Welcome to Bebop's Place

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.

Sunday - August 15, 2010

It's a rainy Sunday in the middle of the month. Is housework on the horizon for me? Sigh.

The rugosa roses are just about the perfect rose to grow. They are tough, hardy, fragrant and repeat their blooms. Right now I have five rugosas blooming: F.J.Grootendorst, Pink Grootendorst, Sir Thomas Lipton, the standard old rugosa you see at the beach, and this beauty, Conrad Meyer, which I made into a pin for Bebop's Place.



What a great design this is! This vintage image is a wreath made in the shape of a heart. It is composed of beautiful red roses and green leaves. See the Art by Mar store for matching products with this design.



I love this stunning cluster of roses in mauve and purple shades. An elegant floral thank you card by Seashell2 perfect for wedding thanks, showers, etc.
