Show and Tell

Welcome to Show and Tell! If you would like to participate, please click here.

This week, I am sharing my favorite picture of my flowers. R and I are always working in our yard. We love it...and are a little obsessed with it looking nice. It such instant gratification to plant annuals...but my favorite thing to plant is bulbs. They are always so surprising and beautiful. Its like you almost forget about them and then they start peeking up reaching for the sun :) I get so excited in March when my Jonquils start peeking through the mulch. So here goes....


We have framed some pictures of our flowers and have them hanging in our master bedroom. Here is my second favorite - its the blooms from our Forsythia bush...


Hope you enjoy viewing my artistic outlet :) Happy Show and Tell!

Lovely! I am most appreciative of your green thumb as mine is as black as coal. :) I've tried so hard to grow things, but my attempts are either half-hearted or just unsuccessful. I especially love how you've framed the pics of your hard-earned beauties. That makes the pictures around your house so much more personal.

It's much more meaningful knowing that you grew them. And they're gorgeous.

Wow, those are awesome pictures (and pretty flowers!). Mainly I'm jealous of your photography skills. How do you do that?! I've tried so hard to take closer up kinds of pictures, and they never come out right. Please do tell!!

Wish you could pass some of that green thumb to me! These flowers are gorgeous; no wonder you take pics of them to hang in your house!

Beautiful.

I have had a few of mine blown up to hang somewhere...you have given me a little push to get off my butt.

Thanks.

I love your art work! I'm always so jealous of people who have those gifts ... I sure don't.

I hope you're holding up ok ...

They are so beautiful. I am not good with flowers at all! I wish I was but they all seem to die.
