Autumn Flowers

One little last thing to do, before our family arrived, was one of my favourite jobs, preparing the flowers for the rooms. I’d managed to buy some dahlias at the market, although not as many as I’d thought. I need to learn not to leave them behind the stall once I’ve paid for them whilst I go and do the rest of my shopping, as the flower lady seems to get very confused and inadvertently sells them again. Never mind, I had enough, and she refunded me my four euros for the bunch she had resold.

I made a couple of simple vases up for the rooms, and an eclectic mix of vases for around the rest of the house.

I then made up a little yellow jug of flowers just from the garden. I love the autumn colours coming through in the foliage and the flowers.
