Misty Mornings And Mr and Mrs

Mornings have been misty, days quiet.
Things are winding down in preparation for colder days.


There has been fruit collecting and conker stringing. The cupboard is now home to sloe gin. There are blackberries in the freezer, plum wine fermenting in the kitchen, apples, still to be dealt with. :)

The ladybirds are back again. Even if we don't think its cold yet. Nature knows when its time to come in and hibernate.

Hmmmm....I'm sure others would hibernate if they could!....


I've been busy cutting wood and creating creatures. More bears, toadstools,magpie,whale and hearts you might have seen, have all been recently added to my Etsy shop. And there are more to come!

But for now... I would like to introduce you to Mr and Mrs.....

I don't know what there surname is, so I just thought I'd stick with Mr & Mrs?


They will be sold together. I mean, how could I tear them apart!? She is offering her heart....
Or has she stolen his?....

See you soon! x

    Absolutely lovely post! Sounds as if Fall is tiptoeing toward us all. The bunnies are adorable... and such sweet sentiments with them.

    Lovely post. I favor the change of seasons from summer to my fav, Autumn.
    Your wooden cut creatures are fantastic and delightfully charming, as is the cat sleeping in the pile of leaves.

    What a gorgeous cat, cunningly disguised as autumn leaves! I'd quite like to hibernate myself!

    Mr and Mrs? Surely Belinda Burrows and Mr Hearkenwell?

    Yes, I'm with Jessie on 'Mrs': she's definitely the one in charge of the heart! Lovely pair, Karen - just beautiful. Wish you much success with them.
    Adore that pic of the cat amongst the leaves, am another fan of all shades of brown and burnt umber, ochre ... Autumn colours: lovely!
    Here, it doesn't really happen; but I'm not complaining, as I appreciate being warm!
    That print is heavenly (last post but one), and you deserved the prize. Good idea to resurrect the picture, as am sure it will prove popular.
