So, long time no read.I haven't been blogging for a while. Autumn is a busy time.
It is time to harvest what the garden and the forest has given us,
time to turn that harvest into jam, marmalades, bread, muffins, pies,
marmalades from left: peach with menthe, plum with cinnamon and black currant
time to pick also the non-edibles from the woods and make decorations,
time to sew curtains for the kitchen from grandmother's old hand-embroidered sheets that I coloured grey,
time to pick up some "new" reads from the thrift store for those long autumn eves,
time to raid the after-summer-sales and thrift store for some new loves
like this thrifted dress and tights bought at sale that goes perfectly with some of my old loves
my grandmother's brooch
and these gorgeous vintage leather shoes
and then, the love you thought lost because of a price too high suddenly appears on the sale rack for a fifth of the price! Thank heaven and all the angels! The dream dress now resides in my closet. Til it falls apart. ♥
Autumn is also the time for a new season and I will soon be back with some of my favorites from the runway!
