I have a favorite new color combination. Crabapple blossom pink and chalkboard green.
The background is a vintage chalkboard I had as a child, that I keep in my son's room. Sounds strange to call it vintage, since I used to own it.
Maybe I should say it is classic instead.
I decided to grab it at the last second when I was setting up this vignette, just because the flowers against the white wall were sort of plain.
It wasn't until I saw the photos on my computer, that I noticed the nice color combination.
I just love when thrown together things end up working out.

A beautiful combination! My crabapple has bloomed already and is already dropping the petals- they were so early this year!

I am quite jealous of your crabapple blooms. Mine just are blooming very nicely this year. Love the pink and green combination!

Great colors. So pretty. Enjoy your mulching. I'm working on that. I need lots more flowers. I agree with you "classic" is a much better term. Have a great day!

Your blossoms are so pretty, especially against the classic chalkboard. I'll have to remember that. Classic. It does have a nice ring to it. :@

I love that color combination. WOuldn't have guessed it was a chalkboard.
When you get done mulching I have more for you to do, I'll pay for your gas and even buy you lunch.

Gorgeous color. That pink against the green chalkboard is splendid. I might just start calling my former toys and books "classics" too. Best wishes with the mulch.
