Lavendar and Purple

On the way in the house I saw something blooming and found my Corsican Violet. It was windy so I pinched it off and brought it in the house to enjoy. There will be more very soon.
It is nestled in among some rocks and I'm hoping there will be some new plants from last summer's seeds.
I'm also loving my miniature iris. They started blooming on April 1 - always early!
They are only about 3 inches tall.
Today's flowers are also the colors Alex and Sarah are having for their wedding. We seem to be collecting things each time we go shopping. Ribbons, cupcake papers, program papers, punches, embossing ink and powder, etc. I'll not be seeing my table top for a long while!

Hello Marilyn,
What pretty flowers blooming so early in the springtime! Mine are only showing off their tips of leaves yet.
The milk glass or fenton is wonderful for your daughter's wedding. You got some wonderful bargains! And what a treat to find the Lavender Rose mug for under a dollar!
Thank you for sharing the link for painting chairs. I will check it out. Thank you for stopping by and leaving your nice comment. Hope you have a fabulous week.

Blessings,
Sandi
