all different...all beautiful......

The Lodger......can we go home now or is my dinner in here!!!!

flowers in our hair...

We love our customers...

carte blanche to make head dresses, the brief 

'A Woodland Fantasy'  

As over the top as you like...

OK!!

messing about...

taking a zillion photos...we might have found one out them good enough to use......

its neither of these but we sort of liked the effects....

the recipe
one vintage jelly mould.....over blown roses.....whispy grass......trailing ivy...a few cyclamen blooms.....and lucky heather..add to a chippy chair...or timeworn sleigh....and an adorable pair of child's white boots....

we could play all day!!!......

Saturday morning fever

things calmed down later in the day........

Wands are our new favourite things....littlies can hold them and pretend to be fairy princess's......they look adorable and hopefully are fairly robust...

 ....cast a spell and your dreams may come true...

 ......our second wedding today and the bridesmaids wore pewter.....set in a gorgeous isolated country barn

the journey out there was breathtaking.....blue skies and rolling hills..hidden farms and teeny narrow lanes....

have a wonderful weekend...x

We are back...

(well we have been since last Saturday actually)

.....but this is the shop today.....

 ..once again we have had a change around...redressed the window  and guess what???

while we where gone the seasons changed......the lovely summer flowers have faded away..petals blown to the winds....

 ....and sumptuous autumn in all its boldness is elbowing its way through the door.....the nights are drawing in...the mornings have that chill in the air.......and then we have ranunculus.....hurrah!!!

they have to be one of our favourites.......

gorgeous roses for one of our weddings...

a new range of pretty ribbons......

 and some lovely vintage cards that are just wonderful and designed and made in England and also have tags for that special gift....

tomorrows delivery will have rose hips.....nigella pods.....stripey amaryllis..fabulous four stemmed orchids and lots more.....why not come in a treat yourself this weekend......
