Dreamy Roses

 I am really getting ready for spring.  I want blooms!  Is anyone else getting in the mood for blooms? 

I love the peace and stillness of these photos with the contrast of that pink.  The pink is taking on a life of it's own and is much bolder than the rest of the photo.   I wish for you an early spring!

We have barely had winter! I have loved every minute of this warmer winter, although they are calling for possible snow tonight. I'm not sure if it will get far enough south for us to worry about it. Other than the horrible ice a few weekends ago-this has been so great. I am ready for blooms, but I'm afraid that they are coming too early and that a huge freeze will hurt them.

Your photos are breathtaking!

Your roses and pitcher are beautiful! Me, too cannot wait until Spring. I am ready to plant garden and herbs!

So pretty! Maybe Feb. 14th will bring me some blooms? I am lonesome for some flowers, and green grass, and warm sunshine! Love your dreamy roses!

Those roses are so pretty and delicate. We haven't had much winter in Northern Virginia, so I am ready for everything to start blooming if we're going to have such mild temperatures.

It is close to Valentine's Day. Love the simple roses in the sweet creamer.

Susan said...

Sherry the roses are beautiful. I love how you used the creamer to display them.

Sherry, I have been so ready for spring!! We have had such a mild winter that all of the plants are confused! These mild temps make me want to get outside and work in the garden!

Jennifer @ Town and Country Living said...

Very pretty! Gotta love fresh flowers.

With the mild winter we have had so far, some of my roses in the garden are already starting to leaf out! Your pink roses are lovely.

You're very right that the pink is taking over the picture, and I love it.

We never had winter here. Seriously, I looked out my back window, and azaleas were blooming yesterday. Makes me verrrrry nervous.

Well I shouldn't complain since we've only had a total of just over 11" of snow here in Chicago the entire winter and temps have been 15-20 degrees above normal on the average BUT . . . I am so longing for spring! I don't have roses but IF I did, they would be pink like the ones in your pictures.
