Sunday Photo Feature

By Manuela Williams

Red and Yellow flowers.

When I saw these at the grocery store I just had to have them. Couldn’t resist my favorite color combination!
Photo2
It just makes me happy to see them! So I thought I’d share them with you.

    The coupling of red with yellow is one of my favorites. Adding two others favorites, toile and gingham, make this whole picture so beautiful to me. It says, "Happy Home"!

    Hey, looks like you are busy as usual with projects! Love your veggie & fruit garden & that arbor & fencing is a great idea. I'd love to do that somewhere in our backyard to separate areas & plant a Confederate jasmine vine.

    Your garden is looking great. Hope you're doing good, haven't talked in awhile. As usual, I can't keep up either. 🙂

    Hi. I just found your blog. You have a beautiful french country home! I also love toile and french country!
    I am a new blogger and loving it! There are so many very talented women out there!
    I just re-did my powder room in black toile wallpaper on the top half with white bead board on the bottom, but I'm having trouble determining what I should hang for decor on the toile. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.
