Sweetly scented

I bought some little hyacinths yesterday to make a couple of table decorations. I just love hyacinths at this time of year, they not only look good, but their scent is very sweet.

I had bought a couple of old terrines earlier in the year from vide greniers and this was a perfect way to use them.

I potted them into some compost, then covered the top with moss. To add a seasonal element I cut some short pieces of pine to use with some dried white flowers I had, and positioned them around the edge.

I’d bought a battery powered candle from ikea last week, so I’ve added this to the centre of one, along with some rosemary for added scent.

All rather beautiful and very festive, it will look lovely on the Christmas table.
