Vintage Frames Part two

Well here are the Gorgeous French Vintage Frames now painted.
I used gorgeous chalky paints in a wonderful "stone" colour and they have all come up beautifully.
These wonderful frames have now been given a new lease of life.
These lovely individual styling idea's are used within my weddings which I create, design & syle at 
Gorgeous vintage pieces of yester-year given that "Janey" touch.
I hope you all love them as much as I do.

Vintage Frames

I have recently bought from France some gorgeous Vintage Frames.
Beautiful detailing, and some wonderful features, although a little worn, all are so very lovely.
However, I personally believe that these gorgeous frames deserve a little TLC and need to be brought to life as all are a little dated.
I adore chalky paints in gorgeous colours such as Swedish Grey, Off White and Stone. 
This week I have enjoyed painting these gorgeous pieces of vintage loveliness.
These are the "Before" images.
I hope you love them as much as I do ... the "After" images are coming soon.

Delicious Macaroons

I just adore Macaroons ... there is something so decadent and gorgeous about them.
Maybe it's their colour, maybe it's their taste, or even their name ... I think I love them for all of these reasons and the fact that they are so very pretty and colourful.
These gorgeous Macaroons were kindly sent to me in the prettiest little box from the lovely English Rose Bakery.
These are perfect for any special occasion or simply as a little treat for yourself and someone you love to share.
If you haven't experienced the French 'Macaron" then take my advice and go and treat yourself ... I can assure you, you wont be disappointed.

Pretty Primroses

I just adore these beautiful little flowers.
This particular colour are my favourite as they are the natural native primroses to the British Isles.
I have been out & purchased  many of them to plant up in and around our lovely home.
We have of late been sorting out our fields and hedges and I am planting these little beauties up in and around the hedge line and wood opposite. 
Last year I split so many snowdrops in and around our home and they are all looking so very lovely at the moment.
These little beauties are about to be planted and I cant wait to see them over time multiply and enhance this wonderful area we live in.
Happy Weekend All.

Pretty Velvet Purse

Sometimes in life you see something and you instinctively know you have to give it a loving home.
This is what happened to me yesterday .... I saw this gorgeous dusky pink velvet purse and thought  
"Hello my little darling, you need to come home with me".
So pretty & soft with the most gorgeous ruffles that resemble Roses .... and a pretty little flower on the side with diamante stamen 
I just love this little purse ... perfect for keeping your precious trinkets in.

Our Beautiful White Deer & Friends

We live in such a beautiful part of the country....we are surrounded by fields and woodland and have fabulous views of the mountains. 
I love our home and love all of the wild animals that share this lovely land with us.
We have Foxes who play with our little cat River, beautiful birds such as Owls & Buzzards.
We also have White Deer ... totally white and very very beautiful. 
I have managed to get a photo of her today, playing in the woods with her friends.
Here are some of the lovely images that I have taken of the gorgeous wildlife that we share our home with.

Little River and the Fox meeting for the first time




This little chap flew into the window.... but after some TLC in our warm kitchen towel he soon felt a little better, and thanked us by leaving a little "poop" behind xxx

Little Miss River's Feathery Friends

I know I have a Cat as a friend and pet .... and I do love her very very much.
I also love feeding the birds as well.... some may say this is wrong but I have ways of keeping these two lovely little animals apart.
River for example has "Big Ben" on her collar ... and the bird feeders are so high up she cant get to them.
Therefore we have harmony at our little cottage.
This lovely little chap was so so hungry today...pecking away at the scrummy  nuts.
I do love birds ..... I wanted to share this little chap with you.... I am sure he is saying 
"Do you mind ... it's rude to stare .... I am having my lunch "

Little Miss River

My darling Little Miss River was hoping it was going to be a lovely, sunny weekend.
She loves to sit and watch the birds and normally is outside all of the time, but at the moment it is very rainy and windy, so she's taken to sitting at the window watching the little birds whizz by.
I love my little River, she is a real character .... and of course so very very beautiful... and doesn't she know it.

Thoughtful Flowers ...

Opposite my pretty stand at The Tatton Park Wedding Show was the very lovely Juliet with her gorgeous company 
"Thoughtful Flowers".
This delightful companies philosophy and ethos is all that I love ... all of their gorgeous flowers are grown on their farm in the beautiful Shropshire countryside ..... in open fields that promote wildlife.
Inspired by natures beauty, choice and scent of English garden flowers their flowers are simply beautiful.
No chemicals are used ... no air miles ... just fresh and naturally gorgeous seasonal flowers.
I was lucky enough to bring some of these beautiful flowers back home with me to my little cottage .... their scent is simply wonderful and they just look so so beautiful .....
Thank you to the lovely Juliet .... from both myself and all the Bee's and Butterflies who I know you make so very, very happy....
