A little autumn beauty...


This isn't your traditional taste of autumn beauty ~ no gorgeous scarlet and burnt orange leaves ~ but it's a little outdoor loveliness nonetheless. Much to my delight, my Paperwhites are blooming, and a nearby bush is putting out these beautiful dark blue berries. You can see the spiders have been busy weaving their webs through the bush ~ I guess everyone enjoys the simple pleasure of being surrounded by beauty, even spiders.
Wishing each of you a little bit of beauty in your corner of the world...

  2. Just lovely!
    We have a small yellow (summer) flower booming away in our flower bed. It seems so out of place yet, it's nice to see. A reminder that even though winter is coming.. Spring will be back. :)

  12. Lovely! This is the time of year for us to have flowers as temps are getting milder. We are still in the 80's most days but that is so much better than the 120's when nothing will bloom because of the heat. Have a fabulous rest of the day. :) Tammy
