Valentines & Hearts...

It's Almost February!!!

Time to Bring-Out-The

~ R*E*D ~

Here in the Midwest, come October, I ALWAYS look for these *Seasonal RoseHip Berries* at the Flea Market... I have come to find that Dealer-Friends -  Sue & JoAnn, have THE BEST!!!  Their color stays "nice n' red"...   They look FaBuLous in my Thanksgiving Vignette, then Christmas, and NOW ~ Freshening February's Valentine Display!*!*!  Sometimes they are hard to recognize in the Fall ~ surrounded by many  green leaves waiting to dry, and then be removed...
