Inspiring colors in glass and petals 2022-05-22 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. The only way to make the brilliant cut glass lamp more inspiring is to place a bouquet of yellow Peonies in front of it and let the light shine through. The bouquet is a gift from masterful gardner Ricky Bault to his wife Mitzi. It inspired me to search through the Columbia Magazine photo archives and find more of the beautiful flowers shared by photographers like Inette Goodin, Greg Thomas, Sharon Whitehurst, Billy Joe Fudge, Larry Clark, Mitzi Bault, Mike Watson, Tiffany Kessler, and others over the years. I'm grateful for every picture showcasing the beauty of our home. - LW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
