Things I love ~ Summer colors at the market

A few lovely things in pretty summery colors I spotted on a market stroll last week..

Dried rose buds..

which make a lovely pot-pourrie...

cherries from Provence

and dried hibiscus flowers.

Adding a pic of the oleander growing in my garden, the color is just so pretty!


Have a fabulous summer everyone!
