I am now toiling at work and barely awake after a week o' fun with the absolute BEST hosts this side o' the Mississip! <br />Now having stayed at Chez Haynes I can personally attest that the blooming sticks, or branches, look amazing. You have found a worthy alternative to dusty sticks, I bow down.<br /><br />Also, we took the patio set and new Ikea cushions for a road test on multiple nights of shootin' the breeze with brewskies/riesling/sauvignon blanc, and it was a winner! <br /><br />In fact, JG and I were so grateful to our generous hosts that we redecorated the guest room to show our appreciation, free of charge. We decided on a whimsical homage to a Led Zeppelin Sunset Hyatt room, circa 1977, which consisted of drunkenly tearing down the drapes and knocking over the bedside table contents, including a glass of water. Unfortunately we did not take photos, but it was truly an inspired bout of decorating!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12789682909378764705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7501140616891435984.post-2193230118924839432010-04-23T10:26:10.612-05:002010-04-23T10:26:10.612-05:00Like to see a variation on a stick chez you!! Also...Like to see a variation on a stick chez you!! Also think that cherry blossoms are a lovely option this time of year (though their availability seems to be regional). I am inspired to group some of my own blooming sticks (or branches if that is a more acceptable term) in a grouping of vases. Happy Jazz Fest!!Courtneynoreply@blogger.com
