Hello Blossoms!

I just had to share with you some more of the thrifty blossoms that have popped up around our home of late! I shared my love of pretty 'weeds' and bargain flowers once before here, and the fascination with flora hasn't stopped. Sometimes I find them on a stroll around the yard or on the way up the driveway to check the mail. My favourites are the ones that B4 gives me, while saying matter-of-factly " Mummy, I picked this flower for you, because I love you." *Melt*


Yellow and turquoise make me smile. I don't think a happier colour partnership exists!

Because he loves me.

Miniature perfume bottles are perfect for a single bud.

Bringing a little sunshine inside.

Another day, another weed. There must be a prettier word for these fuzzy lilac pompoms!

After the first snap, I thought the arrangement needed a little *POP*, so back out to the yard I went for some fuchsia buds. It just so happened that the arrangement took on a heart shape!

So pretty, I can just imagine that this is a coral arrangement under the sea!

A nice little spot on our bedroom water station for this lovely bunch.
This precious weed was a find! On a little stroll up the back yard with Hubs to have some respite from an obnoxious delightful B4, I found this divine bunch rising from the dirt. They closed up pretty quickly once inside, but I managed to snap a couple of shots on our fresh new table setting before they said goodnight.


Like pretty pink stars they just burst out out you! I haven't managed to find another bunch, these are mysterious little ones..

 I wonder what I'll find tomorrow when I walk up the drive......
