Last week I took the children to Southwold in Suffolk for some sea air and to enjoy some late October sunshine. We took a wander along the beach, admired the beautiful beach huts, hunted for sea glass, and had the best fish and chips before having a rummage in the charity shops.
For those of you who read this blog regularly, you will know that I have an ongoing, passionate love affair with pretty faded pastel hues.
I have been so envious of the little white pumpkins that are all over Instagram at the moment! But why be envious when you can buy the sweet mini pumpkins on sale in Aldi, and give them a coat of white chalk paint?
I am not ashamed to say that I have had a bit of a creative block recently. I don't mean taking photographs, or pulling together a vignette - I mean a more of a crafting block.
In a nod to the Autumnal weather which is fast approaching, I had a burning desire to pull together shades of burnt umber and russet. There's nothing more cosy and comforting than opulent shades of burgundy, gold and turmeric, mixed with dusky pinks and olive green.
You may have noticed that I have had a bit of a blog spruce up. I'm sure that the new design will take some getting used to, but I do hope you like it - it was a big decision for me, to move from the blogging platform I have used since the beginning of 2013, and to come to Wordpress.
