The lighting I took the pictures in does not do these flowers justice, but they pretty!! I swear the $6 I spend on flowers a week is worth a million times more to me. As a little girl I always dreamed of being a lady who had fresh flowers in her house, I am still trying to track the origins of that dream. Martha perhaps? I used to have my Mom buy me Marthas (and Vogues) when I was young!! LOL I think I have my first original copies are somewhere, I need to find the year on those things...My box of old magazines may be the only thing that my mom did not keep for me at her house.
Thank you Mom for everything!!
Oh and BTW Mom, what do you think of this
Asparagus tart for our Easter menu?
I need to add a perfume tray to my on the hunt list.

I love these posts! I've even started buying flowers more often because of them :)
ReplyDeleteYou should check a thift store or TJs for a vintage silver platter or even a pretty old mirror to put the bottles on, would totally 'fit' the look...
The asparagus tart sounds wonderful! Too bad it's going to rain on Easter, we will have to hunt for eggs inside :(
ReplyDeleteI love fresh flowers! The gerbera daisies you have there are soooo pretty.
ReplyDeleteGerberas are SO pretty! I completely agree...fresh flowers just make my day!

ReplyDeleteIt is like you can read my mind. I like the same way about flowers. Look for bedside trays at flea markets. I found an old one made of leather.
ReplyDeleteFresh flowers do such amazing things to the room, I totally agree! Hubby and I like to hit up the SF flower market on Saturdays when they're open to the public and get great flowers for cheap!
ReplyDeleteI was going to pick up some flowers on my grocery run this evening and they were all crappy... im going to have to run to the fancier store across town tomorrow, because i am now super jealous :)
