One of my all-time favorite September birthday gifts was a painting of an apple tree in full blossom.
A very dear artist friend, Christina, gave it to me.
Isn't it absolutely charming?
I'd like to get some kind of frame for it but have no idea what kind. Any suggestions?
Apple blossoms remind me soooo much of my childhood.
There was a big apple tree in the back yard of the house in which I grew up.
The scent of apple blossoms was utterly intoxicating but the blossoms were short-lived.
It was like having a little touch of heaven right in our back yard.
WHAT WAS THE LAST GIFT YOU RECEIVED THAT YOU ABSOLUTELY LOVED?

A very dear friend of mine gave me a plate with the city of Budapest on it with the gorgeous bridge in lights. We traveled there together and so this plate was extra special to me. I have it displayed in my dining room. I love the apple blossom picture. I have one with orange blossoms that my daughter in law painted in my dining room which I love.
Oh that is stunning Susan. I don't know for sure what frame would suit it,I think I would take it along shopping to try out some first.
I just received a beautiful lazy susan with glass condiment dishes.I so love it. I can't wait to use it. I'v put it into this weeks post on my blog. Happy week x jeanette
What a lovely gift. Handmade is always the best sort of gift. I'd just go with a nice, simple oak frame. It doesn't need anything too decorative. Let the painting itself be the spotlight. Hugs and blessings, Tammy
I would have to say that you have a lot of wonderful and talented friends. That was just beautiful -I thought it was real at first. I Love that time of year!
Good morning dear friend....cool cloudy day here in Oregon. I have been having some problems with my computer, but finally it let me leave a comment for you. Love your apple gift!! I also went back to look at your recent posts and just love your photos from the Sunny Spot~ WOW.

Hello from Spain: I really like your apple gift. very lovely. I really like trees because they express life.The last gifts I received and was loved clothes sent a companion blog from America. Keep in touch

Gorgeous painting. Love the colors and the whimsical style! Can wait to see how you frame and display it.
This picture is as beautifull as I would't give any frame to it. I think glass cover will be much suitable instead of the frame.
What a beautiful painting from your dear friend, Susan. Handmade gifts are so special, and often times they're the ones we keep forever. To answer your question, what was the last gift that I got that I loved?.....MY HOUSE! I'm settling in now and feeling very grateful.
Have a good week.
love,
