On my blog,
The question I am most often asked is...
(click photos to enlarge)
What will I do
when there are no more roses in my garden?
Well, we are getting pretty close to finding out...
On rainy days like today,
when I am stuck inside...
It's important to me to still feel connected to the garden...
So I bring it inside anyway I can
and I don't mind going faux...
I draped faux Eucalyptus over the dining room mirror...
I bet you thought that mauve and plum Eucalyptus
was real ;-)
In the background you can see the fall branches
I swagged on my archway..
I shared that post with you
here last night...
Silk white roses mix with dried
in little silver cups...
A swag of Silk Hydrangea
adorns my headboard...
Sweet cozy fall dreams in my cottage tonight...
Tonight I am joining
Cielo for Show Off Your Cottage Monday
and
Vanessa for Inspiration Friday
Thanks for stopping by today!

Hi Bella! Oh, you do have gorgeous roses! You've set up some lovely vignettes! I'm so glad you don't mind the faux ones too. That's mostly what I use! :)
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I can't wait until you start building snowmen!

Bella, What a great way to bring the garden indoors. Love all the roses, dried or silk they are perfect. Take care and I hope you have a wonderful week.
WOW! They all look real: ) Have you ever watched the movie Practical Magic with Sandra Bullock? I SO love that house on there! But...did you know that all the flowers surrounding it..those lush cottage gardens...are all faux?? Amazing!
Love all your ideas...makes me want to get off my keister and get some things done! lol!
Have a fab week :)

Bella, your ideas continue to inspire...HHL
Hi Bella
I love the headboard and how you draped the faux hydrangeas - very romantic.
I also see the unnamed thingy has crept into another post. :-)
Hope you had a good rest this weekend and did some things for you.

Those dried white roses in the silver cups have stolen my heart.....so pretty!

Faux can be very pretty as long as it is quality material, like silk. I love the swags and the pretty silk roses in the silver cups! Beautiful!
XO,

Dearest Bella,
Indeed, nothing wrong with quality 'faux' roses or whatever. As long as they are not in a tacky color or fake state; that turns me off more than anything else. The same with overly fake scented candles... Nothing beats the real thing unless it is a darn good life-like replica!
Have a great week and chilly greetings from Georgia,

Sorry about the rain! We're having the kind of fall weather that NM is famous for. Come on down! It obviously makes for some lovely moody lighting for your pretty photos. JQ to YOU
What no BRIGHT BLUE roses with shiny, bright green leaves? Or some of those Yellow/Orange like Nature never intended ones? Couldn't you find them at Walmart? Don't you think they'd make an especially nice jarring note there amongst all your white? What? Maybe I should buy some myself? Well, maybe I will. I think they might make a nice Christmas present, don't you? Just say the word and I will whisper the secret to your husband so he can fill a vase for you for Christmas. Bella-It is as beautiful in your blog tonight as it is every time I visit. Hugs- Diana
Guten Morgen Bella
Ich brauche Rosen auch für mein Wohlbefinden, unbedingt. Und deshalb habe ich mich so sehr über meine "Novemberrose" gefreut.
Deine Bilder sind wieder zauberhaft und tun meiner Seele so gut, danke. LG Claudia
You are MAGIC :)

Hi Bella,
How truly lovely! Your headboard is beautiful..I have been looking for one but have not found what I'm looking for yet. I adore all your touches of the garden inside your home.
Have a sweet day and hugs~Elizabeth
Hi Bella.... Then you wait for coming spring who is not far, just after the winter... and your garden will again full of roses, full of hopes and happiness... Am I right:).
Beautiful flowers and beautiful post like always, your headboard look so adorable, a fantasy of love, hope, dream and romance.

Hi Bella,
If you can't have the real ones from your garden faux is the next best thing!
It is always so pretty at your house.
Take care,
Carolyn
Lovely and beautiful!
A Kiss
Beautiful..I love blogs where the post is so lovely..
Just lovely Bella. While I am not using faux in my house I know there are now some beautiful ones made with paper and they look real.
Have a nice week dear Bella and thank you to share these beautiful pictures.

Now THAT is the way to go "faux"! I absolutely love those touches around your gorgeous home and would love to know where you found that faux eucalyptus. Thank you so much for joining the party this week!
