Off-season gifts...

No pumpkins for this Halloween post...

















...these are the gifts I received from my garden in this sunny day...

















...some new branches of lavender...

















...a white rose blossom...

















...the illusion of being in Summer!

Have a wonderful week end!

Autumn arrangements...

Difficul to be accepted in such a sunny day, but...Autumn is here! As you probably know, this is not properly my favourite season...

















..I made some arrangements to lift my mood up...
















...heather and moss...

















..white pansies and olive branches...

















...I'm buying new plants for my winter garden, but before planting I enjoy them indoor!

Saint Therese of Lisieux

I'm posting from my office...still internet problems at home...I show you the last find at the flea market...

















...I was already disappointed I didn't find anything to buy....

















...when I found a little statue of St. Therese...

















...she's a bit chipped but Therese was the name of my beloved grandmother and I simply adored her...now the little statue is in my bedroom!

LC received a nice giveaway last week...













...from my dear friend Marge...
Thank you Marge! I truly don't deserve it...I've been so absent during these weeks...I'm sorry but the good season and now the internet problems...it's so difficult for me finding the way of blogging!
Anyway I'd like to give it to you all...thanks for your friendship!
Have a nice new week!

Garden's finds!

It's still the right weather to stay outdoor...

















...last finds for the garden...

















...a strange colander...I don't know what it was for...

















...and 2 old wooden crates...I like the font of the name...just decorative as a cache-pot for my little apple tree!

I'm having problems with my internet connection at home...that's the reason why I couldn't visit you as often as I'd like! Hope you can forgive me...but I cannot blog from my work place...well just a little bit!
Have a nice new week!

For new projects...2...

My hydrangeas are now dried...

















...they are almost ready for new arrangements...wreaths for instance...

















...I like their green and red shades...

















...a friend gave me a lot of wooden spoils...

















...they are so decorative...

















...I'm still speaking about new projects...I'm still planning new creations...the operational phase will come during the grey days of Autumn!
Have a nice week end!
