late for one, on time for the other....




Almost too late for the Cloche Party!
But, I've arrived!
And I'm going to another party


I promised Marty over at A Stroll thru life
I would come.
This unique wire cloche was found at Tuesday Morning.
The nest with the little blue eggs was purchased
at a friend's shop Stephanie's Shenanigans in Louisville, MS.
I've played around with this cloche.
Just could not find the right item to place under
the wire.  I have tried a candle and have
even tried the rabbits.  But, I believe
the nest looks the best.


It is sitting on top of the buffet under the gazebo.

While taking the photos for the cloche party,
I snapped a few of my bloomers.

I do not know what this little treasure is called
but, definitely kin to moss ross.
I love the fact two bright colors in one bloom.

The geraniums have shown out this year. 
But, I wanted you to see my old church house too.

I turned around to reach for the tripod
and this little fellow had found a resting spot.

Happy Friday
&
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Karen! What a beautiful post! I love your cage/cloche and I do believe those must be little Easter eggs since those little bunnies are so close by. Your blooms are so beautiful and your photography is amazing!
Thanks so much for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Beautiful pictures, Karen! Love the nest and the rabbits! Also the old church bird house is so cute! I got a real bluebird nest (complete with eggs that did not hatch) yesterday. Sad for the birds but the house had to be cleaned before another bird could use it.
