{yesterday's golden rays}

. . . there are five bouquets of fresh flowers in the living room, all in pretty antique vases, milk glass, vintage silver and crystal, the room flooded with the enchanting scent of petals and blossoms, and with yesterday's golden rays, spring does not feel nearly as far away . . .

{a bouquet of butterflies}

Summer is flutters of pretty greens and citrus shades of fresh yellows and vibrant oranges intermingled with hazy whites drenched with floods of early morning sunlight . . . and there is just something about butterflies that make everything feel like a fairytale . . .
