It was all Yellow

Snippets around my home today by me

Yesterday I got some roses from my local rose farm. I usually go for pinks or reds but I decided these looked so pretty. Then I started noticing this colour was already a favourite at home. Funny how your subconscious works.

    Hello Simone,

    Did you know that your yellow roses signify joy and friendship? Your postings bring me joy and I feel I have found a new friend.

    Yellow is such a bright, happy color! And yellow roses are my favorite flower (well, my second favorite actually, my favorite is pink tulips!), and I love how you displayed the yellow roses in the blue vase, such a pretty combination!
    You found some wonderful treasures on ebay, you lucky girl!
    Enjoy!
    All the best,
    Eileen

    mmmm so pretty.
    It is funny because over here in Canada we are going into fall so I feel like I get to enjoy "it all" when I go to the blogs from the other side of the world where spring is in the air.

    All of these yellows are so cheerful and bright! I've discovered that I collect things this way. I bring home a treasure and start gathering things to display with it and then think...hmmm...I think I'm collecting these! :-)

    Have a great day!

    Well done! Flowers in small bunches like that are so much nicer than amassed florist-produced grandeur.

    Yellow roses are my favorite! That is the flower we used in our wedding...33 years ago.
    How nice it must be to have a rose farm where you can cut your own flowers!
    Those duckies are adorable!!!

    Loving all the yellow - i used to swear against it simply because my mum loved it - but I've turned, i love it now as well. You are so clever.

    Awesome to see the little tumbler in use - sadly they are no longer available but thankfully about to make available a new range of them xxx

    yellow is one of my fave go to colors for a little splash of happy. Those roses are just gorgeous, you definitely remind me to bring a little nature indoors. I did a similar post a while back on yellow if you are interested : http://sealaura.blogspot.com/2009/04/and-it-was-all-yellow.html

    Those duck measuring cups are too cute! I always said "red" when asked my favorite color, but when I look around my home I find I tend to surround us in warm oranges and greens.... Hmmm.
