Although I seldom decorate with pink, sometimes it just fits the mood. This time of year when there are flowers outside, it is so enjoyable to have them inside as well. So many times I look for something different
to put cut flowers in. I love these antique blue bottles which I use often like this.

Since I just got most of the flowers in the ground, I wasn't quite ready to do a lot of cutting yet. But I had a few flowers still in very good shape from Mother's Day bouquets. And the ones that were in the best condition just happen to be pink. And they looked really pretty once I paired them with the antique bottles.
This display added such a fresh feeling of summer to the living room. The flowers were on their way out the door and the bottles I've been collecting one or two here and there over years. Not one penny spent but a totally new look to enjoy! Of course it will be time soon to bring in some blooms from outside. And that will be another reason to use those wonderful little bottles.
See Y'all Soon~

I have many antique bottles in storage waiting for our house to be built. They were collected by my boyfriend when he was younger and only re-discovered a little whie ago when his parents moved out if their family house and went through everything. Seeing this post makes me excited to wash them and out them on display! So beautiful.
