A Rosy Look

Tabletop Trees

So many of my friends today no longer have the desire for large trees, nor do they have the energy it takes to go out and find the tree and bring it home to decorate.  

Here are some beautiful small trees that could be placed on any tabletop without too much ado!

Enjoy!

The Roses

Arrived in New York just in time to see Will Ryman's art installation of sculptured roses!  They ranged in size from 4' tall to 25' tall and were placed in the Park Avenue boulevards between 57th and 67th Streets for all to enjoy........the exhibition lasted from January to May 31.

Take note of the giant lady bugs, beetles, etc.  These pics were taken just as they were beginning to be removed.....until then they were surrounded by grass.  Delightful!
