A Touch of Spring


My new wicker vase became the perfect container for a bouquet of white iris, a gift from my sister-in-law. Just because....

How nice of her!

There is nothing like a touch of spring to brighten the day.

I'm joining Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday.

    Delores, Great coffee table vignette. How nice having a thoughtful sister in law who brings flowers. She must love you very much. Hope you both have a great Spring weekend.

    Love the wicker vase - it made me remember I bought a similar one at Pottery Barn last year - gotta find it! Such a pretty vignette. No surprise coming from you!

    So gorgeous and definitely full of spring vibrancy! I love the contrast of the white flowers and the wicker!!!

    We're in Italy now and hopefully will move into the villa next week--I posted some preview pics a few days ago. We just spent the weekend in Rome and in a few weeks will be in Tuscany for a few days on a winery tour. I know the area will remind me so much of your wine country home/area!

    Hugs,
    Lana
