this time it´s all about rose

there was a lovely package in the mail today

a vintage recipe binder from liberty of london - it´s the best

almost too pretty to actually write in it

i got it from her amazing shop

also showing a Glass Bead Necklace

and Strawberry Leaf Necklace

- almost to late for it now, there´s such a summery feel about it

big SHOP UPDATE today

come on over - have a look!

lots and lots of new necklaces - well, some of them you probably already know

since i posted about a few while i was working on them

like i already told you, i had an amazing time taking pictures of them

so you´re gonna see a lot of this pretty girl from now on

in the first picture she´s wearing a Silhouette Charm of her mother

look at her smile!

then a Silk & Glass Necklace

a Glass Bead Necklace

and a Triangle Pebble Necklace

yesterday i had the most amazing sunny fall afternoon in the garden

a lovely girl was over for taking pictures of some of my necklaces

she was very patient and even brought over a bunch of flowers

have you ever heard of such a model?

i sure haven´t

just a tiny blurry preview for now...can´t wait to show you more soon

and i got myself a book on card waving and a box of vintage saddler twine

now i have to work it out

that´s just a minor post about how much i like the colour purple, lilac, violet...

don´t even know the right word for it

but it makes me buy old-fashioned dried flowers on the farmers market

and cook something using plums almost every day now

this weekend i was invited over to friends for pumpkin tortellini

most delicious by the way

(tried to convince them to start a blog called

"The Fons, a dash of chayenne pepper and me")

and having a lunch made of pumpkin for the first time this year

i noticed it´s autumn now

so i decided to add a few sets of MAPLE CARDS to the shop

they are offset printed in black and gold and each one is watercoloured by hand

to give it the same unique look like the leaves blown of the tree

have a look in THE SHOP!
