Some sunny day inspiration...

A glorious Monday off and I find myself drawn once again to the internet in search of some beautiful images to add to my collection! I have however had a busy mornings pottering - I have just planted my first ever crop of lettuce aswell as some runner beans, now I must wait, the most testing part of the process I feel! So a little quiet time and a few cups of tea is perfectly justified!

Whilst flicking through Country Living I came across the 'Wedding Special' and within it I found this little floral gem. Miss Pickering creates beautiful arrangements using locally sourced flowers, something that I find very admirable as to do it this way involves a great deal of work, research and a genuine passion for fresh, seasonal flowers. And her shop, well it's a dream, what a lucky lucky lady! How wonderful it would be to go into work each morning, look around and think "I did this, this is mine, and it's absolutely gorgeous!" She must surely feel very smug most, if not all of the time, and quite rightly so.

Enough daydreaming for now, I'm going make my way to the National Portrait Gallery and see the Vanity Fair exhibition, then maybe take a wander down to the botanic gardens(I haven't been yet, very shamefull!) where no doubt some further day dreaming shall ensue!
