I've never had cut lilacs in the house before, but I'm loving it. I even took a nap on that couch on Sunday afternoon and it was lovely to be surrounded by the scent.
I'm afraid Matt and his allergies don't have quite the same affection for them, however. I may need to enjoy them at work for the next few days! : )
I would like to try to plant both the hydrangea plants, but for now I put one in one of my favorite gray wicker baskets. I've had it for a few weeks and the buds are turning from pure white to just the slightest green. It will be interesting to see if it continues to change colors.
I put the other hydrangea into an antique sugar tin. The tin will be for sale in the etsy shop hopefully sometime this week - as soon as I can get the photos edited and uploaded.
I also wanted to share the completed farmhouse table I showed you a while back. It was a distressed cream and I painted it white and removed the leaves. I would like to distress it just a little but for now I'm enjoying the crisp white.
The table acts as a drop spot when we come in the door, as it's right off the garage.
It's also the perfect little desk area for paying bills and staying organized.
Hope you all had a beautiful weekend!
{live beautifully}

Hi Courtney my name is Janel. Did the sugar tin sell in your Etsy shop? I didn't see it...
