Hello and happy Friday to you! I hope you're all doing well. I figured I should put up a post since it's been what..three weeks? Sigh. I don't know what's with me lately. I guess I just haven't been feelin' it. I'm having a lack of creative inspiration or some such thing. Maybe it has to do with winter...I don't know.
It seems like the moment January arrives and the holidays are a thing of the past, my brain starts to think of Spring and sunshine and flowers and all that goes along with that.
Awhile back I purchased some vintage pink books from Tracey at French Larkspur. I'd been meaning to photography them, but never got around to it until now. I bought some roses, mixed it all together and this is what I got.
Very soft, sweet and feminine. I love the color of these flowers. It reminds me of the peonies I love so much. I keep going to the florist hoping to see peonies or ranunculus, my two favorites. No luck yet though. I always wonder what they think when they see me coming...probably dollar signs considering how often I'm there to buy flowers :)
Hope you all have a warm and cozy weekend!

Perfect photos for Valentine's inspiration! That pink book is gorgeous! Lovely photos!!
ReplyDeleteI think we all can't wait for spring...I know it can't come soon enough for me! I bought flowers yesterday to brighten my mood. You photographed yours so beautifully! I adore how you match all your accessories to your flowers...
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful day!

How lovely these photos are and so reminiscent of Valentines Day. Do you have a Trader Joe's near by? They are a great place to buy flowers and often have some lovely things.
ReplyDeletethese roses are so adorable and they match perfectly with your vintage books :)
ReplyDeletehave a nice weekend,

Beautiful photos, as always. I love the vintage books!!! I'm always eager for the new year, but a couple weeks in and I'm feeling blah. I think I have such high hopes for January and get bummed when it doesn't work out like I expected. Also, I'm so ready for spring and some color outside my window!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend!
Wonderful roses, you made great pictures of them!
ReplyDeleteWish you a lovely weekend!
Simply beautiful - soft and sweet, indeed!
ReplyDeleteExquisite! So soothing to look at - thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see your lovely work...I was starting to think you forgot about us:) I keep hoping to see peonies and ranunculus too! I keep picking up spray roses and tulips. Love the last one. Have a happy weekend my friend. Stay warm.

You might not have posted for a month...but your fabulous way with design and photography hasn't waned at all. These are such beautiful images...the vintage book is a lovely companion to the roses.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Tricia! I know you are a big lover of spring and I love seeing your sweet pictures of flowers. You really take the prettiest photos, keep your camera handy, like right there on your counter and just snap everything that makes you smile. Believe me, you will have the makings of a post in no time!

ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous, Tricia. I was lucky enough to have peonies at my Costco last month, I keep going back for more but no luck. :(
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, I always love to see your beautiful photos.

Such beauty here, Tricia!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the after holiday feeling. For me, here, I think it is because the longest, coldest part of winter is still ahead, once the holidays have passed. With this past week being well below 0, inspiration is truly hard to come by. But I know spring will get here eventually, so I just count the days. :-)
Have a wonderful weekend!
xo.
Even though i'm really enjoying the blogging land's snowy shots....i'm ready for some spring and PINKS!!!
