"The Lavender Bottle"

This is the first of my dried flower series.  Many times people used wild grasses instead of flowers for their table because it was too expensive to buy real flowers.  If you couldn't afford a fancy vase, you used an empty bottle or cup.  Personally, I love these impromptu arrangements.  

"Red and Blue"

This is another of my series of photographs of dried flowers.  This old blue bottle was found in a junk store in Butte, Montana.  I love to collect colored bottles.  I have over 40 of them and they sit in the windows around my house.  

"Farmhouse Bouquet"

one more in my series of photography featuring dried flowers.
