end of summer x

lovely soft images from franciose rachez....they remind me of the colours of the end of summer, the promise of still warm days, soft colours blurring into autumn days....and jam making with summer fruit......

*j'adore les samedis*

*romantique lumiere*

*vintage confiture*

back home tomorrow

&

get to see my {nearly} finished bathroom

autumn roses x

autumn loveliness from cabbages&roses

i love the way their look books conjure up an image of living in a country house {bigger than a cottage, not quite a country manor} reading jane austen & the bronte sisters by open fires, & taking long walks through country lanes......

.....i guess summer is nearly over

a new addiction x

hello again, after what seems like a long time away from the blogging community....

....i have a small confession to a new addiction, a new site full of wonderful inspiration & gorgeously pretty pictures, all collected & collated onto virtual pin boards - it's heaven on a plate, well actually on the web, so a big *thank you* to emma for introducing it to me....

....seriously, i can't seem to go a day without popping on to see what's been pinned that day....take a gander over here at pinterest....

a board of inspiration from *gorgeousness x* *just because x* & *paper things x*

have a truly wonderful weekend

back tomorrow with lots of loveliness found over the past weeks
