How to Combat the Blahs

How was your Monday? Good? We had a few breaks in the clouds and just seeing the sun for a few minutes lifted my spirit, but I have the song by The Carpenters stuck in my brain....Rainy days and Mondays always get me down... Do y'all remember The Carpenters? Some of you may be too young, but I know the ones around my age will remember them well. 

To combat the blahs and brighten up the inside of the house a bit I went to a couple stores in search of some pretty flowers. 

Some how flowers have a way of making things brighter on a gloomy day.

I bought a few spray roses and the prettiest long stem pale green roses with blush centers called Green Fashion that are in the first photo.

I mixed the pink spray roses with the green ones and tucked them in my newest ironstone pitcher.

I know these pinks and greens look like spring or summer, but they brighten the room when it's gloomy out.

I took these photos with it overcast out, but it was just the right amount of light coming in through the window for these shots.

These sure make my bedroom feel just a bit brighter.

I also bought some darker more fall like colored sprays, too that I will use around the house.

I wanted some seeded eucalyptus, but there was none to be found.

Looking forward to sunny days!

Hope you join me Tuesday at 7pmET for Wow Us Wednesdays!
