The sweetest flower of spring...
...tiny lily of the valley...
...in a white baby shoe.
This was my favorite find this weekend...
The clock face says Made in the USA...
the metal on the bottom is marked Made in Germany...
I don't know anything about it....
...but isn't it really beautiful?
...We have many lily of the valley throughout the property...
I have filled little vases to place them all over the house.
I found the seltzer bottle on the left at the church sale on Saturday...
...three is a collection!
Lots to do this week.
Trying not to set my goals too high...
...in hopes that I can reach a few!
................Thanks Zita for that great tip!
Have a good night and a great Tuesday!
:)
Love those lily of the valley!

Lovely pictures and Lily of the Valley is one of my favourite flowers, I don't think it grows in NSW, perhaps in the mountains. Lucky you with such a pretty garden.

I love the lily of the valley in the baby shoe. That looks adorable! What kind of little glass did you put in there to hold the water for the flowers? A shot glass?
ReplyDeleteI love the lily of the valley in a baby shoe! So cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat great finds, Laura!
ReplyDeleteI just love lilies of the valley, they are such a delicate flower.
Hmmm, maybe parts of that clock were made in different countries, ya think? Wherever it was made, it's gorgeous!
Have a wonderful Tuesday!

I think I'm going to have to find our single, remaining baby shoe and use it for display, now! We have plenty of boots and shoes in the garden housing sempervivums, but I hadn't thought of them as vases indoors! I am so jealous that you have loads of lily of the valley - I have started a tiny colony of it in a dampish patch of our garden, but it is slow to develop and every May 1st I resort to buying another pot to display in the house and then plant into the garden... One of these years, I will be able to pick my own!
ReplyDeleteI hope that your sensible, achievable list of tasks goes very well for you today.
So sweet........that lily's !!
ReplyDeleteHave a great happy day .................hugs from me..........
Oh my dear....such fine items again......
ReplyDeleteOh the blue vase is so georgeous.....but yes how can I expected something else here.....;)
Fine day
Dear Laura, love your lilies very much. Thank you for becoming a follower, I'm much honoured for that!!!!
ReplyDeleteWish you a good week!!

Ich liebe Maiglöckchen .... Auch den Duft ... Habe mir und Gerade gestern Auch EINEN Dicken Strauß im Garten gepflückt. Sie sind so hübsch und so klein.
ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüße Puno / Monika
Love the beautiful flowers! They look like tiny bells to me:) Great finds at the sales, love the seltzer bottles!
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day my friend!
Hi Laura, I just read that you are opening an Etsy! I did and love it. It is scary but I don't know why. After you stop checking every 5 min. to see if anyone bought anything it gets fun. I'm having a dry spell right now. That's ok. I hope you do it. If I can anyone can and I had no help, I had to figure out everthing by myself.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful flowers. You are lucky to have them in your yard.
Enjoy your day!
Beautiful finds! I love Lilly of The Valley, I wish it stuck around all Summer! Have a great week!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl I was obsessed with Lily of the Valley and still am. I buy soap scented like it and lotion too. The scent always reminds my of my childhood.
ReplyDeleteI love the clock too. I love the age on the face and the tarnish on the base...perfect!
That's right Laura, "aim low and achieve your goals!" :) I'm really loving your lily of the valley. Especially in the baby shoe - perfection!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura,
ReplyDeletelily of the valley, I just love them. Today is my mothers birthday, so every year of her birthday I give her something with "lily of the valley" it applys so good to her.
Have a great week
