Spring greetings - Fruehlingsgruesse


Bringing the garden into the house...

 ....with remains of lots of pruning..cutting...clearing..

...which live happily together...

...here in a  Napoleon III. cast iron urn from around 1860

    OMG Karin that bouquet is stunning beyond belief! I wish I could bring the spring garden inside but unfortunately it’s snowing here. Those flowers look fabulous in that urn, the whole setting is gorgeous, your home must be really beautiful!

    Liebe Karin,
    unser Garten wird auch jeden Tag ein bisschen schöner.
    (Muss unbedingt mal fotografieren!)

    Ich freu mich morgen sehr auf das Konzert!
    Obwohl so ein Wochenende dann ganz schön anstrengend ist.

    In mir singt es die ganze Zeit!

    Liebe Grüße!
    Franka

    Kedves Karin!

    Nagyon tetszik a blogod, imádom nézni a képeidet. Örülök, hogy benéztél a blogunkba, melyet néhányan Régiségek írunk együtt. A blogolás valóban képes összekötni távoli kultúrákat és ez olyan nagyszerű!

    Dear Karin,
    I translate what I wrote in Hungarian: I love your blog and enjoy looking your pictures. I am so happy that you visited our blog - which is written in Hungarian by several thirdagers. Yes, blogs are able to connect different cultures and this is so wonderful.

    Cecilia
