Snow drops

As I said in my last post, DS No. 3 and I went geocaching this afternoon, and came across a few patches of snow drops in the woods. They are such delightful little flowers, I just had to pick a few to take home. I put them into a little ventouse, thats a vintage French medical cupping jar. Those little glass things make wonderful little vases or, when turned upside down, little cloches.


I am so ready for some Spring sunshine, soft fresh greens on the trees, and colourful flowers.

Oh what beauty! I can only imagine how divine they smell.
This is such a lovely time of year. My daffodils are all bloomed and so pretty too.

Dear Liz, your photoes are so beautiful, - the snowdrops looks lovely in your french medical glass,and I can imagine how sweet it is when turned upside down as a cloche.
