forcing

I decided to try forcing some blooms for the first time.  I had zero faith this would work but I cut some forsythia branches from one of our bushes in the yard and brought them in and put them in warm water which I changed often, if not every day at least every few days.

It took about a week but look what happened.


Get outta town it worked! 

In my slow going effort to get more yellow in the master bedroom I think I'm going to paint this chair yellow!


Happy Friday to you!

  2. I didn't know that was possible! Just warm water? I'm gonna try it! The chair would look way better with a pop of color!
