Here, Copy Cat, Here

Super excited to join  DebbieDoos  for her copy cat challenge today!  Ohhh, I had big dreams of one major copy this past week but oh no, not to happen, this J-GRITS was in the bed! Yep, sick...with the crud...ugh! So the big dream copy will save until another day!  I do, however, have a sweet little copy that I tweaked to meet my needs for a springtime breakfast table for the hubby and me!!

(Better Homes & Gardens, March, 2010)


From the magazine..."Turn a tea set into a sweet floral display. Use one kind of flower in the teapot (here, it's white ranunculus) and another in the cup (tulips)." 

Well, I didn't have the 'white ranunculus' so I substituted  buttercups (from my yard) in my tall pot!  Love it!!


Again no tulips...but fresh strawberries will work...


Sliced just right...oh yeah...actually could past for very small tulips 
(if you squench your eyes just a little bit)
















Have a Blessed Day!! And see ya down the junkin' road!!

January Magazine Challenge

I am very excited to join in the party with Debbie for the first magazine challenge of 2012!
I had planned a furniture challenge but the weather has been sooooo rainy I was unable to complete the task and without photos of anything! Oh well, that will become a later challenge!

Oh what to do, what to do...something for valentines'...
Browsing through my copy of Southern Lady I found the perfect challenge...

Luckily I had already picked up roses at the grocery store.  I can't pass by the floral displays without grabbing a bunch!





I quickly gathered my supplies from items I already had on hand...






I did not have the cute little candles or cups that look like bark so I downloaded a free photo of wood, fibrous bark!  Then with the wonderful paper cutter I cut strips to wrap my candles!







 And here it is...
The magazine called Floral Turnover...

And my copy cat...


I can imagine a grouping of these inverted glasses with roses on the table to celebrate Valentines', a bridesmaids luncheon, or anytime I need a quick, simple arrangement! It makes an 'oh so pretty focal point for any spot in your home.'

The original...
