I love Friday Finds with Kim Klassen ... "it is a place to gather and share ... a place to cherish life's simple pleasures" ... doesn't that sound like such an inviting place?
Oh my ... friday once again. It has been a very difficult week. Sickness in the house (pass the kleenex please), a major snowfall to shovel while my hubby was out of town in sunny California (okay, he was on business, but still it was warm and he was near a beach), fog as thick as a marshmallow and now the high winds.
So glad this week has come to an end.
Valentine's Day may be over, but my anemones are still blooming on! I adore their soft delicate petals and the stamens make my heart just skip a beat with their amazing pop of color.
I just love to find a flower that makes me smile ... don't you?
If you have a few moments, be sure to click on Kim's adorable button that will lead you to more delightful friday finds!
until next time...

ReplyDeletePerfection! I love getting up close to flowers! There is so much I don't notice until I get in close. Love the quote too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous shot. I immediately thought of how it would be so beautiful framed...
ReplyDeleteI adore anemones so much also, such wonderful deep colors to choose from. I hope the sickness leaves soon from your house.

This is a stunning capture! I love the pop of blue/purple in the center. So unusual! I'm happy this week is over as well, and hope those in your house are back to being well soon.
