So too are the flowers, but even 'faded' are still beautiful. Different, but equally as worthy in their beauty as Autumn will be.
Seeds as light as fairy wing are waiting for September winds to take them high across open fields.
We are enjoying just being at home....
Sometimes cooking our tea outside. Jacket potatoes with butter, baked bananas and toasted marshmallows.
Tommorow we have plans for another fairyhouse. And hopefully I might cut a few hangers out?Oh yes, by the way, I've been meaning to say...
Thankyou so much to everyone that pops into my little world here and reads this blog.
I can't believe I have 132 followers now! I really appreciate it :) x

I just came inside after cutting armloads of late hydrangea blossoms...all lime green now as they prepare to leave us. August is indeed thinking about September.
ReplyDeleteLovely eyes...both daughter and cat!
Oh my goodness, your teas sound lovely, a most perfect way, it seems, to let August slip away....
ReplyDeleteI for one, love to check in with your blog...seeing your creative work always makes me happy. Thank you for all of the posts that tell/show us what you're up to!

Hi Karen, I haven't been blog visiting for such a long time and what a treat I had visiting yours today! I really love the magical music and the wonderful pictures. You make a visit to the sea-side full of enchantment and magic too!xx

ReplyDeleteI love the dried flower heads of hydrangeas. They always remind me of Cornwall :)
Sweetpea path....
We have an old metal cauldron type pot with a crack in the bottom which is stood on stones. Its great for just having a little fire when we are sitting outside.
Ruthie..
I also feel a little sad when the children are going back to school and the nights are drawing in. But like you, look forward to all the delicious things Autumn and winter have to offer.
Born in December I think I'm a winter persn at heart ;)
Magic Cochin..
They are so alike aren't they! Jasper is the biggest softie. I'm sure if we dressed him up and pushed him around in a pram he wouldn't mind!
Jopan..
And yes he is HUGE!
Very long and lean although in the photo he looks chubby.
Kathleen...
The last photo is my son. He thinks it looks as though 'dementors ' are after his soul here! ( the mist) :)
Jessie...

Sweltering on the Cote d'Azur, so your beautiful photos are making me a bit nostalgic for the marked seasons back in Britain ... almost!
