As I was deadheading my roses yesterday I looked down into the pail on my way to the compost bin and thought how pretty they still looked. I could hardly bear to part with them.

Beuatiful flowers and page that you've made with them! You must have a lot of rose bushes to have so many while pruning them! Wonderful page!

Gorgeous Helen. Very pretty colors. Due to our water restrictions, my roses didn't do as well this year. Hopefully with lots of tlc throughout winter/spring maybe they will be better next flowering season. Great page. Love this kit La Vie En Rose Helen. TFS

Heavens, I thought it was a bowl with water on the table...not your bucket for the compost pile! They are too beautiful to just dump yet...the petals would be lovely separated and dried for a bowl...with a bit of added scent...
