Stop and smell the roses

Something happened last Saturday. Something that has never happened to me before. It wasn't bad or anything.  I bought myself a bunch of roses. I just felt like treating myself with some beautiful roses, out of the blue.  Seriously, the thought of buying myself flowers never really occurred to me.( I usually get fresh cut flowers from my own garden when it's flowering season). The one thing that  held me back was the "should I, or shouldn't I" kind of feeling. But this time I just went for it.  I'm glad I did,  I think I should do this more often.  It really did lift up my spirit.♥♥♥


This has always been my favorite spot in the house to cozy up and read. Just a perfect place for my roses.


 RK Redoute Roses Mug, coffee pot and a fresh pink rose. Care to join me?


It feels like it was only yesterday I brought  back a bunch of these beautiful roses home. It has been 4 days now, and they are just as fresh as the day I brought them home. Pink and white roses, gorgeous and dreamy. The house smells beautiful.





Wishing everyone a wonderful day.

    The flowers look great in your home, and I'm sure they smell just as wonderful! I'm so glad you went for it instead of listening to that "Shouldn't I" feeling. It's good to be nice to yourself every once in a while! Thank you for reminding us to do the same!

    You were lucky to get such beautiful roses that also smell good! Most hybrid roses don't have any smell, that's one reason I like to buy lilies ;)

    Thanks for sharing at my Bunny Hop.
