I've got flowers on the brain this week. I've been planting up outdoor pots and fluffin up arrangements inside. My hydrangeas have just started to bloom so I clipped a few to fill this fabulous galvinized bucket....
Fresh flowers always liven up your home....don't ya think?
But, if you don't have live then good quality faux will do too....
especially if you put them in a french basket!
Of course I can't let you go without showing you another burlap and lace bow pillow creation...
I plan to go to auction tonight
and maybe score something wonderful.
You can bet if I do I will tell you all about it!
~~hugs~~

The hydrangeas are beautiful Sissie, love that great blue color! Happy Weekend:@)
I have a white hydrangea. It is pretty much finished blooming here. I just love them. I too have faux flower bouquets. Happy Friday!
I just bought my hydrangeas yesterday, Sissie, and can't wait to plant them. Of course, it's raining today, but that's okay. I'm sure all the plants can use the water {it's been dry here}. I also bought some faux lilacs. I've seen so many bloggers with their real lilacs that I couldn't take it anymore. The scent is what I'd really like, but I'll take the visual right now. : )
I love the bucket your hydrangeas are in. Such a nice pop of color in your lovely living room. I have real and faux, too. I see nothing wrong with the faux ones.
That is a beautiful blue hydrangea! I only have big white snowball ones, but I do love them! Your french basket of faux makes me think I need to get sometning pretty on my front door. I would like to do a basket of flowers for the door to accent my newly painted front door!~Hugs, Patti
Oh your flowers are fabulous, they look so pretty. Sure wish we could grow hydrangeas, but not in the desert. Love the faux too. Yours looks so pretty. Hope you find tons of treasures. Hugs, Marty
With or without flowers (and may I add gorgeous flowers?)...that is a beautiful room from all angles.

I'm waiting for mine to bloom. Waiting and waiting and waiting! I think they are the same pretty blue as yours! =)

Your flower arrangements are so uplifting and your home would be like a dream come true for me. I love how you put things together.
Wish I could go with you. I love auctions!! Good luck!
I so agree--fresh flowers make the house feel more alive! Those faux flowers are so nice too--I would have never known they weren't real if you didn't tell me. Very nice! Love the burlap!
So lovely! Ours are pink, but always wanted blue/purple (I hear you can try to add something to the soil).
My hydrangeas are not blooming big yet, and I see them every where blooming, they have buds maybe some miracle grow will helo. Hydrangeas are my favorite, faux and real
yours are beautiful

Hi Sissie!

Hi Sissie, Your hydrangeas add a beautiful pop of blue in your lovely home. When we got home my bushes were loaded with hydrangeas starting to open up. Can't wait to bring some inside.

Your faux flowers look completely real ! Are even the roses silks??? And... your house is so so pretty, those blue hydrangeas look amazing with your soft creamy sofa and everything in the room. I copied your burlap bow on a lampshade i had, it worked great, and it also filters the light, thanks for the fantastic idea!

Beautiful Hydrangeas! I always feel so happy reading your blog posts. I am going to make burlap lace bows! Good luck with the auction. Grace xoox
