Thursday's tea

Today I'm inviting all you lovely ladies

to come over to my garden for a

tasty cup of Thursday tea

Let's walk around the house

Enjoying the blue sky

and all the calming fresh green

Walk underneath the bow

To sit down next to the pond

Talented sweet Jacqueline made these gorgeous heart-shaped tea bags. Her blog is so inspiring. The tea time treat box is the loveliest, not to forget the teaspoon, which is adorable too. Do check out Jacqueline's sweet little corner in the world, here. And while you are there, you should pop over to her Etsy shop.

Etsy, we really do love Etsy, don't we?

Wishing you a terrific, tasty tea-y Thursday!

Roses

Yesterday, the children

picked a bunch of

pink & white roses

fresh from our garden.

Wishing we all had scent buttons on our computers

I would have loved sharing the fragrance

The girls made some 'perfume' using

15 drops sweet almond-oil &

5 drops lavender-oil

We are still enjoying the white bowl

filled with pink, love this shade of pink,

roses leaves.

I hope you are all having a rosy week so far.

Sweet Street

I felt like walking right into a

lovely Fairy tale.

It was right there in Odense

one of the sweetest streets I have ever seen.

Have a great new week!

Keepsake

When I met this cute little pin,

I decided to start collecting

these lovelies.

I bought this one in Denmark

so from now on

a cute little pin

will be my keepsake

from the places we visit.

Must think of a gorgeous place to visit over the weekend,

so this little swan will no longer be alone.

What name should I give her?

Would love to hear what name comes first to your mind!

XOXOXOXO

Pretty Pinky Pink

Hi there all you lovely ladies

Today I'm doing a post on pretties

Dear Joyce is hosting

this fun game called

Friday Pretties, here

Are you ready?

Let's hop in my pinky pink

find our way through that fence

entering this cozy home

and admire the chandelier,

love the chandelier!

All pictures were taken by me in Valdemars Slot, Denmark

In the Pinky Pink

Through the Whity White

Entering the Yellowy Yellow

Looking at the Blue-y Blue

Wishing all you lovely ladies a

Perfect Pretty Pentecost !

April showers ...

April showers bring May flowers

my HC Andersen umbrella

and

my pink clematis montana {finally blooming}

I love showers, evening showers

and

I really do love flowers

Color boost

Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?

Can one really explain this? No.

Just as one can never learn how to paint.

Pablo Picasso

A Flower shop

A Shoe store
