Linaria at Mia Bella Gardens...

Don't you just LOVE the colours of these sweet flowers...

It's early summer and day by day 

 Mia Bella Gardens is changing as the plants begin to bloom.

These darling flowers are called Linaria

and they are wonderful self-seeders...

They just flower, and flower for such a long time,

with dainty little snap-dragon like flowers. 

So lovely to pick for posies too...

                                                          

An Iris picture just for you...

Here's a bit of photo shop fun for you...

This is a photograph of a pretty iris in Mia Bella Gardens...

I have made the print look like artwork using photoshop.

Enjoy!

KNOBS & a wee bit of shopping..

 My most favourite shop is 'Bed, Bath and Beyond' 

And that is because

I find a bargain EVERY time I visit...

  And look what I found!

Gorgeous knobs to up do a side table and a small chest of drawers...

and the prettiest aqua blue jar.

Love the French Country tone to it...

Love even more the bird on the lid!

So the jar went on the white shelf with the other aqua pieces...

 And the aqua knobs went on the the little chest of drawers.

 Here's a before and after pic...

The bedroom is styled in lavender and white, 

so the aqua just gives it an extra pop of pretty colour!

 I thought the Paris knob would look perfect on this little side table...

so I sawed the old wooden knob off, and attached the new knob...

What do you think? 

Mia Bella Gardens is full of gorgeous spring flowers...

There's scented stock in pinks, mauves and white...

Single and double blooms...

 Clea (Burmese cats are another Mia Bella Passion!)

decided she'd join the photo shoot...

Maybe Clea was after the birds...

No, she just wanted to smell the beautiful flowers!

Isn't she just the sweetest?

Wishing you all a beautiful day today...
