I have this page from a magazine as the cover to my current 'Ideas & Inspiration' folder, and I love it everytime I look at it. Hydrangeas would have to be in my top 5 flowers, some times during the year they are at the top of that list. This photo in particular has such gorgeous photos, and its so fresh. I think the hydrangea is such an old-fashioned flower, so romantic and blousy and full, and these fresh, vibrant colours just contrast this or something, i'm not sure why I love it so much. And of course, I love the title 'Be Inspired'. How lovely to have this in view while i am working, the only thing nicer would be if they were real. I have 6 hydrangea bushes in my garden, they have just finished up for Winter, so this picture will have to do until they bloom again.


oh how gorgeous Renee! Just absolutely beautiful. xo

I haven't dropped by for a while and it's so lovely to see you blogging regularly again. I read your post about thinking of giving up and I can totally relate to that. My blog has really gone by the wayside recently and I kept thinking should I stop altogether. But like you I do enjoy it. I think the thing to do is not let it become a pressure and just write something when time or inspiration strike. I love the pictures of the hydrangeas. They're one of my favourites too. I went to Cornwall last year in June and they were in every garden in every shade you could imagine. Just beautiful. Also love the images of the ribbons on your previous posts. I have endless ribbons that I love to look at but can hardly bare to use! Anyway, I will check back more often now. Have a great weekend.
