Stop. And Smell the... Hydrangeas!

The other day I noticed we had

some beautiful hydrangeas

blooming in our side yard.

 

 

 

So, I retrieved a pretty cobalt

glass vase and cut a nice

selection from the

hydrangea bush.

 

My husband wants to

know where his wife is.

 

I'm so not a green thumb.

I rarely notice garden

items or make time for them.

 

This weekend, even in the

middle of my office/studio/craft room

makeover, I stopped to smell

the ....well, the hydrangeas.

 

I'm so glad I did!

 

The whole thing makes

me giggle, especially since

the name of my shop is

Bella Rosa Antiques!

(I guess I have to

admit, I DO notice roses.)

Here is what I hope to accomplish

this week.... finish office. Send out

a email alert for Bella Rosa.

Do I smell a sale coming up?

(very possible!)

And take new photos

of the goodies we found

while at the lake.

 

Let's hope I can

take time to smell

the hydrangeas along the way!

 

How about you?

Make time this week

to slow down and

notice something new.
