Summer Sweet Peas

Hi Everyone
 Happy Wednesday
♥
Today we picked the very last of the
 sweet peas from our garden
So grateful we still have flowers blooming 
so late in the summer 
especially with all this heat

{Love}
their delicate petals and beautiful colors
but of coarse
 the best part is their fragrance 
 so
 fresh and feminine

I placed them in a 
 vintage white ironstone
 creamer next to 
   our newly found vintage turquoise oar 
A fun salvaged find from our walks
on the bay 
someone was going to burn it for a bonfire on the 4th of July
 I  quickly rescued it from the fire pit
It was just too pretty to burn
 The Oar has just the right amount of
 chippy shabby charm that comes from days in the summer sun


~Pretty Summer Colors~
You know what they say......
One persons fire log is another persons vintage chippy treasure

White Wednesday


romantic saying for today

    Hi Pam! Your sweet peas are so lovely! And I love the chippy oar and little ironstone creamer. I have one of those in my collection, too! Want to get some others in different sizes and styles!!
    Have a wonderful week!

    Thank goodness you rescued the oar!!

    I want to have sweet peas next summer. I just know they climb and need to be picked everyday or two. Any other advice for me?

    Thanks!

    Yes, I agree, this oar
    was meant to be yours
    and NOT to be kindling
    for a bon fire!! Love
    how you styled it with
    the sweet peas, too.

    YOU are having fun.
    Enjoy it all!!

    Happy Thursday,
