Beaded Baubles winking at the Brim.....


.....and purple stained rim....

In a moment of idleness I composed this mini flower arrangement which made me think of Keats' Ode to a Nightingale

 
with beaded baubles winking at the brim


 The pot is a jade archers' ring filled with purple glass seed beads to hold the 2 handmade beaded daisies.

 
archers' ring


purple glass seed beads


handmade beaded daisies
 
 
....O for a beaker full of the warm South!
  Full of the true, the blushful Hippocrene, 
    With beaded bubbles winking at the brim, 
          And purple-stainèd mouth......
Ode to a Nightingale by John Keats
