Bringing on baby…it’s raining in London so walking around soggy graveyards and picking blackberries. Back home for autumn ideas and dahlia dreaming.

Recently rediscovered in my Vogue Living collection, aren’t these pics lovely? Apart from wishing I could take pictures like Petrina and work with her one day, I love love love her foody and flower work.

hmmm what to do with blackberries…

Feeling blue, boat is clean, every window washed, the pan and pots cleared out, walls painted, cats have listened to my squeals and stopped bringing in mice, time’s running out now so I’m ironing linen…socks could be next but am hoping Captain steps in before I get that ridic.

Next obsession, tea towels and curtains of them. Thursday inspiration and larkspur confetti, done fresh it’s absolutely hippy heaven underfoot…try it!

Happy times on Hydrangea Hill in Greenwich. Gypsy Rose Flowers are in this months You and Your Wedding Vintage special…

Here’s to fond memories of a March wedding. A gorgeous couple – and a day full of giggles, cherry blossom, ranuncs, mason jars and fondant fancies.

No news no news, but weekend views through our porthole are in no particular order… reds, cases being packed, tinkering on Annie, checking out old school Penguin, and comfort eating in an autumnal august to soulful Nick Drake.

Our clocks have stopped…do do come soon baby girl.

Pinks and beiges….

No gypsy baby news but crates, hessian, vintage schmintage and all things french have been a bit of a summer swansong this year…so thrilling to get a mention on this lovely interiors blog which features all things up my rue. Including a great post about Hennes homeware. Want everything here and here.

I do get asked, low slung fruit boxes with illusion in seedling pots have featured in a summer wedding, mine procured at Kempton but check this lovely site out for some too…

This week I’m baby and granny proofing the boat, pics coming up.
