daffs a bloomin in february...

this mild winter,

has forced some of my daffodils

to bloom a whole month earlier than usual....

with impending frost this weekend,

i gathered some of these early buttercups and brought them inside to enjoy.

cheerful bouquets set in pretty glass, alongside my paper weight from the....ahem.... 1970's....
an unexpected and delightful vignette for this ordinary corner of my kitchen...

sitting below this newly acquired vintage clothes pin bag...

which cleaned up ever so nicely after a soak in Biz and Bleach.....

and hung in the window by chance to dry...

anything with sweet little tweets on it is welcome in my home....

lately, i have been hearing the birdies outside cheerfully singing away.

vintage coffee cups on quirky hooks...

old prints of a squirrel and of woods (bought for super cheap and later , after researching the artist on-line, worth $500.!!) weeeee.....

a heart for valentines....

the daffodil bouquets moved to the kitchen table...

with the warm glow of the afternoon sun streaming through...

it feels as though...

spring

is

not

far.

are there daffs bloomin where you are?

like sleeping under fluffy clouds.....

how delighted i was,

to find these lovely and white

Pottery Barn Canopies,

while at an estate sale recently...

just perfect!!

i just love them hanging over the twin beds in one of my guest rooms!!

~like sleeping under fluffy clouds~

grey...

the sky

the song

the singer

the art

the artist

the locker

the mood

the feeling

~feeling grey today~

the winter is like that sometimes...

at least i could see through all the greyness...

to give new life too...

...to paint this old piece...

here is the before of this dingy old locker.

are you feeling the grey??

p.s. i just like the number 2, that's why.

p.s.s. can you puh-lease send me some of your lovely snow? i need some white.
