But today, while outside, I found a large Thistle.
The flowers are quite pretty.
But WOW be sure sure to wear thick gloves when cutting them as...Ouch!
They are quite "prickly".
They sure make a pretty bouquet though!
I also picked up a few lavender bottles this past week.
Lavender...I do enjoy growing it!
I love its fragrance as well as beauty.
So I guess I should restate what I said.
Purple isn't one of my favorite colors but I sure do love it in flowers and glass bottles!!!

I love old bottles too! I see you posted a white wednesday. I'll have to check it out. I did a few awhile back really miss it!
Have a great Friday.

Have not thought of making a bouquet out of the thistle! Hmmm ... will have to give it the old try. Lovely bottles & arrangements.
Have a lovely summer's eve ~

I feel the same about purple...it's not a favorite, but when it' good, it's good! I gathered thistles earlier this summer and found out about the thorns too.
Oooooh! Love those bottles and the flowers in the white bucket are just yummy! Beautiful whites, purples, and post!!!
Thanks for sharing,

Gorgeous pictures, Debbie! I'm with you... I wouldn't have a purple couch or purple walls, but I LOVE purple flowers, and those bottles are gorgeous! You always inspire me to find new things to collect. :)
Have a great day!

I am not a big "purple in the house person" either. I do love flowers however! Thanks for sharing.
