31 Oct Friday…
Being Half Term, I was away for a few days earlier this week. I was in Cornwall initially and then on Tuesday morning I drove 6 hours to Warwickshire to see my Mum, and then a further 3 hours back to Brighton that evening…with a teenager and a cat!
I collected loads of foliage for my workshop next weekend, but I was so impressed by the colour in her garden when I looked through the downstairs window…
Sumac was one of my Granny’s favourites and these come from her garden originally…
Cheeks is very used to travelling and knows my Mum’s place well, but since the arrival of her own siamese a few years ago, Cheeks has always been more on edge there, although he loves to have a wonder round the garden as long as we’re with him…and someone has their eye on his arch enemy!
( Cheeks pretending to be relaxed here, whilst eyeballing the other cat! )
It was obviously irresistible not to have a quick arrange of colour on my mum’s table…the original table love of my life!

Posted at 01:29h, 02 NovemberThats the true beauty of Autumn all those rich colours!… i love the indian style cushions and the comfy Siamese cat!… When I visit my mother in her Cornish cottage the first place i head to is her garden~ because of the more humid temps in the west country everything always seems so much more lush and green…though we get a lot of rain too!…The red and golden tones light up the lanes down here at the moment… cheers the rainy, blustery days 😉 xx
