There's nothing like getting fresh flowers to lift your spirits, especially this time of year! So today, I thought I'd share with you some of the gorgeous blooms that I've been given since having surgery last week.
Hubby brought me the most beautiful bouquet of yellow roses! I adore yellow roses, though I don't think he realized that, he just made a lucky guess! I am doing to dry them and save for a special project!
I love taking close up photos of flowers. It's so easy to miss all of the beautiful details if you don't take the time to really look at them!
My sister sent me this gorgeous bouquet of spring time flowers, I love them! Pink and white flowers are my absolute favorite!
I wish you could smell the stock! Their spicy scent is absolutely amazing!
And just look at that stunning lily!
My mom sent me this lovely basket filled with a beautiful pink azalea, and a kalanchoe (I think that is what it's called??)
How pretty!
My sweet friend Cindy over at Cindy Adkins Whimsical Musings sent me this gorgeous card that she made! Cindy knows how much I love blue! Just look at all of the details that she put in it, love the key and the mannequin!
Cindy also surprised me with this beautiful bracelet, I love it! More blue:) Can't wait to wear it! Thank you, Cindy, you are the best!
My sweet neighbor lady brought me down a couple of primroses today. Aren't they pretty?
Now our house is looking so cheery, it almost feels like a greenhouse here:)
Yesterday I went to the doctor and had my stitches removed. It was my first big outing since the surgery. As a treat to myself, I stopped at several thrift shops for some much needed "thrifting therapy". I didn't find alot of goodies, but I did manage to find several small pretty picture frames that I'm going to paint and put in my Etsy. Picture frame collections are one of my biggest sellers, so I'm always on the hunt for more! I also am always searching for wood items that I can transform. I found these two pieces below. They may not look like much now, but wait til you see their "after" shots! I thought the vintage wooden box had great potential, and I was super excited to find the jewelry organizer, as I'd been looking for one for quite some time. I'll be sure to share their transformations with you!
Hope you enjoy the rest of your week!

Such pretty bouquets and what a gorgeous card and bracelet. I hope your appt went well and your leg pain has eased. I'm glad you were able to muster some thrifting.
Hugs!
Your flowers are beautiful and that Cindy is something else, isn't she? She puts most of us to shame!
Can't wait to see your finds all prettified. I think that round one used to hold measuring cups or spoons, didn't it? xo Diana
All of your floral arrangements are so pretty, Donna! So glad to hear you are feeling well enough to do some treasure hunting.
Have fun with your projects.
xxoo
Oh what gorgeous flowers and gifts from Cindy! I adore that basket of pink azalea! Those would surely make you feel better!

Love,
Cindy
I'm so happy to hear that you are feeling better and even felt good enough to go treasure hunting!
All your flowers are so pretty...they show how much you are loved!
XO,

Well, aren't you just the lucky gal ... getting all those BEAUTIFUL floral arrangements and jewellery to boot! I am thrilled to hear that your stitches have been removed and you were even 'up' to do some thrifting! Good for you! xox
Hope your leg is feeling better. Glad you felt like some shopping therapy!
The flowers are gorgeous, you are loved by so many.
Donna, your flowers are all gorgeous! Glad you were able to stop at some thrift shops for a bit! We women need RETAIL THERAPY.
Got to get back to my new project for you.
Love, Karen
Such lovely flowers and thoughtful gifts! I'm glad you are out-and-about and able to do a little thrifting!
I think using the teaspoon stand with the 4 hooks as a jewelry organizer is a good idea. I registered and received one just like it for my 1977 wedding!!! Wish I saved it for such a modern use!!
Donna, forgive me but I didn't know you had surgery. I am so sorry. I just haven't been blogging too much because I've been working long hours. I am just so thankful to hear it all turned out ok and that you are beginning to feel better. A little thrifting is the best medicine! The bouquets and gift are gorgeous and I'm quite certain help lift your spirits. You are so loved and appreciated. XO
Your flowers are all so beautiful!!! And also the sweet card and bracelet Cindy made for you!!
I am glad to hear you are doing well after your surgery

Yellow roses are my all time favorite, but the others are so wonderful, too! Makes everything smell so good and who can't smile around that?
Glad you got your stitches out!
Hi Donna- Just caught up. Sounds like it went better than expected since it was done laproscopically(sp?)I think i just made that word up like a desperate housewife! My results were fine and I enjoyed the great sleep after the procedure. laura@imnotatrophywife.com
thank you again for your sweet emails!
What a lovely post! I agree about pink and white flowers - pink tulips and pink roses are my favorite flowers! Such beautiful gifts from Cindy - she's a doll, isn't she? I hope you're feeling much better, Donna.
Hugs, Cindy
