dried flowers from the farmers' market
and a sunny window

The arrangement is reflected in the window.

Japanese lanterns

I think this is a kind of thistle.

Ann Finkelstein said...: Thanks, Buffy. The purple spheres do look like allium in the picture, but I asked a gardening friend who'd seen them in person, and she says they're globe thistles. The stalks are too woody to be a monocot. http://www.bhg.com/gardening/plant-dictionary/perennial/globe-thistle/; October 20, 2013 at 2:10 PM
