Summer lingered on this year. And then it was over. I had hoped that the fuchsia in my urn at the front of the house would keep blooming for a few more weeks, but suddenly, like the Summer sun, it started to fade. That in between season - we are still two months away from Christmas urn displays, summer flowers are wilting and fall wreaths are appearing on doors. So off I went to Sheridan Nurseries to see if I could find something beautiful to bridge the gap between late Summer and Winter. Sheridan never disappoints. Although there is very little for the designers to work with at this time of year, I found a beautiful display that I added a couple of pops of colour to with two faux yellow flowers and a sprig of orange (also from Sheridan Nurseries). Voila! Every time I open the drapes in the morning, or I am leaving the house or coming home, it fills me with with happiness. And isn't that what it's all about? Life's little luxuries that make every day a bit brighter!
