Hello everyone, I hope you are enjoying this first weekend of September. Already, I am noticing a warmer golden light streaming in through the windows. I have been playing a little in photoshop elements today-I have so much I would love to learn about this program. I hope to do some tutorials when the weather gets cooler but I am not in any rush -I want to enjoy these final days of summer for awhile yet. What about you are you looking forward to Autumn or hanging onto summer for as long as you can? We are having all of our grandchildren up for a sleepover shortly so I better get ready for them - it should be a lively time! Thank you for visiting, Carolyn

"That beautiful season the Summer! Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; And the landscape Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood." ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow It is interesting how photographs turn out differently at different times during the day (of course, you are saying, why wouldn't they?!). To my eyes the light seems the same in the morning as it is in the afternoon and yet when I take pictures in the early morning and edit them later they are always covered in a hazy golden glow. I took some pictures the other morning of some treasures in my home and took my time editing them. I like how full of light they are! I like the contrast of soft and bright! I have always loved soft colours in a house - ivory walls, painted or pale wood furniture and vintage crystal. But I am also finding that I like, here and there, to see something a tad richer in hue. A large gold frame, a French chair in it's natural finish, an old-fashioned still-life on a darkened background, or a piece of antique china with bright flowers painted on it. The contrast draws the eye and creates a very romantic atmosphere. Here are a few photos I took in the early morning light in my home with that little touch of romance... This antique Art Nouveau jewelry box and the Prussian teacup below are both in my Etsy Shop! I am sharing with: What's It Wednesday

Hello everyone, I was really excited to pick up a copy of the newest Romantic Country magazine and see our little Boathouse featured as well as some of my summer garden shots. So, come into the sun room and enjoy a cup of tea while we enjoy the spring flowers and a peek through this lovely magazine. Spring tea I love this pretty porch on the cover styled by Fifi O' Neil. Now, for our Boathouse! I am so proud of my husband and son for building this little retreat with recycled materials etc. ~ it is the perfect place to relax and enjoy life's simple pleasures. Inside the Boathouse and iced tea on the porch. Can't wait until we can enjoy our meals in the garden again. Our garden bench nestled among the perennials. Thank you Romantic Country for featuring our Boathouse etc.! This week I plan to do some spring cleaning in the Boathouse to get it ready for the season and hopefully, relax with a cup of tea and watch the geese and ducks on the pond for a spell. Take care, Carolyn
