The roses have stopped blooming, but I have a shot of the Mother of Pearl rose I took in August. . . .
It was down in the 30s yesterday morning, so the roses are wise to hibernate for a while. They’ll have to be cut back in January, then will start blooming again.
On another note, society6 is doing pillows now. I was surprised to see them on my site, as no announcement was made, but I’m liking the way this one turned out:
Hope your week’s going well so far.

Pearls & Prose 
What a lovely rose. I wish you a happy week as well.
Thanks. 🙂
It’s a beautiful rose.
I really like the pillow, this photo was perfect for it but there are some other very nice ones.
Thanks, Caroline. I wasn’t thrilled that they turned my cupcake shot into a pillow, but I had no control over it.
Funny you should say that because that was one that puzzled me a bit. 🙂
I think it should have been centered better vertically. So strange to see a pillow with just frosting!
the snow falling on your blog added such beauty when viewing the rose photograph, gorgeous
Oh, thank you. I liked the effect too. 🙂
Are those your photos on the pillows? That’s fantastic! Do you decide which images are selected?
Thanks, Jackie. Yes, those are my photos. I control the prints, cell phone cases and laptop skins, but society6 did the pillows. I’m just glad they centered the images! Now that I know about the pillows, I’ll be doing them from now on.
The pillows from your photos on Society6 are ALL stunning … couldn’t choose just one favourite.
Thank you so much, Cheryl.
Am I supposed to cut my tea roses too? I only cut my climbing rose bush.
Yes, you definitely want to cut back tea roses to get rid of dead or weak branches.
