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

J'aime ces choses de cru

a few vintage bits n pieces that I adore
from around my home


apologies to all those that speak French -

I am not sure if the title is correct for 'I love these vintage things' - I found it on the internet & seeing France is the country of love or so I am told, I thought a french title very fitting for the day of love

- my french is limited to 'bonjour'

Happy Valentines Day dear Robyn! xxx

and I love your funny french

Well I can help you. I speak french because I've lived there for a year and I can tell you that cru means more like raw, uncooked, rough, untender, crude, barbarian etc.

So I think it's not exactly what you wanted to say.

J'aime les choses "ancien"

or
instead of ancien

- vieux
- agé
- nostalgique
- rétro
- brocante

What you've said means translated:

I love these things of raw
