Flowers in the Fireplace


They had some fabulous hyacinths at a local garden shop, reminded me of some we bought in Paris.
So I stuck them in the fireplace.  The fireplace is from the 50's when the house was built.


I know the black tiles are not currently in vogue but when I place lights or candles there the reflect them beautifully at night and if, in the spring I place flowers in there they look great against the dark background.



These flowers were a gift from our friends Pauline and John.
The Waterford glasses make great votive holders.
It was a good week for flowers around here!!!!!!!
