Palo Verde Tree Home Decor

Today, I decided to take a little break away from getting ready for an event this weekend to enjoy the wonderful overcast morning with my kids. Overcast turned to very windy, which turned our yard into a yellow mess thanks to our blooming palo verde trees (already there when we bought our house). As the yellow blooms went flying with the wind, I thought to myself, our neighbors have got to hate us right now and that my husband is going to be in for a task cleaning this up. But then I thought to myself, why worry about that now? Why not try to enjoy this tree (minus the wind). I cut off some of the floral branches (careful, those things have thorns) and placed them in an amber class bottle.

Tomorrow, a yellow mess!

But today, beautiful!
