Now that the lilacs are in bloom,
she has a bowl of lilacs in her room.
T.S. Eliot
It is the season for the sweet, sweet Lilacs! Those beautifully hued, intoxicating Lilacs. On sunny Spring mornings, their sweet fragrance hangs in the air, bewitching me, inducing me to cut a bunch or two, to fill many a pretty vase.
These enchanting beauties are blooming ever so prettily in our garden of the prettiest hues; a soft lilac and a deeper purple.
Isn't this canvas pretty?? I found this gorgeous 'painting' in a cheap shop, The Reject Shop, for $5!!!!! Had to, had to take it home with me as this impressionistic-like painting of overspilling Lilacs and Snowbells is so, so very me. Of course this pretty felt at home immediately, in our humble abode. =)
These panicles of much-branched inflorescence are giddily, heavenly.
Our garden at the moment, is truly a vision in purples!
Pretty embroideries always beautify everything.....even, dare I say it, a pretty Lilac or two.
Swirls and swirls of lilac hued, pretty ribbons; so very salavatingly luscious!
Aah yes, the sweet, sweet scent of Lilacs captivates me. Vases of these beauties permeate the rooms in our humble abode, both in form and scent, evoking a sense of calm, a sense of restfulness.
Have the most splendid of weekends, lovely ladies. Take time to stop and drink in the flowers, perhaps pick a few and pop them in a pretty vase and think upon blissful things.
Until the next time....................
