Nature in the Home


Hello all.

I've always loved gyp (gypsophila) - a cottage garden plant with masses of tiny pom-pom like white flowers. In a beautiful wedding bouquet or in the simplest of vases it adds an air of romance. 

Sooo pretty (and cheap) it lasts and lasts... the perfect match for our vintage glass bottles.

Very happy to be joining in with Lou from little green shed and her Nature in the Home series.

Why not check out the lovely entries?

  2. Ooh, you've inspired me! I picked up a trio of old glass milk bottles the other day and have been wondering what to put in them. Gyp would perfect, yours look lovely! This is a great little series isn't it?

  6. I absolutely love this! I often take apart a bunch of flowers then put them in a group of three or four mason jars - somehow it's more effective than just putting them in one vase. This display really shows off your lovely vintage glass collection. x

  7. This is beautiful Claire. I love the bottles.

    Here we call that flower "baby's breath" - do you guys use that term too? I used to have a pink variety growing in my front garden. It grew like crazy so one year I pulled some of it out because it was starting to block our sidewalk. Something happened and it never came back - I was so sad.
