Good morning! I love a good coffee mid morning and am very fortunate to be able to make one at home as we have a small coffee machine. I made myself a latte a couple of days ago and without realising, this is what happened.
My froth made a heart. I didn't even notice until Charlotte pointed it out to me. That's the beauty of having a daughter who is highly visual, she has a good eye for detail and noticing things others don't. Thank you darling for pointing out my accidental latte art, something I would have missed entirely.
I know you have seen quite a few images of our cat Stripey, but he really is so cute I had to post a few more.
Here he is balancing on the back gate post. In the background you will see hubby's domain. A mysterious world of cars, timber offcuts, tools, containers of nails, screws, bolts, paint and other bits and pieces that shall remain in the garage/ workshop. And here is Stripey again doing what he does best, relaxing.
I've covered coffee and cats, now comes the bit about colour. Friday of last week saw me up to my ears in party preparations which was briefly interrupted to take Charlotte to the bus. While down in our local shopping precinct, I decided on a whim to visit the op. shop and found this tray. I was drawn to the colours and pattern.
My camera hasn't shown the colours very well as there is a lovely green in there amongst the blues. My idea was not to use this as a tray but as an addition to a little display area I have in the family room.
The ceramic pot plant was made by my mother-in-law when she was alive. She was a very creative person and hubby and I have a number of her pieces of work that we love seeing everyday as a reminder of her.
There is something about colour that draws me in. I'm increasingly finding myself wanting more and more colour in my surroundings and am quite taken with the whole bohemian style of decorating. I've found some amazing images that I've added to my Pinterest board to inspire me daily. Here are a couple of them.
Is anyone else discovering that their approach to decorating and clothing is changing with the passage of time? Perhaps it's just me and the artistic creative side wanting to burst out.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day,
Anne xx
