"I am thinking of the lilac trees,
That shook their purple plumes,
And when the sash was open,
Shed fragrance through the room."
~Mrs. Anna S. Stephens, The Old Apple Tree
Because lilacs are one of my favorite things, I'm joining Laurie at Bargain Hunting with Laurie for Favorite Things Saturday!

Oh my, your lilacs are stunning and I love your table vignette. Gorgeous. Hugs, Marty
I think I can smell them all the way up here.
My favorite bloom (along with peonies)!! Nothing says spring like their fragrant scent wafting through the house!

Delores, your lilacs are GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!! I have a lilac bush but have never had one blloom from it. We just don't get enough sun. I LOOOOOVE lilacs too....and love that container you have them in!!!! Where did you find that???? XO, Pinky
BEAUTIFUL! Lilacs are my FAVORITE flower followed closely by roses and peonies! I can almost smell them through the screen! xxoo Diana
Your lilacs are gorgeous and I'm jealous. I haven't had much luck growing the tall varieties this far south. I do have a Miss Kim lilac, which is loaded with buds almost opening, so I'm happy with that. Love your table arrangement. Have a great weekend.

OH! I love lilacs too! When my daughter was born there were armfuls of them throughout the house!! Beautifuk images!
Not only are your lilacs gorgeous, but the table vignette with the burlap runner and all those grand candlesticks is truly yummy. I can just imagine the exquisite fragrance. ~ Sarah

Just looking at the pictures, I can smell their delicious scent! I miss our old yard which was full of lilacs! Thank you for the beautiful pictures!
Oh my..we have the love of Lilacs in common..I have 11 varieties and plan on more...I even attend the Lilac season in Vermont to see what new Lilacs are being introduced..I'm hooked...and need help!
Sincerly,

Beatiful and I am so jealous...mine are ready yet!
Delores, no matter what you do, you do it with such style. Your lilacs are beautiful, and I LOVE what you have them in on the table. Your burlap runner is the perfect contrast for the lilac bouquet. laurie

Love the table with the burlap runner and the unusual vase for your lilacs, very lovely contrasts, love the whole vignette! We have just had the crocus come up here, tulips & daffodils to follow, so I am longing for the scent of lilacs!
Sorry about that anonymous post I thought I was signed in. That was me above!
