The holiday

February 26, 2019 Shop

Where we found the middle of nowhere, where we opened and closed all the gates and rattled over all the cattle grids ..

And found this

The most idyllic little house .... to just be.

Surrounded by lots and lots of mistletoe filled trees

How long will I love you ..

Late January ..

January 26, 2019 Shop

It is pouring down with rain. it had been my plan today to be outside digging over our tiny shop garden and finishing off our little chestnut paling fence that surrounds it ... but, being a practical type, I am wearing a tulle dress and have no waterproof coat with me, so I am going to stay inside with the shop fire lit, the little garden will wait until next week.

A very particular gentleman telephoned with a request of two table wreaths to surround candles for a special occasion, I have made those, whilst listening to the rain bat against the windows. Please notice the ruler, for precision, just in case he is reading this.

Tins have been painted, Calamine by Farrow and Ball if you wondered, and planted with spring bulbs, primroses and alpines.

Wedding flower quotes have been sent, birthday flowers collected, customers have been chattered too, friends have visited and After Eights purchased for my dinner date later.

Its been a lovely day, hope yours has too xx
