I know this isn’t furniture related, but I must have a few fellow lilac lovers here. 💜
We had some pretty strong wind and storms come through this week, and unfortunately, the largest blooming branch on my Miss Kim lilac bush snapped right off.
Rather than letting those beautiful blooms go to waste, I brought them inside, trimmed the stems, and tucked them into a simple glass jar.
Now my whole house smells absolutely amazing.
One of the things I love most about this old cottage is bringing little bits of the outdoors inside. Fresh lilacs on the table, birds at the feeders, sunshine through the windows… it’s the simple things that make a house feel like home.
Tell me I’m not the only one who stops to smell the lilacs every time I walk by! 💜🌿
Do you have lilacs blooming where you live?
