A Colorful way to greet your guests
Who would have imagined that these…..
could look so beautiful, vibrant and colorful?
My Crepe Mrytle stems (which I never would have thought to cut) in various colors from the front yard
placed in a straw tote with a small chalkboard sign
And perched on a chair near the door to Welcome You!

This looks great! My crepe myrtle bloomed really early this year–I was hoping for a second round, but it didn't happen.
Such a pretty vignette – I used to cut my crepe myrtle blooms too.

Oh, I have some pink ones. But wish I had white and red.

Your basket of blooms is just wonderful, Laura!
Terrific idea! Lucky you, you have all the lovely colors too!

I love crepe myrtles, too. You arrangement is very pretty. They are messy though if you bring them in.
I never thought to cut those Crape Myrtles….great idea and such a beautiful array of colors!…They would make me smile if I came to your door!
This is a FABULOUS idea!!! It looks so inviting and oh so pretty…the chalkboard was the PERFECT touch to bring it all together…you rock once again! (hugs)
Gorgeous! I cut my crepe myrtle, too but I only have white… mind if I sneak a few of your pinks? 😉

Oh my goodness they are gorgeous! Love the beautiful colors!
Laura such a simplistic idea yet so stunning! A Bold statement:)Love it..
Stopping by from Fishtail – love your Crape Myrtles, what beautiful color!
Look at all that color! You are really bringing out the color at the end of summer:)
Beautiful color! It's amazing what propping flowers in a basket can do!

I love crepe myrtles… all week I've been admiring them in bloom and told my husband earlier today that we have got to plant them this fall at our place! Yours are beautiful… I love the variety of colors.
