Sunshine and Roses

Happy Sunday~

Theres something so beautiful about the bright sunshine shining through the windows. I especially love it when it happens in my living room. For most of the day, it is quite dark in there ( I don't like that at all) so when the afternoon comes, I know my space will look pretty again.
 The sun comes through the front window. The windows on my South facing windows have trees in front of  them so there is no chance for too much light to come through. 




 This is one of my new mirrors that I got for the living room. It is hard to tell in this picture, but it is beveled glass (LOVE). When I got it, it was black and gold so I painted it Benjamin Moore, Horizon Gray. Of course, I forgot to take a "before" picture:( Oops! The other new mirror I got you can see in the previous picture. It is the little cream one. I used to have two small cabinets that flanked my window. I am so happy with the mirrors.
 As you all know by now, I can't resist pictures of flowers, especially roses. I have cut so......many roses in the past week it is unbelievable. I have bouquets everywhere in my home. (photos to come in a later post). Today I wanted to show you this rose. It is called the "Princess Diana Rose" and it has creamy middle with  the slightest blush pink on the edges. It is so perfect for cutting too:))

Thank you all for taking the time to stop by my blog:)  I love hearing  from you.

Have a fantastic week.

Happy Wednesday

Happy Wednesday~~

I hope your  week is going well. Thought I would share this pic with you. One of my favorites that I have taken. I have altered it with Picnik. 
This is the picture in its regular format. I got this cute little vase from my husband's great grandma (Little Nonnie) It is perfect for fresh cut flowers.
This one has the "Matte Finish" Love the soft edges...
This one is the "Gritty Finish". At first I wasn't sure I liked this, but now I LOVE it. I may make a print of it. 

What do you think???

Enjoy the rest of your week
