Love them. They are so delicate and pretty and the fragrance just sweeps me off my feet…
You may have noticed on my post yesterday, I had a little peony bouquet on the breakfast table. Those were brought in fresh by my husband on the big anniversary day ;) Score! How did he know that would make me happy? They certainly are special, they were in my bridal bouquet after all – and since then, especially, they are magical.
Well, the peony craziness continued around the house, filling up the rooms with the most beautiful aroma. Ahhhh….. I just wish they lasted forever….
I picked up this cool vintage/ rustic milk bottle carrier at a local shop, and since then, I never run out of ideas on what to put in there. This time, of course huge buds of peonies poured out of recycled juice bottles.
The look: a rustic, modern and chic centrepiece.
And a little bouquet went into the living room also, of course.Now you get a glimpse of my new sofa! The re-decorating is coming along…. I’m just stuck on the wall frames – but that is a whole other post ;)
Have a lovely day everyone. Thanks for stopping by ;) xo

Ok. I am officially on the look out for an old milk bottle carrier. LOVE the look of the flowers in each of those bottles. ~sigh~ And the pretty little pops of pink peonies all around your house is dreamy! :)

Love peonies! My mother in law has some and I can never resist shoving my face in them to take a big ole’ whif of their lovely scent. The color and texture of your couch is awesome! I love the chaise at the end. Where did you get it at again? I thought you mentioned it before but can’t remember.

Thanks Ashley.
Oh you may have a hard time getting this couch ;)
It’s up from Quebec I believe.
