Under a Blue Moon

Decor, cooking, organization, all the pretty things

Flowers

Picture 786a 

Sara sent me a picture of an Easter tablescape that showcased a HUGE vase of cut blossoms.  I immediately dispatched Rick out into the yard for an armload of pear blossoms.

Sara if you were closer you could pick armloads for yourself.

I loved that plaid chair seven years ago when we first picked it out.  It has a matching one just out of the picture.   Now I hate that plaid.  It goes nicely with the solid green sofa and the floral loveseats but if I had to do it over again I would have gone with a faded floral like Taylor Scott's Antebellum Peach fabric.

I'd also whitewashed the wood bits but I may come up against some opposition from Rick.  Why do men have trouble with the notion of painting wood? 

We have houseguests coming up tommorow so we are getting the house all sparkly and prettied up.  Nothing like inviting someone over to make you dust the six month old cobwebs out of the corners and finally deal with that three foot high pile of magazines.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!  I hope you have sunshine and blossoms too!

    I have to say Andrea, the chair is pretty hot just the way it is:>) I like it (I have a plaid sofa and love seat, I’m getting tired of them but I love your chair!) My hubby has a panick attack if I mention painting something wood. Sheesh, well he always says it’s easier to get forgiveness than permission, maybe we should run with that! lol. Have a great weekend!

    The room looks very inviting to me! I like the plaid chair, the big white table with all the pictures, and the big windows. I need to have some guests over soon for those reasons you mentioned. Have a good weekend!

    I love the room it looks so homey. The flowers are a great idea. I wish things were blooming here so I could have some.

    The rooom is beautiful! My nectarine and apricot trees are just beginning to blossom. I’ll be filling a vase soon, too. Come on, spring!

    My Mother used to force blooming tree limbs into bloom in the winter so she could have flowers in the house – especially in January.

    I have seen so many bloggers who posted about that Antique Faire – it must be amazing.

    You do not hate that plaid fabric. It works perfectly with the room’s decor.
    Aren’t those blossoms incredible? I need some fresh flowers right now.
