Five Star Frou-Frou #48...

http://megsmyth1.blogspot.com.au/2016/04/decorating-with-roses.html 
 Hi everyone and Happy Mothers Day to those honouring the celebration of Mothers tomorrow!
 
This weeks features include Megs sublime tribute to the rose and how to decorate with this Queen of Flowers, pictured above, which had the most clicks of any link last week.
 
 These divine decoupaged paper lanterns from The Lady in the Woods at Fairy Cottage and Garden...Enchanted Life of a Domestic Mystic, were my personal favourite and I am wracking my brain trying to imagine where I can have these in my own outdoor space...

And I couldn't pass up Sandras sublime painted cake over at Sweet Sensations...how dreamy and whimsical is this?

Thankyou to everyone for a truly beautiful linkup last week. It did my head in trying to choose a favourite!

Frou-Frou

Meaning: Frills or other ornamentation

Origin: French, late 19th century

Imitative of the sound of a woman walking in a dress

In my imagination, this linkup is like a weekly gathering of friends, swishing around in stylish dresses and frou-frou. We all love to entertain graciously, live elegantly, dress beautifully, and gift generously, no matter our budget.

Like any regular gathering, we like to make sure we acknowledge newcomers, say hi to old friends, and share our most engaging news. Please do this...it's lovely for us all to have a new friend stop by.
 
Some gentle rules...

1. Please follow A Tray of Bliss. I am on Facebook and Pinterest (as Mimi's Tray of Bliss). I now have a closed group on Facebook with the same name, and we'd love you to join us.

2. Please visit new friends, revisit old ones, and leave comments to show your appreciation. We all love that. Everyone works hard on their projects and writing, and if this is a party, then you need to mingle!

3. I'd love it if you'd link back to A Tray of Bliss somewhere on your page. That helps the linkup to grow. The more bloggers we have linking, the more comments and visits for all of us. Thankyou!

The collection has closed. Let other people know about it through twitter.

  1. Thank you Mimi for the feature and I wanted to say as I continue to peruse your blog I am falling in love...but it began with this quote of yours: "In my imagination, this linkup is like a weekly gathering of friends, swishing around in stylish dresses and frou-frou. We all love to entertain graciously, live elegantly, dress beautifully, and gift generously, no matter our budget."
    I could not have said it any better, what I too wish for in my imagination. I have all the dresses and fun bits, hats, feathers, Silver Cinderella Mules (I made a post about that) I decorated myself with Swarovski crystals, and one day I'll have a gather of friends, all swishing around in silky dresses and frou-frou! How FUN!
