Well it's late in the summer season and Sunflowers are in bloom!
I think they offer a ray of sunshine for any day- even a gloomy one!
I rummaged through my stock of artificial flowers and ended up with this... These were about 24" stems but I chopped away at them to work for these jars.
I was going to put these jars on the plate rack but they were too tall so I finallly decided I wanted a new cheerful design on the windowsill at my kitchen sink.
I've been growing a collection of green glass bottles. This one has a cow on it although I just couldn't seem to capture it well. The little jar has pieces of the lavender that have fallen from my small bouquet of lavender I got at the lavender farm.
Makes me happy!!
That is such a beautiful way to display the sunflowers...on a sunny windowsill with the old bottles. Lovin' it!!
ReplyDeleteps...catching up on what I missed of your posts...love the 'artistic' gate with the wagon rims.
DeleteI love your cheerful sunflowers! You were brave to chop them off. I have some super long sunflower stems and I could use them more if I chopped mine off too. I might now that I have seen yours. They are happy flowers. Sheila

ReplyDeleteI like how you put separate blooms in the jars instead of all massed together. They look pretty in your windowsill.
