Welcome to Saturday Sparks 558!
Starting off today's party with some sweet blooms!
I picked up these pussy willows at the store the other day and the timing couldn't have been better.
It was the perfect lift for this winter weary gal.
In spite of yet another fresh coat of snow, the inside of our home has taken on all the vibes of spring.
And for this, I am thankful.
In case you were wondering, I placed the branches in water to force the buds to bloom and will remove the water next to let the stems dry.

ReplyDeleteIn love pussy willows! Your arrangement looks lovely. I dried some the way you described a few years ago and I still use them to this day. Thanks for hosting us. Have a great weekend. XO- MaryJo
ReplyDeleteThanks, MaryJo! They have such a unique look. I love finding them each spring and tucking them in vases all around the house. All my best ~ Suzanne.
DeleteI haven't used pussy willow stems in a long time. I had forgotten how dramatic they can look! Thanks for hosting the party!
ReplyDelete'Dramatic' is the perfect way to describe the pussy willows, Sandra! They have a look, unlike anything else and put on quite the show. Have a great week ~ Suzanne.

Thank you so much for featuring my tray. And, thank you for hosting the party.
ReplyDeleteSpring has sprung here in the south several times. We'll have an 80 degree day, then a cold snap. Looks like spring is here to stay now & that makes me happy.
Those are really nice. Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteThe features are gorgeous. The colors on the easter tablescape are so pretty, and that embroidery!
