This Week......



My views



Discovered a spot for a lamp I found in the depths of my Loft. It is named by my bears as the turquoise onion.

  2. Oh if only I could find 'onions' like that in my loft! I only find bits of what Im looking for {never the whole thing} or spiders with more attitude than Vicky Pollard.

  15. Oh the turquoise onion lamp has just made my stomach sink... it reminded me of last Saturday in tk maxx when I found a turquoise glass owl lamp base and fell madly in love, only to discover minutes later that it had a large hole in it. Loving your new blanket idea...Andrea x

  18. I'm also nursing a sore throat and cold, your photos are so bright, light and inspirational. I adore your cute pastel brooches and as for your 'messy collection' it's rather a collection of pretty messiness which to be fair looks lovingly organised in it's own little way. Everything compliments one another x

  19. Love the colors of the things in your home, everything seems so cheerful, pretty and "together" like it all goes perfectly and compliments. So pretty. That crochet looks far too interesting to keep it secret! oh do tell!

  20. I love that the bears are naming your lamps.
    The potential blanket is really catching my eye. The flower row is nothing short of amazing!

  21. Lovely pictures - is that Winchester Cathedral? I've just arrived home with a bit of a sore throat so will be dosing myself with ginger and all things hot. Time to put feet up and gather wool, I think. Have a super weekend.

  23. How refreshing to see so much lovely colour on such a gloomy, wet, grey day!
    The crochet stripes are gorgeous, and I adore your turquoise onion vase - well named.
    All your gorgeous colourful photos have lifted my spirits, thank you.
