Transitions

The garden is awash with the shades of late Summer...

The pastel pinks and vibrant plums of the hydrangea have faded to the subtle tones of early Autumn.

The cascading clusters of a fairy rose...

share the same trellis of a wandering lumina pumpkin.

And the coolness of the mornings has inspired a new creative venture...

some antique linen and old lace will soon become a pinkeep.

I  certainly hope you are enjoying these last lingering days of August...

August

 August is often referred to as the dog days of Summer ... a month of heat and humidity, crickets  chirping, fireflies lighting up the hedgerow in the early evening, lemonade and putting up preserves.

Around here it is all of the above plus a lazy cat or two basking in the sunlight.

And I must admit with all the canning going on, a little squirrelly at times.

So I think I'll find a cool place to sit, put some of this delectable handspun yarn I recently purchased on the needles...

 
And indulge in the dog days of Summer too!
