Single Stems

A fresh approach.

I love the stylish simplicity of a single stem in a vase, bottle or kitchen glass jar

it looks so quaint and charming.

Make a lovely statement by grouping a few together!

White on White

 

 

 

White ...the purest and simplest of colours.
It conjures up so many positive thoughts ~
crisp, clean, pure, fresh, light and spiritual.
Which may be a few of the reasons why
it is a favourite colour with designers.

Beetle Juice

I love cars with character.

My first car was a 1966 red MG sportscar.

After breaking down and leaving me stranded on the side of the road 

.... countless times,

 it was traded in for a more sensible, reliable car.

But I have never lost my passion for vintage cars.

Amongst my favourites are VW beetles, old Jags and Kombi vans

Bright Summer Garden Party

One of the things I love most about summer is entertaining in the garden.
We have a beautiful garden and gorgeous green lawn
that is perfect for parties and drinks.

Red Summer Delight

I love all the healthy, fresh treats that summer provides ~

sweet juicy fruit picked straight from the tree,

vegie patches bursting with strawberries, rhubarb and crisp vegies ~

packed full of goodness and bursting with flavour!

Romantic Pastels

Yesterday I bought a beautiful bouquet of pretty flowers from my local florist.
They were mixed flowers in the most delicate pastel hues.
It reminded me just how much I have love soft sorbet shades.
Fashion, flowers, decor and ice-cream always look prettier in gelati colours.

Afternoon Blues

 

 

After seeing all of this gorgeous inspiration ~

I  feel like baking a batch of vanilla cupcakes

and decorating them with violets

picked straight from the garden!
