simple little pleasures......
A beautiful thrifted 1950's flour dredger,
a present from a lovely, Op shop savvy friend...
who knows my fondness for Cornish blue china.
There is something so very beautiful
and domestic about it.
A new Persephone book, a gift from my
boys dad. Which I have only read a little
of...with the lovely anticipation of
having a long way to go. I know its sitting
there just waiting......
A humble, unfinished water colour. Painted
on a rare and so very much enjoyed visit
to a painting class held by my beautiful teacher.
When I look at it I can feel all the merriment
and joy of being with such a fine group of
women again.
It all reminds me of a lovely quote, from
"Three hundred small pleasures
make people happier than one
magnificent one."

Oh! Cornish Ware, a 'Persephone' and flowers in watercolours - three of my favourite things in one post!
