Today was the most excellent day to get out, sunny beyond belief, blue skies, a light breeze and a nice warm temp to hit the skin. It put me in the mood to go to the local nursery to purchase two more orchids to join my one lonely one. It was time for the spring apothecaries..... time to put the Easter eggs away.
The pink magnolia tree out in the courtyard greets me every day.......
I decided to do all live apothecary jars, along with some nest and birds..... lets cross fingers I have a green thumb*****
Puts me in the mood for some Ella singing Spring is Here. She is just flawless in this song.
I just love what you do in these apothecary jars all the time. These remind me a little hot houses! Good luck with them! I have no green thumb. Perfect song for spring too....
ReplyDeleteSublime, the first lady of song ushers in the sylvan season...
yesterday was ella's birthday. pretty jars; you have a talent! and a furry arm too (rawr)!
ReplyDeleteyou should see his legs honey!
DeleteThese are stunning! Puts me in the mood for spring!
ReplyDeleteThe song does seem to match this post! I'm just waiting for the orchids to end up your hair.
ReplyDeleteand how would YOU be under glass?
ReplyDeleteVery purty-full. We enjoyed breezy springy weather whilst mucking about in the pond reno.
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with the decorating!
ReplyDeleteYay for Spring and flowers blooming!!! I love those jars and wish you better luck than I with orchids. The pink magnolia tree is stunning. What a lovely spring post
ReplyDeleteReminds me of a botanist's house Mistress!!! So pretty so usual. these are such pretty photos. I just love them. Spring temps have arrived here, but not beautiful flowers yet, happening very slowly, so I really appreciate you posting these.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason this post reminds me of Poison Ivy.
ReplyDeleteHaving fresh blooms in the home is a wonderful luxury (and makes such a difference) ... it's even better if the blooms come from your own garden!
ReplyDeleteThat flowering magnolia tree is stunning!!
Yeahhhh!!! I am absolutely feeling it!! Nice and fresh pictures. One mistake people make with orchids is they water them to much. Give them lots of light, and water only once every week and a half with a like three teaspoons of water. They should never be saturated.
DeleteYou pictures are magnificent and the apothecary's looks beautiful. Our neighborhood was full of forsythia blooms this weekend while walking around. Perfect weekend to hear some beautiful Ella.
ReplyDeletethe blossoms are gorgeous! I can't wait until my lilacs are in bloom!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely spring touches as always!!!! I would love to get some jars like this for my sunroom.
ReplyDeleteWe STILL don't have any flowers!
ReplyDeleteThe buds are only just beginning to show on the trees.
