....I wish I were better at this :-/)

 

Flowers are one of my weaknesses.

I have always wanted to work in a floral shop. Actually, I want to own a bridal boutique that sells gowns and does the flowers for the wedding.

I'd have so much fun with that...

I'd even like to grow the flowers!

 

^ growing your own flowers is great fun, seeing them grow. But then I hate to pick them from the garden.

 

You are reminding me of this bridal party who came into the salon where I used to work many years ago (as a receptionist) to get their hair done. They had fresh-cut flowers woven into their hair and it was really gorgeous! I always thought if I got married I would like to do that; however, I guess that style was a thing of the 90's. I'm not much on fashion; I think flowers in the hair are pretty anytime

 

These are always such a welcomed sight!!!

 

They definitely are! I remember my grandmother always had daffodils, tulips, roses, lilies of the valley and a lilac tree. (also blackberry bushes, apple and plum tree and garden) Cherished memory: the lilac scent wafting into the windows on a breezy day

 

It will be a while before they are coming up here. I did plant more at Mom's grave last fall so I am anxious to see what all comes up this year.

 

Throw the doors and windows open!

 

Will someone start a fire?

 

we didn't start the fire....lol

words to song....

That's gorgeous, Ex!

 

Amazing skies tonight... They always are here at HFVWG!
