 Sometimes when you look at the weeks photos a theme is found...


Start with these delicate maiden hair ferns & the fabulous vintage bottle...


...A birthday cake with a touch of powder blue...yum!


.... wispy Love in the Mist...


Wishes, tiny succulents, and shabby chipped paint...


...Gorgeous large lavender hearts made from Vintage linen...


....simply stunning wedding blooms....


.... miniature toes in soft summer grass...

Hazy muted colours...warm sunny days...thank you summer for turning up!

how much is that doggy???

.....a picture from last weeks foray into flea market land...we had to resist bringing one or all of these home.. although some of us were tempted by the push along elephant.....and it just goes to show how amazing things look at on-mass!



News just in....
we are having a summer sale!!
We have discounted some of our vintage furniture, stoneware and other bits and bobs ...
to make way for a whole lot of lovely new things lining up in the wings....
So do come in and grab yourself a bargain while they last.
We hope that you are now sitting in a sunny spot surrounded by flowers and plants and a cold G&T
and enjoying the summer...at last!!

colour and texture





In the midst of the grayest summer ever!!......we took some pictures of flowers in the shop from last week in an effort to cheer ourselves and you up!
We love the contrasts of some of our painted furniture and the delicious flowers around at the moment.


Also on a bit of a disappointing note we are suspending the Magpie Academy Courses for the moment.....if there were more hours in the day or days in the week we might be-able to fit it all in.


Our diary has filled up with functions and weddings over the last few weeks and we had to take this decision to avoid disappointing people.


Hopefully at some time in the near future we will start them again.
Thank you for your understanding..x


Tomorrow some of the calmer colours in the shop.
