arrangements of lovely flowering branches are my favorite way to celebrate and acknowledge the onset of spring.  vases filled with gorgeous salmon colored quince branches are brightening several rooms in our house after an obliging neighborhood arborist allowed us to rescue an arm load destined for the chipper - serendipity! wishing you a happy and serendipitous weekend.

the california poppies are back, bringing beautiful color to the neighborhood and hillsides. i love how just a pop of the color orange has the ability to brighten and energize a space. wishing you a bright weekend.

grateful for the much needed rain even though it brings with it a bit of gray, thankfully potted plants can beautifully enliven a space. wishing you a lively weekend.
