daily musings of a vintage addict * I am totally obsessed with all things vintage * trying to keep up with my past...and sometimes ordinary everyday life

My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

au revoir summer


say good bye to summer
just enjoy sitting outside * with supper by candlelight.
cover the table with a white cloth.
gather the last of the summer flowers from around your garden
and place them randomly on the cloth with tea lights among them. don't forget a few mosquito coils to keep those mozzies at bay
and just sit & reflect on this past season

A great suggestion Robyn. I hadn't even thought about the change in season that is upon us, which is rather sad. I always loathe summer and here another has come and gone without me really noticing. It's been hot, but it hasn't struck me like it has in past years. Though I look forward to the cooler months I'm a little taken aback that summer is over so soon this year!

Oh you say good bye to the summer and we live in hope to welcome it soon! It has snowed here again and will go on snowing for at least another week and I can't wait for spring. How much temperature difference in Celsius do you have between summer and winter btw? I guess your winter will be warmer than our spring, right? What is a cool breeze for you in autumn is probably our hottest summer day temperature.
