flowers and rain

This morning I got up at the crack of dawn to make a trip to the Sydney Flower Markets. It really was not a getting-up-early sort of morning, what with it pouring with rain and being generally cold and dreary, but get up I did. And boy am I glad I did! The markets were amazing and full of the most beautiful fresh flowers in quantities that I have never see before. Ahh... it was enough to make a girl swoon. The colours, textures and scents were spectacular. I came home with an armful of flowers and now my house is delightfully fragrant and blooming.

Here is a small selection of what I found...



Paper daisies. I love their crunchy texture.


Many, many tulips!


I could not resist. This is a small selection of what I bought.


The colours are beautiful. Ahh... sweet peas.
