It's a Blue Monday...



For the first time, I am joining the popular Blue Monday gathering. The occasion? Finding this very pretty vase on clearance at TJ Maxx. For $6! How could one leave it in the store at that price? It looks smashing in its new home on my dining room table. For this photograph, I moved it by the window for better lighting. Honestly, it looks great there, too. It's a wonderful piece, with or without flowers ~ I'm absolutely tickled pink (or blue?) with it.
Thanks to Smiling Sally for hosting Blue Monday. Stop by her blog for a list of participants or to join. Wishing you a lovely week filled with lots of beauty!

If you're tickled pink and mix in a little blue, it'll be purple!

Happy 1st Blue Monday, Bella

Just found your blog and it is so lovely! This vase is beautiful. I have been trying some container gardening this year also. We also got the topsy turveys and have tomatoes and cucumbers growing in them. They are doing well. Have you tried them yet? Looking forward to visiting you again soon. Have a great evening.
Many blessings, Jill
