Ballet Slipper Pink


I started painting my daughter's desk chair.
Ballet Slipper Pink.




Such a delicate color.
I am not sure what fabric I am going to use.
I am going to go through my stash of vintage fabric in hopes of finding one that has the same color in it.
My daughter ok'd ruffles at the bottom edge.

Before the chair was painted.


Flowers from the grocery store.
Same kind of pink.


In the living room.


Peonies from the gardens.
Same.



In the dinning room.



Roses in my flower garden.
Same.
 

Peonies in the garden.
Same.


Flowers in the pots.
Same.


I think I have my theme color this summer. 
Pink.
With a side of blue.

Have you planted your pots?
What are your colors?

In Bloom



I sometimes have a hard time cutting my flowers to bring into the house.

Except my Peonies.

I know that they will drop their petals and be gone until next year.
So I cut all the remaining flowers.



One pitcher for the living room.


Love the soft pink petals.
 

And the smell is just devine.


And one for the kitchen.

I enjoy them til the very end and the petals are laying on the table.

With such a great rose season, I think they may be coming in next.

Do you cut yours to bring in, or do you just enjoy them outside?

Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping by.
