Summer to Fall

 Hello , hello !!! 

It's beeen so long !!! It's so  nice to be back after so many months . I have really , really missed my little cyber space and our contact!!  I have meant to post since summer , but due to technical problems I never made it. But I'm here today with the 'photo album' of these last months. 

I was very fortunate to have a lovely summer time. We visited various holiday destinations in Greece and really relaxed, after the long and hectic winter and spring time. 

the photos above are from the very picturesque and  of great historical interest,   Nafplion.

Naxos island , in the Cyclades ,offers visitors an abudance of aesthetic and culinary pleasures.  I love the maze of little white-washed houses  that comprise its main town , Hora . Blue, white, turquoise colours everywhere and so many lovely  gift shops and art galleries. You just can't resist them!!

I  had to post the following pics of flowers from my summer balcony pots , garden and vases .

I love their vibrant 'sunny' colours !!

I saw this on the sky  while I was on the beach at the end of August . Very unusual!!

and then  September arrived  and summer soon  faded  away.....

Warmer colours and aromatic filter coffee , 

yellows and oranges, burgundies and off-whites, pumpkins and tea lights at home. 

walks in the hills  near my house, 

cyclamens, my most favourite flowers

handmade fabric pumpkins

and of course  some crochet for a new blanket.

                                               Mellow autumnal colours

                                          and some fall decor at home 

I love enjoying a cup of tea by the fireplace with  the fairy lights on and my scented candles.

Warm colours are so soothing .

Pine cones ar a must for fall decor .

Well , I hope you liked my little photo album  and took some ideas  for your home decor. 

 My best wishes to you all. I hope to be back soon with some Christmassy content. 

Love,

Summer wreaths

Hello lovely people from around the world!!!

I'm back after some time and very happy to share with you my more recent creations. My summer wreaths!!

As you can see , I have combined sea shells and star fish  with flowers  as  

I wanted them to be used not only during summer time but in spring as well. 

I love flowers and colour and sea , so I tried to make somehing that combines them all. 

I also used tiny chalk boards and turquoise ribbons  plus some beads. 
 

I'm very happy with the outcome and even happier that all of them have found new houses and now decorate some of my friends' homes! It feels so good to offer people you appreciate a little something that they can treasure for years and think of you!!

I will leave you here my dears, with a glimpse of my balcony and the beautiful sunflowers I bought from my  local street market  and with many wishes for a wonderful, safe , happy summer!!

My love to all,
