I was arranging some pretty Hydrangeas in a vase yesterday when I noticed how beautiful they looked set against one of my flowery, hand-painted tole trays. The gorgeous colors and intricate shading on the Hydrangea petals made them almost look as if they were hand-painted as well...
Which petals are real?
It's almost hard to tell...
Like a still-life painting...come to life!

I just wanted to say I love your blog. While I'm sitting at my drab desk at work, it's so nice to look at all your prettiness instead of my gray walls : )

The colors in the tray and of course the real flowers are absolutely gorgeous! Love how they look together.

SO cute I love this! I am going to paint a tray (when I find one) to put on a vanity I just refinished.
