How to decorate a beehive!

It's arts festival time in this part of the world, and our local extravaganza has been going on for a few days now.  
Yesterday I went along to help with this workshop.  Bedlam, but great fun!
A local beekeeper was on hand to tell the children about bees, beekeeping and how to make a little beeswax candle.  All good stuff!

    What an excellent fair for all to participate. Love the painted beehives...it's a shame E isn't over there to join in. She would love to do that. The candles are especially lovely, I have some that look very similar. I bet it was chaotic but so much fun. Great thing to get involved in. Happy days. Love S xx

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
