More ART IN THE BARN art fair booth flowers hangin’ on & living their best life in a square soda-fired vase.

Today was just beautiful! Clear skies, cool breezes, no humidity & the warmth of the sun on your shoulders. A perfect day to play outside hiking through nature appreciating the beauty all around. The flowers, the trees, the leaves, the butterflies… and the deer! It seemed like we criss-crossed paths a couple times… checking each other out each time! Such a wonderful day playing outside! No better place…

A week later… and my ART IN THE BARN booth flowers are still looking good!
Snip the ends, change the water & put them in a nice vase. I hear they like handmade vases best!!!

Another dahlia almost there…

Looks like Patty is enjoying a colorful morning inside while it’s gray & gloomy outside! Some fresh-picked zinnias along with a morning coffee can brighten any rainy day. Thanks for sharing Patty!

My art fair morning started early… with a surprise bucket of zinnias, marigolds & purple hyacinth bean vine from my pal Cory McCrory’s garden! A great accent in my booth for the wall pocket vases, ikebanas & vases! So pretty… so thoughtful. Thanks Cory!

The flowers turned out great in my soda firing! Now they just need to “grow” some metal stems in time for ART IN THE GARDEN this weekend! Cute as little plant stakes… or an ever-blooming bouquet in a sweet vase. I mean… everyone could use more flowers in their life, right?!

I love dahlia season! Such amazing flowers in a wide range of colors, sizes & petal formations. Thankful for Farmer’s Markets with fresh-cut flowers… and having the “perfect” vase to put them in!!!

Lots of pots… plus ornaments & flowers… all loaded into the soda kiln!!!
