Lilac Love

>

My lilac bushes are abundant in blossoms. I thought I'd bring some of that beauty and aroma indoors.
I found that the blossoms last longer if you hammer the ends
of the branches so that there is more surface to drink up the water.

I pulled out this old thing to help weight the vase down and camouflage the stems.
You just can't beat a homegrown bouquet!
