a hint of green in the sea of white...

You must grow this roadside flower! Or did you get it by the road? I've seen it mixed in bouquets at the grocer and elsewhere, but it doesn't grow here. I love the look of it. I want a bunch like yours! SO pretty with your white tea!
Beautifully serene post,
What a pretty post! Love it all. I had no idea that a lady bug grew from larvae. :-) Amazing photo of the larvae too.
Beautiful! I would gladly join you for a cup of white tea. Love that little bouquet.
Oh my Bella, this is as delicate and lovely as ever...just takes me on a wistful dream....look forward to seeing you for Tea this week :) Off to get my post done - some Peach Hat Pies...FUN!

Hello Bella,
what a sweet post. You have given the Queen Anne lace the right surrounding. It looks so fantastic wrapped in the napkin. Love the little Lady bugs, too.
Best greetings, Johanna

Good morning Bella,
I love your Queen Anne's Lace bouquet! I have been gathering bunches of it myself lately. There is lots of it along the road sides and in the fields here on the Island; love it! Your tea table is so lovely and serene. Thank you for sharing this with Tea Time and for coming coming by for tea. Have a delightful day.
Blessings,
Sandi

Lovely Bella!
Did you know that Queen Anne's lace is wild carrot? My daughter taught me that! :)
A few years ago we put Queen Anne's lace in a glass with lots of blue food coloring. It made the flowers turn a lovely aqua color...I think maybe we should do it again!
Thanks for sharing such beauty on your blog!
