Roses for you




Rain was forecast so I couldn't leave these beauties 
to get battered.





These have now dried nicely. 






Enjoy your weekend.

I'll be back soon to show you how autumn 
is progressing here in rural France.

à bientôt

  5. Barbara Lilian, these roses (and photos) are so pretty and a delicate colour after they are dried. It's nice that you rescued them from the rain and preserved them. Have a wonderful weekend.

  6. Good Afternoon Barbara, Oh I do love roses, especially pink ones and yours are so beautiful. They take on a totally different tone when they are dried. I have never dried roses as you have done, but I have dried the petals before. Do you remember years ago when it was all the rage to make pressed flower pictures. I remember I used to press the petals between two pieces of blotting paper, then place the blotting paper between two pieces of card board and then I placed the cardboard under the carpet.... yes it was the days before fitted carpet.... and it worked a treat.
    I just wanted to say, that you have left me a couple of comments on my blog just lately, but for some reason or another I have not been able to reply.... I'm not sure what's going on... as I'm not techy... any thoughts at your end.
    I will email you over the weekend about my 'around the corner' moment.
    I hope you have a lovely sunny weekend in France.... here it's getting really cold.
    Best Wishes as always.

  8. I swear I posted a comment yesterday....but oh well, probably forgot to hit "post"...
    Anyway, your roses are lovely....so pretty. My roses are beginning to show again after hiding from all the heat...I even have a few Eden roses starting to show...which is odd for this time of year....but then again, our weather hasn't been "normal" for a couple of years.
    Have a great weekend....

  9. Dear Barbara - how lovely my friend. They dried to such a soft dusty pink. Hope you are having a splendid fall. Frost has pretty much taken away all my blooms. Do have a some mums and an aster and snapdragons still blooming. Planted tulips yesterday - have a few more to put in the ground before the snow flies. Well have a blessed week friend. Hugs
