Hi friends
I hope you're having a nice week so far.
When I was out and about yesterday I bought a few dozen roses.
Ok I admit it..actually I bought four dozen..yes I think I'm addicted. Lol.
I've been sick with a cold, so getting out and buying roses made me feel a little better.
I took a few photos this morning while the living room was filled with light.
I love the colour of these roses.
The other roses I bought are in my dining room.
Maybe I will share in another post.. or are you getting tired of my roses by now?
Lol.
My little Claire had to stop and smell the roses..
I just love her..
I love taking photos of items on my chippy farm table..
it creates a neat backdrop I think.
My favourite Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Rosary
We purchased another chair over the weekend so now we have one on each side of the farm table.
It really helps to balance the room.
(I love white slipcovers....so easy to keep clean.)
~ Have a wonderful weekend everyone! ~

Rachel

Beautiful, Rachael. I love the photo of Claire smelling the roses. Feel better soon!
Colds are so annoying because they can stay forever! Hope you feel better soon...it certainly hasn't affected your photo skills!

Absolutamente maravillosa entrada!!!
adoro las rosas!
Hi Rachel!
It is SO beautiful in there. I love the pink roses on the farmtable...I really love how all the stems look in the jar.
At least you have a cozy and beautiful to snuggle up in when you don't feel good. A comfy white chair next to some roses has to make you feel better. :)
Your blog is so bright and cheery...love the new look.
Thanks so much friends! I appreciate each and every comment! xoxo
Hi Rachel
your home is stunningly beautiful how do you gals keep everything so white and fresh? Looks gorgeous. Hope you are feeling better. I love that rosary

Your photos are beautiful and you are right--the chippy table looks fantastic as a back drop. Those roses are gorgeous--enjoy them!
The roses are so pretty on your chippy table! And the chair is beautiful. I just did a room with slipcovered furniture and I am just waiting for my daughter, who does her homework on the sofa, to get pen on it!
Have a great week, Rachel!
XO,
Jane
Rachel, is that from Ikea? you always do such a nice job in your home. It makes me feel happy when I come over and visit. hope your doing good
Pattie

Love the new look to your blog, Rachel! Simple, clean, and very chic! :) LUV that IKEA chair!! Wish I had and IKEA close to me...though it may be a problem. I'd end up living there.... lol!
That lamp is so unusual and so pretty! Is that one of those beaded lightbulb covers...?? Hugs to you, sweetie!
xoxo laurie
THanks friends!! :)
And Laurie yes the lamp is a $10 thriftshop find a few years ago and I recently bought the antique beaded bulb cover from my favourite antique shop, Whimsical Whites..I love it! xo
Beautiful roses, Rachel. A home can never have too many flowers, don't you think? That photo with Claire is so cute! Hope you feel all better soon. hugs ♥
Love the picture with your sweet kitty! I've collected Rosaries for many years and love Rachel Ashwell's large one that you have. I picked one up recently at an antique show here in Calif. not quite as big though! I hope your cold gets better soon, mine has lingered since mid December...ARG!
Your photos are just gorgeous. Will never get tired of your roses.
Hugs Bente
No, off course I'm not sick of it. Roses forever. Right...!
I will put a phote on my FB.
Have a nice day and I hope you feel a little bit better.
Cheerio, Sylvia
It is just beautiful, Rachel.

I never tire of viewing roses so keep on posting! Your kitty looks so sweet, she looks a lot like our cat Pepper (who passed away last year). I've been seriously thinking about adopting another cat :)

Love the simple beauty of your room, Rachel.
The roses are gorgeous!
xxoo
I never get tired of roses and yours are beautiful! I love seeing Claire, too. I was going to ask if the chair was from Ikea but I see that you said it was. I am thinking about purchasing a couch from them, maybe a chair now too! Yours looks perfect! Are they comfortable? Decisions, decisions!
Gorgeous photos.

Your roses are so pretty...they make me yearn for spring!

Hello Rachel!
Your photos are so beautiful! I love each one of them. :) Your new chair looks just gorgeous by the little table, too, by the way! Isn't it amazing how putting something new in a room almost makes the whole room seem new and fresh? And I completely agree on white slipcovers! :)
I am sorry to hear you've been sick with a cold this week! I hope you feel all yourself soon! I know what you mean about getting out making you feel better, though! So glad you could get out and buy those beautiful roses!
Blessings,
Jenni

HI, I LUV THE ROSARY & YOUR "FARMTABLE" IS ACTUALLY THE BOTTOM OF A BAKERS CUPBOARD. GIO
A white backdrop with splashes of pink is so soothing ...........and roses do pink so well with their layers of rolled petals.
Bon weekend.
I never get tired of roses !! they are so nice...your photos are lovely ! Gail x
Just beautiful Rachel :)
Love the pale and softness....The beauty of simple.

XO's,

Sweet little Claire! No, never too mnay roses! ♥
love your kitty! She is so cute!:)
Was wondering about the new chair you bought...is it from Rachel Ashwell? It looks so nice and I am also planning on buying an armchair for the living room, but I am trying to decide between her Large Squishy II chair, Beecroft or Grand Chaise. All seems so comfy and practical.
Rose is my favourite flower. I like all your all image. Its so lovely and pretty. I feel so happy after visit your post.
Soldes 2012
