Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

V. I've fallen in love...yes, I'm having a wonderful love affair!
With my house...I want to shower it with little presents here and there...love notes tucked into its flower beds...I can feel it smile when I bring the bunches of tulips through its door...yes it's love affair alright...the kind you know where both of you love each other just the way you are, ones wrinkles and the others sloping floors, a love affair that was meant to be!
It's been a fabulous friday full of sunshine, warmth, gifts and love!


An orchid for my mantle

A coffee table for my living room

A little bench by my kitchen door, with a basket under
for some shoes

A fun wall plaque in my kitchen

and a couple of old silver serving spoons

Some white impatience for the garden

and a pink geranium for the patio

there's lavender there J. for the front path

and a mix of loveliness for my urn
