{green tablecloth from the thrift store, blue ceramic vase by d}
For some reason hydrangeas used to make me think of little old ladies and cottages and I didn't like them (the flowers, not little old ladies or cottages). And then I gradually started to appreciate them. Isn't it weird how that happens? Or maybe it's just a sign that I'm getting old.
I love how the petals look like ruffles from the top.
{ignore my sadly misshapen egg - it was delicious but not beautiful}
I love hydrangeas. They are such a sweet flower and your tablecloth sets them off beautifully.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE hydrangeas, even if they do bring to mind old ladies!
ReplyDeleteI love white hydrangeas. Blue ones still make me think of little old ladies, cottages, and Martha Stewart circa 1982. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've become smitten by hydrangeas lately too...maybe it is due to age! Your breakfast looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteI think I started loving hydrangeas when studying abroad in England. The acidity of the soil changed the colors from pink to indigo to bright white, it was really incredible!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, dearest!
I love hydrangeas - they make me think of my grandmother's garden in Belgium. It is a bit cottage-y though :)
ReplyDeletehave a great day!
What a gorgeous photo! I love the contrast of the creamy petals against the tablecloth -- it's very Tiffany & Co.
ReplyDeletei think the little plated egg is my favorite part, actually - you really have a way with food styling, rachel!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I'm curious. Is that coffee you're drinking with cream(er) or is it tea? Either way it looks delicious and would love to know what it is exactly.
ReplyDeleteOh so pretty! Just found your great blog... will visit often
ReplyDeleteLiving in the hot, humid south, I adore hydrangeas. There's a bush on the side of my house that blooms for months. Clippings sit in Mason jars all over my apartment all summer long.
ReplyDeletelovely, egg and all!
ReplyDeleteStunning! I'm waiting for the week when we pick the same flower and shoot a nearly identical photo!
ReplyDeletelove hydrangeas! and such pretty, peaceful photos. have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYour egg is beautiful in its misshapen-ness. Just like the loveliness of the folds in the tablecloth...
ReplyDeleteLoverly! I love hydrangeas.
ReplyDeleteThe colours, the textures, the egg - just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love Hydrangeas. And the color contrasts of the flowers and the tablecloth are great!
ReplyDeleteso pretty, especially with your lovely green table cloth. I love the really pale green hydrangeas too, but white is so fresh.
ReplyDeletehaha, same with me. I just planted 3 new ones to add to my other 3 over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love Hydrangeas, especially the white ones, there's just something about the petals that are so lovely and frothy! They look beautiful against that green table cloth, so spring like!
ReplyDeletethat's so funny! my granny had hydrangeas outside her house, so they always made me think of old ladies too. but now i kinda like 'em...
ReplyDeleteI think the hydrangeas are beautiful... especially the white ones and the table cloth is wonderful too!
ReplyDeletethe colors blow me away...wow...beautiful! xo t
