Hello Dear Readers!
Welcome to another great Monday Morning Blooms!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
Today, I, along with my flower passionate friends,
Lidy, Pam, and Mary, are presenting inspiration
for your home and gardens with beautiful flowers.
The links to their posts are at the
bottom of this post below their beautiful images.
I am a bit “out of the box” today… presenting
A Fall Tablescape Using Blue, White and Green.
Hello Dear Readers . . . Happy Monday!
It’s Monday Morning Blooms Day and I
also thought that I would present my
Dining Room Reveal since the floral centerpiece
was created for the dining room table.
Join me and my amazing Monday Morning Blooms
friends, Lidy, Mary and Pam as we present another
rendition of our “Anything Goes” theme.
The links to their posts are located
below their beautiful images at the
end of this post.
I bring you, Flowers for the Dining Room Reveal
Hello Dear Readers!
Time is just flying by isn’t it?
It’s already March and I know
we are all looking forward to
the beauty of Spring and
seeing the landscape greening up along
with the beautiful colors of Spring.
Today is the first Monday in March
and that means it’s Monday Morning Blooms Day!
Today’s common theme is “Green”!
The Beautiful Greens of March in Flowers!
Hello Dear Readers!
Are you dreaming of a White Christmas?
It’s been cold here;
however, no signs of snow,
which makes this former Florida girl happy!
Today, I am bringing back a White Christmas
flower arrangement to wish you all
a very Merry Christmas with a good news update.
Today, I am having one of my best days
since my chemotherapy treatment. I am not 100%,
still with fatigue and such, however,
well enough to sit at the table
and write to you my dear readers.
I had a truly amazing spiritual experience one night,
that involved my dad.
That overwhelming experience I will explain
at the end of this post.
Because this experience involved my dad, I remembered
a post that I did a few years ago honoring him.
Autumn is a very special time for me and my family.
It was my dad’s favorite time of the year,
a time of harvest (he was an Iowa farm boy) and
Thanksgiving, when all of the family
and extended family gathered together.
My Dad once said, that if he won the Lotto,
the very first thing he would do,
was to buy a house that had a very, very large dining room,
so that the entire family
could sit at one long table.
At a table where we would laugh till we cried,
telling our stories that sometimes our parents never heard!
Hello Dear Readers!
Happy June! Where has the time gone?
It seems like we have gone from Spring to the warmth of Summer so quickly.
Here we are, the first Monday in June and it’s time for another magnificent
Monday Morning Blooms! A day when I join my wonderfully talented and most
creative Monday Morning Blooms friends, Lidy, Mary and Pam
to present some fabulous floral inspiration to you, our dear readers.
Their beautiful images and links to their posts are at the end of this post.
Today’s common theme is containers with labels.
It was easy for me to decide what containers to use today. I present:
Flower Arrangements In Vintage French Canning Jars
Hello Dear Readers!
Hope you all had a great Memorial Day Weekend!
We traveled to Florida to attend my Great Niece’s graduation and the added bonus
of visiting with my mom and my siblings and their families.
On my way down we stopped off I-95 to meet up with our dear friends to have
lunch and to pick up some great pillows
that my friend JoAnn had picked up for me.
You shall see those pillows at a later date.
When there is time,
I always try and stop at one of my favorite shops on the way home.
The Plantation Shop, on Amelia Island, Florida.
I always find some treasures there
and this time was no exception. My purchase led to:
Antique Bamboo Tables Added to the Dining Room
Happy Monday Dear Readers!
It’s one of my favorite Mondays as it is the first Monday of the Month

Lidy (FrenchGardenHouse), Mary (Home Is Where The Boat Is), Pam (Everyday Living)
and joining us on the first Mondays of each Month, is our friend, Yvonne (StoneGable).

Today our common theme is using one type of flower. One, for the first, number one,
Monday Morning Blooms of the year.
My arrangement is A Mom’s Inspired Bouquet. It is one of her favorite flowers, the Oriental Lily.
Hello Dear Readers!
Are you dreaming of a White Christmas?
We had an early for us snow event a week ago.
It doesn’t usually snow this early in the season. It was a bit of an inconvenience but pretty!
Today, I join the wonderful and talented ladies Lidy, and Mary of Monday Morning Blooms
to bring you some beautiful floral inspiration.
I want to thank you all for entering our Lynch Creek Farm giveaway
and congrats to all of the winners!
Lidy’s and Mary’s most elegant images with their links are at the end of the post.
A last but certainly not least sort of thing!!!
Our common theme this week is “White Christmas”
Be sure to visit their exquisite arrangements that will KNOCK YOUR MITTENS OFF!!!
Unfortunately, Yvonne and Pam were unable to join us today; however, they will be
back for Monday Morning Blooms on January 7th. One not to miss.
Hope you enjoy my White Christmas Centerpiece – Monday Morning Blooms.
Hello Dear Readers!
Today is the first Friday of the month and that means it is Floral Friday!
Wow did the month of October fly by!!
Today I am joining my sweet and talented friends of Floral Friday,
Lidy, Mary and Pam presenting our creations of a Harvest Celebration.
Their links are at the end of the post under their respective beautiful image.
A tremendous amount of beautiful floral inspiration is here for you today
to enjoy and hopefully help you create one of your own!
I am a bit of an out of the box type of person, so I thought I would use
some colors that I used last Fall….lavenders and plum.
