What did I buy at Webster?
This lovely lavender tinted bottle.
I love its tall and interesting shape.
The seller from New Hampshire said he retrieved it
from an old dump in the mountains.
Won't it look lovely with my lilacs this spring?
In the meantime, I played around with it
and one of the purple bottles I found at Renningers in January.
Hope you are having a good weekend!

Where is Webster? Is it in Florida? I have been thinking about making a drive to Mt. Dora to Renningers. I am hoping it is worth it. I have heard good things.
Wanted to let u know I'm praying for your mom. Take care.

Some splashes of color in blogland, brought to us all by Laura at 52 Flea. There is something so calming not only about lavender flowers, but lavender color as well. The perfect name for such a wonderful color. xoxo tami

Beautiful bottle and photos!
What a treasure! It will sure look divine with your lilacs, ... it looks wonderful even empty.
Laura,
Just bee-youtiful! These are colors that I live with and I love them (add a little grey and seafoam green to the mix). The pictures with the white backgrounds look like paintings. Is this some magic you learned in your photo classes?
Hugs and prayers,
Suz
This is so pretty! the purple and pink look great together!

Beautiful! why would someone ever put that in the dump!?
Very interesting bottle. I would love to know how old it is and what came in it...if only it could talk.
Best wishes,

Beautiful bottle, Laura! Such a gorgeous shade of purple!

Lovely hue of Lavender this bottle is. Here in the AZ Desert when certain bottles are left exposed to the intense heat and sunshine they often turn lovely shades of Lavender.
