~ @ ~ April Showers ~ @ ~


My Version 
 of
The April Showers Bouquet


I have wanted to get this done for a couple years now.
 I saw this at a Shop in Ozark,Mo. a couple years prior.
Sad that I am just now getting to it!!!


The Umbrella is Vintage
in
 Shades of  Lavender


I love all the mix of the spring flower colors. 
Sooo ... I decided to do mine in just That!


I also Love Vintage Umbrellas
... which I have a collection of ...
but that's another Blog in the making!


I have saved several pictures of different colors & styles done by others ! 


This was done by my Friends
@
 The Magpie
Antiques & Flea Market 
located in Clarksville, Arkansas 


I found this one from one of my favorite blogs.


I LOVE the Bright RED Umbrella!  


This is the first one for me to lay my eyes on & had to take a picture.

  I found it in Ozark, Missouri


Loads of Color


Oh ~ YES ~ you gotta have a Bird-nest with Egg or it just wouldn't be right
 &
 a touch of  ivy. 

? RIGHT ?


I then added this Ribbon & a Little Garden Tool.



Looks GREAT on My Front Door!
Don't you think?
