Candlelight and Roses

Quite Taken


Initially, I was going to share this lovely find from Goodwill and its transformation.

before

I am thrilled to have found this petite birdcage and its new look.

after

Also, I found this wonderful table runner!


Then when I was searching for how to embellish the birdcage, I was looking through our garden for moss and miniature flowers.


Then there she was. My La Marne bush – bursting with her many shades of pink.


It happens to me each time. I fall for this sweet diminutive rose.


So I snipped a few stems and buds.
I decided to place my sweet little white birds from this spring in and around the birdcage with a little bit of the greenery that came with the cage.


Then I thought to float some of the roses in some of my favorite teacups.


There’s something quite fetching about rose blossoms floating in teacups.


To add to the romance of the vignette, I added two
Green bubble depression dessert glassware with white, round candles.


The few stems I cut were put in this sweet angelic flower vase – to be set by my bedside.


Candlelight and roses were meant for each other.


It began as a transformation of objects
then in the end – I was transformed
by the mood set by the sweet birdcage
surrounded by my dear roses and candlelight.



I hope you’re having a marvelous day and you find delight in the small and the simple things.


I will be sharing this post with these Delightsome blog parties:

I Remember These



He Said…


as he passed the picture window in the living room and saw the Margeurite Daisies blooming in the front garden. He remembers them because they have a habit of falling into his grass and he has to careful move them to mow! 


And boy does he need to mow! Today is the first sun-shiny day after nearly a week of good rain! Everything looks happy!


The  Autumn Joy Sedum is showing its lovely pink self.


The lone zinnia is showing off its late season bloom.


The Impatiens are happier in this cooler weather!


The Bougainvillea seems to be blooming a darker pink since the cooler weather and the shorter daylight hours have settled in.


The old shrub rose – 


La Marne – 


is filled with buds and blooms – 


I love the antique look to these diminutive gems. They will continue to bloom well into November.


The rain and the cooler weather seem to have a second spring affect in my garden.
And I couldn’t be happier!
