A Lazy Sunday at Home

I have had a lazy Sunday at home....gathering flowers from the garden,

   

relaxing by the fire with my little Poppy,

and mucking around with photos...something that I spend way too much time doing these days....but it is, after all....my day off : )

Have a good week,

Angela.

Altering vintage things...

Another busy day but I have motivated myself at last to play with a few vintage items. I love to alter old things. To make them useful again.

I think however, I will leave the wooden shoe lasts as is because once they are surrounded by white they look so wonderful. These just arrived today. One of my many eBay purchases and I am so happy with them. They have just the right coloured wood and a few numbers and letters here and there....perfect :)

Vintage Violets

Although winter can be cold and a little demotivating, when I step into the garden and find my violets I am reminded that winter isn't that bad . 

 They are certainly a good aspect of winter and they look so beautiful in vintage bottles of the palest blue.

 So vintage, so feminine, so beautifully scented.

But now, I think I will go and sit outside in the sun while it is still about.

Stay warm,

Angela.
