Butterflies and Blooms on the Foyer Table

 Welcoming May with Butterflies

Hello everyone! Happy May Day! I'm welcoming May with butterflies and blooms on the Foyer table. How many butterflies can you count on this lovely display?

The blooms are located on the pretty faux light candle. The candle gives off a lovely soft yellow and flickers. It's so pretty in the evenings. 

Nothing points to Spring like butterflies, in my opinion. I love watching them fluttering on plants and observing their brilliant colors. I was so very pleased to find this butterfly cloth on a recent thrifting adventure. I just knew it would be the perfect addition to my butterfly foyer table display. The butterfly bag and bottle were serendipitous finds at another store as was the deep purple ceramic butterfly. And how about that colorful fan? This whole display allows me to bring pretty butterflies and blooms indoors!

And speaking of blooms, we have some beautiful rhododendron blooms on our property right now. 

I'm so grateful that these shrubs are blooming once more and coming back after being beaten down during the hurricane 1 1/2 years ago. Last summer they didn't do well but this year they are growing and blooming much better. 

We also have some lovely honeysuckle blooming in several locations on our property. I snapped this photo from our dining room window. 

And The Mr. snapped this photo of my stone walled cottage garden in our backyard. As you can see, the coreopsis, impatiens and coral bells are thriving as is the ivy on the stone wall. We have to regularly trim the ivy as it will rapidly take over if left to its own devices! I really enjoy my little garden all Spring and Summer. 

And before I go, let me share this little black dress and lace cape that I sewed for one of my Barbies. The dress is sleeveless underneath the cape. I need to find some black heels for Barbie but, for now, the gold heels will have to do. A girl's shopping is never done, right?!

Hope you are enjoying butterflies and blooms in your own yard (or home) and that some fun fashion is on your horizon as well. Be sure to share in the comments! 

Until Next Time,
