This morning I was meant to be doing loads of stuff but when my friend asked if I’d go for an early walk, I just did ( although I’ve been catching up all afternoon as a consequence!! )...

  Sometimes when people visit the  Open House they turn up with a present!! I sort of think it’s amazing that they have shown up at all, and so then to produce a gift completely takes me by surprise...

The flowers have started! The survivors of the winter and every year feel like old friends are coming back to stay...

When I came back from Cornwall yesterday, I knew that virtually all my Christmas flowers would be past it, but I couldn't bring myself to throw them away before I left when they were all still thriving, albeit in the last stages of flowering...

There’s something incredibly calming about arranging flowers, and for me I particularly enjoy using the simplicity of the the natural flow of leaves and branches...

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...

Last week I got a bit caught up with sending out masses of my calendars...

One of the best things about Autumn, apart from the amazing colours, is the change of light...
