Sweet Blossoms for Silver Sunday

Our neighbors behind us just happen to have a huge crepe myrtle

that just happens to hang waaaay over our back fence.

Lucky me.

So now I can enjoy them too.

My silver water pitcher,

 a small silver tray that at one time held our mail,

and my silver wedding hand mirror...

white vintage Sunday gloves

and a crucifix and medal necklace

are all together to enjoy a summer Sunday.

The crepe myrtle's sweet scent fills the late summer air.

Delicate white buds and blossoms

...in the Eye of the Beholder

You never know what you'll find at a flea market

estate sale,

or antique mall.

That, to me, is part of the excitement...

looking through boxes,

digging in drawers,

turning over old pages in a dusty book.

What to me holds magic,

can be discarded

by another.

But for just a few dollars

I made them mine.

We found these very old lithograph prints

last year in the back of a furniture booth.

Undoubtedly they had been hidden

in a dresser drawer

for many years.

When found, they were more of a bother than a treasure.

So there they were,

for a tiny fraction of their worth;

beauty,

grace,

divine inspiration...

art

for me

to find,

 enjoy,

 behold.

Their age is showing...

foxing covers the fragile paper,

but they are timeless.

An unexpected gift

for me.

I'm joining in at the French Cupboard
for Vintage Black Friday.
