 I'll have my own shop with just the things I love and I want to share with you.

One day elegance and light ill reign supreme.

One day we shall spend time having fun.

Doing some seriously fun shopping perhaps...

And we shall create a place that we shall enjoy with our loved ones,

'cause that's what love is all about.

A new week of Autumn

Hello Friends,

We've had the warmest Autumn I can recall.
A good thing since we don't need to burn our stoves yet...
The weather will be changing next week and I am attracted to images of Autumn and house warmth.

I want to make this for Christmas!

Another way...Thoughts on composure

The Christmas fasting season will begin in two days' time.

I am looking to a time of cleansing and centering and renewing...thoughts, hopes, dreams.

 

Visualising

Puting in perspective

Wanting a Christmas homecoming for my loved ones.

Here is a glimpse at what is inspiring me.

:: Words ::

 

"Let me show you another way"

 

An amazing post of a simple epiphany, where this post started.

 

 

:: Indian Water with cumin seeds ::

:: Words ::

 

"These tragedies, compounded by earlier, unforgettably tragic memories, convinced Lee to make, if not a new life, a different one".

 

I read this article an interview with Lee Radziwill and enjoyed it so much!

 

 

I wander why it needs to take us so long and so much turmoil to get wise(r)

 

"She regulates her life by standards inbuilt by experience, by nurturing her friendships, by staying true, by her irony, by her humor — all qualities that show she is the real deal. That past sorrows and joys have merged into an elegance that permeates her presence, that “something in the air” that indicates class and courage and composure".

This superb little video made me understand Art.

No joking.

And appreciate Life more.

Watch it now.

Thinking of Christmas and family together.

Times of velvet and gold and gazing at the stars shining high.

 

 

 What do you long for today?

 

These days?
