Living Colour

I love the way the garden is like an ever-changing canvas of colour.

At different times of the year it is awash with different colours.
Each season it has it's own defined colour palette.
At the moment it is a pretty picture of green and purple.

Shades of Purple

Right now my garden is amass of pretty purple flowers.
I have picked handfuls of them and dotted them around the house
Our home now has a beautiful perfume in the air
and every room is alive with colour ~
it really is a picture of prettiness.

Purple Hues

Everytime I see purple in an interior decor scheme
I always think to myself 'I must start using more purple'!
It reminds me of gorgeous days spent in the countryside ~
sunny afternoons, rolling hills and lavender fields.
It is calming, tranquil colour perfectly suited to country living!

Berry Delight

 

 

 

Nothing says summer more than berries on a summer's day!

Fruity macarons, blueberry cheescake slice and berry flavoured ice-cream
make irresistible treats for summer.

From smooth, creamy frozen delights, to colourful popsicles and tempting slices

- these sugar kissed treats are sure to bring a smile to your lips!

A fabulous palette

Purple, lilac, lavender and mauve

A Passion for Purple

Today I am loving the combination of purple and green.

For me, Springtime is all about being outdoors
entertaining in the garden,
picnics in the park,
reading in the afternoon sun
and of course ....
a little pottering in the garden!
