I'm decorating my bedroom at the moment and that means everything else seems to go to pot.
My garden is wild with neglect.
and I just had time to pop some roses (Madame Pierre Oger Rose) into a jar to scent the kitchen this morning and then its back with the painting.
Of course there is always time for vintage hunting and I added to my bottle collection this weekend.
Hello Deborah:
ReplyDeleteYour arrangement of flowers, including that perfectly lovely rose whose scent we imagine is wonderful, is very pretty indeed. And, of course, it represents a little piece of normality in the midst of the upheaval of decorating.
We hope that you will make good progress with the painting, a job which once embarked upon one always wishes to see finished.
i LOVE those bottles!!

Such loveliness for us to enjoy! Your photos are just beautiful ~ so loving the colours! Love Brenda
ReplyDeleteDeb, I love those bottles...and of course the rose is beautiful. I love nothing better than to have a 'project' at home...although painting can be tedious it's extremely rewarding. You can achieve an amazing transformation with a coat of paint! I look forward to seeing the results of your labours. Robx
ReplyDeleteI thought those bottles were for MY collection? We must have gotten our wires crossed.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could do it all but sometimes things just have to slide.
Those roses make it all better though, don't they?

Beautiful--I can almost smell and feel the hot color of the roses and the coolness of the bottles. Good lick with the painting--hope you'll tell us/show us what color.
ReplyDeleteCan't notice dust when there are beautiful fresh flowers scenting the room - paint away!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bottles. Your garden may be wild with neglect but you picked a lovely bouquet. Good luck with the painting.
ReplyDeleteI love your roses! I sure hope you will show us pictures of your bedroom when you're finished!
ReplyDeleteHello Deborah
ReplyDeleteI think there's something charming about a garden which isn't over-manicured and judging by your flowers - everything is thriving.

Hi Deborah! Your rose is a fabulous hue! Love your new bottles too! They have interesting lettering on them, and that terrific beachy color we all love! Thanks for your feedback on my garden table! Nice to know you came by!
ReplyDeleteJudging by what I've seen of your home your bedroom will be gorgeous!!! Your bottles are lovely!
ReplyDeletePlease stop by my blog and enter my giveaway if you have a chance in between coats of paint!!!
Your flowers are delightful, the colours together, simply stunning. Thanks for taking time out of your decorating to show them to us, as well as your lovely bottle collection. Good luck with the painting, love Linda x
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm SO impressed with your dedication. When I'm painting a room, everything else (including the most boring of jobs!) suddenly becomes bizarrely interesting and GRABS my attention!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what it looks like. Will you be sharing?!

You maybe already know I love roses but you will not know that we also have a collection of old bottles mainly dug up from our old garden in the Uk. Such a pretty post today, hope the paiting is going well.
ReplyDeleteDeb - you were so sweet to drop in and share those lovely photos with us before you tackled your painting once again! Thanks for thinking of us - and good luck with the painting! :)

Hi Deborah, it's funny Madelief, also a tea drinker liked the teacups too! I know what you mean about an afternoon perk up, I find I always get a little sluggish at about 4 in the afternoon, but I am a bit of a night-owl! Have a wonderful day, love Linda x
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and I bet the house smells so wonderful with them. The bottles are beautiful as well, great finds! You are a busy lady and I can't wait to see what you are doing in your room.
