lilac-love

 









When art imitates life....
Both the painting and the white box were thrifted.
The lilacs grow beautifully free
outside our kitchen window

    I really like lilacs but they don't grow well here by the Bay. Someone told me they need colder winters but I don't know really.

      I wonder, too, what it takes. Seems some years are better than others. I've thought it might be because of how we trim them - kind of haphazdly, I'm afraid to admit :)

    Wish I had lilacs. The painting and box are great. It so much fun to decorate with thrifted items.

      Hi, Susan! We only have a couple of bushes, but they sure are FULL of blooms this year!

    Oh this brings back a sweet memory. When we were first married there was a lilac bush outside the kitchen window of the small house we rented. The blooms on it were white though. Yours are gorgeous. I can almost smell the flowers from the picture. :)
