Living Room Vignette B and A

Hello everyone,

It's been hot here for days. I have cabin fever, and when I 

rest in the afternoon, I dream about my fall garden. 

I can't wait until the weather cools down and I 

can go outside and start digging up plants and moving  

them to a more conducive place in the garden.

Being in the house all day, I took some pictures of 

my new fall vignette on the sofa table.

All summer I had the white candles, mercury candle holders

and mercury vase with pear blooms.  Now I have

three vases with hydrangeas drying. 

I follow the decorating rule of "have things you love in your house."

I do love my wildlife artwork. 

When the hydrangeas dry completely,  I will use them in 

a basket in my guest room. There are a few more

still on the plants outside.  This table is a great

spot to decorate and dry my blooms at the same time.

I have a wooden wheelbarrow under the table, filled with 

last year's dried hydrangeas.

 

I have tried different methods of drying the beautiful blooms.

This method has worked best for me.

Fill a vase with a small amount of water.

Remove all leaves.

Put the flowers in the vase and leave them

in the water, until the blooms, are completely dry

and the water has evaporated.

In a couple of weeks. I will be transforming our country

home into my most favorite time of the year.

FALL is coming soon.

Joyously,
Betty
