I hope you enjoyed today’s roundup!


Stunning! I have 25 hydrangeas and live onnthe eastern shore of Virginia on a barrier island three and a half miles out to sea. I appreciate hydrangea styling ideas!
Hi Kathy!ย Wow – 25 hydrangeas? I can only imagine how gorgeous that looks. You’re so lucky to live on the shore of Virginia.
Thank you so much for the pretty flower displays. They are beautiful and being in Texas, could use some brightness in lieu of the flooding deaths and destruction. I ask, if at all possible, to give to the charity or aid group of your choice. So many are hurting right now. God bless you all!
Hi Debby – it’s such a tragedy what happened in Texas. I can’t stop thinking about it and the girls who were at the camp. I can’t even imagine what their parents and families are going through right now. Thanks for the mention of supporting a charity!
