{ The Colour of Water}






Just some random lovelies in pale water colours, so dreamy and soothing.

{Farm Fresh}






A cottage, touched with the first light of morning, mist still lingering in the nearby fields. Birds singing, the branches bobbing as they perch in blooming shrubs. Dew still lingering on the flowers in the garden, on the strawberries and vegetables planted in their neat rows. Inside, the tea kettle whistles, tea cups, honey and cream are set on the old wood table. The smell of hot toast and fresh jam lingers in the air, the floorboards warmed by the sunlight pouring through the kitchen windows. I want to wake up to this dream.

{A Warm Welcome}





  Rather than thinking of your entry as the way of making a good first impression on your guests, remember that it is the first welcome you get when you come home. Home envelopes us at the end of the day, it wraps us in familiar comfort. Whatever you want your home to say to you, remember to treat your entry as it's own special room, because it really is special.

{Take Me Away}



Is there anything quite so delightful, so comforting, as a hot cup of tea? Sipped from lovely old china in a delicious colour, just seems the peak of luxury. There are so many layers to the ritual of making tea, which for me, makes the whole experience the richer. The steamy fragrance fills your senses, transporting you to a beautiful place, calm and peaceful.
