I WISH I could say these breath-taking PEONIES are from our garden.
I went a bit flower CRAZY when I stepped into our local TRADER JOE'S and saw these lovelies.
As the blooms open, I place them in mason jars spreading their beauty to each room in our home.
Yes, I love JOE!

Fresh flowers always inspire me to decorate. The PINK HYDRANGEA plants are from....TRADER JOE'S, of course. I placed 3 large plants in my old dough bowl (thanks, Janet!)
I added a candle wrapped in a "sweater" I made, a metal crown, a Madonna statue, a few twigs, books...
and a vintage birdhouse (thanks, Nikki!)
I love these vintage player piano scrolls. Thanks, Bev and Nick!
On the other side of the dough bowl I placed another Madonna statue inside a glass enclosure I filled with old books. I'm sure my husband is wondering why there isn't room on our dining room table for plates!
I also made a few changes to the living room. See what fresh flowers can do?
I moved our small round table and rustic chair from near the armoire to a cozy spot behind our overstuffed chair.
This yard sale find has a new home in front of our overstuffed chair. Love the original chippy paint and the New York shipping tag on the bottom. The storage is also a PLUS!
I purchased this old basket from the Topanga Vintage Flea Market (Thanks, Marilyn!) While our fireplace isn't in use, I like the basket on our hearth. I lined the basket with a curtain panel from Jeanne d'Arc Living which you can find here.
Yes, I love JOE! He sells gorgeous flowers and motivates me to rearrange our home.
