French Flower Market Buckets

Bon Jour, Mon Amis!
Hope you all have had a great weekend!  Wow, it's hard to believe that an entire week of the brand new year has already come to a close!
Today I'd like to share with you a pair of French flower market inspired buckets, featuring one of my very favorite motifs from the Graphics Fairy. Well, I seem to say that all images from the Graphics Fairy are my favorite!  But, I just can't help myself!  Karen has so many wonderfully gorgeous images to chose from, it's impossible to pick just one favorite!!
 Isn't that label just gorgeous?
 After finding these large tin and galvanized buckets on separate thrifting trips, I just knew that the rose label would be the perfect addition!
 Love the copper toned finish of this bucket.  Can't you just imagine it with a huge bouquet of springtime wild flowers?

 And forgive me if you've already seen the photo below, but I just couldn't resist sharing it again!  I snapped this shot at one of our favorite  flower markets in Paris.  Doesn't the sight of all of those pretty blooms make you yearn for spring?

Hope you all have a great week!
I'm linking up with the Graphics Fairy for Brag Monday

  5. BEAUTIFUL, Donna! I especially love the second one. They will be perfect for bouquets of spring flowers. You picked the perfect label for them. You can always fill them with faux lavender until you can get the real thing.

  14. Hi Donna,
    I love what you've done with Graphic fairys designs!
    I'm sure I have a couple of these tins in my garden shed. I'll have to go on a hunt and do them up.
    Thanks for the inspiration.
    Creative hugs,
