Bringing the Beauty Inside

Yesterday was one of those rare relaxed days around the house. I took a few minutes to cut some of the flowers from my snowball bush to bring into the house for us all to enjoy.



I simply cut the flowers and placed them into a soaked florist square that I purchased at the local Walmart.



The container is one of my favorite ones to use. It is a McCoy vase that I purchased years ago at an auction for a song.



I put the arrangement in the sunroom at first, but then decided that I wanted to keep it on the kitchen table since that is where I spend most of my time.



Bringing flowers in is an inexpensive way to enjoy the beauty of nature that is all around us. It only takes a few minutes and they can be enjoyed for days.



I don't know why I usually wait to do this when I have company coming. It really makes every day feel special. So why has no one else in my family even noticed them sitting on the table?
