Just lovely Terri the colors are just superb! What is the container? So type of gourd? The yellows almost look like wax they are so sharp.

I so want to do this one, but alas no tulips here as yet and I stopped at the grocery yesterday and they want $5 for just a measly 4 of them so still have my thinking cap on for this one.

Some"thymes" you just have to be innovative LOL! Like I said no tulips in the garden but I always have "thyme" for a joke in April!
I have a great idea for this theme, but must wait to get the tulips so in the mean"time" here are my interpretations.
First my tulip bowl and time! LOL

Hahaha! Love the tulip bowl and time/thyme clever!

My container was a honeydew melon hollowed out, it was an arrangement for another theme chosen by Adele using fruit and flowers. Just thought I would use it for this tulip thread to start us off.
Maybe we should have another theme going until we are ready for tulip time?!!

Of course the boot would match!! If I could have but one flower around, it would be a tulip. Terri, those are beautiful!!

Candee, I love how your mind works. You have a wicked sense of humor, which is fantastic!!

Well, you have a lovely stash of tulips there Terri, that is great "eye candy"! I found some tulips at our supermarket the other day, they wanted $12 for 6 of them and I just could not bring myself to take them. I'll find some somewhere.
Wicked sense of humor probably doesn't even touch the surface Traci LOl! I do have a good time! Can't wait to see your creation.

Just admiring your tulips again Candee! Love the bluebells with the red tulip, what is the white flower without any leaves?
The yellow and purple ones are so pretty together with the broom. They are all so huge and healthy!
Thanks again for your arrangements.

LOL, you always ask the ones I don't know, that was left over from an earlier arrangement, you recall the stuff I got from the grocery store for the urn arrangements. If we find out what it is, we need to get some cause it lasts forever :-)
Thanks again for your compliments, coming from a pro that is really flattering.
