Welcome to Bebop's Place

Old fashioned Roses print

Beauty has been defined as "The quality that gives pleasure to the mind or senses and is associated with such properties as harmony of form or color, excellence of artistry, truthfulness, and originality." Since our responses are totally subjective, I can only speak to what moves me.

I want to share the beauty! I have created a variety of floral products for my Zazzle stores, Bebop's Place and Bebop's Weddings, using my original photographs and designs. I am also constantly amazed at the gorgeous floral products available from the rest of the Zazzle community. I am hoping others will enjoy this blog and even be moved to purchase some of these lovely items for gifts or just for the pleasure of having such beauty around.

This exquisite holiday ornament by Bebops features two delicate white daffodils on a pure black background. Won't this be lovely hanging from your Christmas tree?




I just discovered this lovely binder by Bluewren's Treasures with blue iris, pink roses and pink gerberas over a white background on both the front and back cover with a pale blue spine. Easily change the text on the spine using the customisable template.

I really love this colorful magnet by Artform The Heart which features a painting of a bright blue butterfly visiting a zinnia flower.

This poster available at Bebop's Place will look so striking hanging on the wall. It's sunset at the pond. Cattails in the foreground are silhouetted by lovely shimmering water which is reflecting the pink, yellow, salmon, orange and gold of the evening sky. The incredible reflections almost look like they are painted on glass.



This exquisite note card by hacohen916 features a perfect red rose photographed with a delicate spray of Baby's Breath.

I created this for Bebop's Place yesterday and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Brighten someone's day with this lovely thank you card which features a spectacular cactus flowered dahlia in shades of salmon, orange, gold and pale yellow. Far in the background are more dahlias and an apple tree full of red fruit. The text can be customized to suit your needs.



I think this note card by Bonadrag is just exquisite! A very simple photo of a dewdropped fresh rose.

This lovely poster available at Bebop's Place features a young woman sitting and dreaming on the dock at the edge of a large pond. Autumn is in the air. The water is surrounded with trees in gorgeous fall foliage colors of yellow, green, red, orange and gold. The blue sky has fluffy white clouds and all this is reflected in the water. The trunk of a large pine tree defines the left side. The brilliant sunshine is reflected in her red hair.

I created this calendar for Bebop's Place from photos of the lovely little creatures I see all summer. My garden is a world of light, color and movement. The flowers and vegetables shine with beauty...and the little creatures amaze me in their infinite variations of shape, form and action. I have tried to capture these lovely little beings with my photography and have compiled the best for this 2011 calendar. I hope you will join me in the marvelous land of the giant swallowtail, hoverfly, tiger swallowtail, damselfly, cranefly, least skipper butterfly, grasshopper, Aphrodite fritillary butterfly, polyphemus moth, honeybee, ruby meadowhawk dragonfly and bush katydid nymph.



Here is a lovely poster by sfcount. She says, "Digitally altered from my original painting of a cherry blossom branch, I've converted the image to shades of gray with just a touch of pink on the blooms. To the print, I've added a poem I wrote".




This Apache Blessing poster by The Shy Muse really moved me. Both design and words are lovely. Our interconnectedness with the beauty of Mother Nature is beautifully acknowledged in encouraging and caring words. Appropriate for many occasions--weddings, retirement, graduations, moving, anniversaries...any kind of turning point in life that garners well wishes.

I live at the edge of a small pond and spend lots of time in all seasons seeking its beauty. I compiled this calendar for Bebop's Place with some of my favorite photos of the pond.

Enjoy the many facets and moods of a pond in upstate New York. This 2011 calendar will take you through the seasons of the year with landscapes and details of the pond's flora and fauna. Photographic styles range from realism to abstraction.



I saw this exquisite poster yesterday in Pariseau's Market and just fell in love with it! Frost crystals are growing along the edge of Boston Ivy leaves on a cold November morning.
