Roses from the garden 🌸 I have no idea what this one is called but I do know I love it. I've been observing how beautiful they are at each stage as they bloom: Stunning and worth attention, love and respect even as they age.......Have a good Thursday lovelies 🌸 . . . #myquietbeauty #myseasonalshelf #myseasonalstory #mindfulmoments #onmyshelf #myinteriorvibe #stylingtheseasons #embracingtheseasonsathome #botanicaldreams #botanicalpickmeup #simpleandstill #arosebyanyothernamewouldsmellassweet #myfloraldays #underthefloralspell #inspiredbynature_ #seasonalliving_spring #daysofsimpleandslow #mysimplystyledsquares #simplystyledflowers #mindfulmaker #maketimeforblooms

Well, Spring rabbit is finally here and she's loving her wreath of primroses. She isn't yet an embroidery pattern but when time allows, I'm working on it as well as a version using my Spring colours. I'm learning to be even more patient with the process in this new reality, which is a good thing, but it's hard as my head is full of ideas I want to try and create! Have a good Wednesday loves 🌸🐰🌸 . . . #britishstitchers #slowstitch #slowstitching #slowsimpleseasonal #stitchingtheseasons #seasonalstitching #botanicaldreams #makersgonnamake #molliemakers #myfloraldays #embroideryhooplove #embroiderydesigner #embroideryhoopart #stitchersgonnastitch #dmcembroidery #pursuepretty #inspiredbynature_ #petalsinprettyrings #seasonalliving_spring #seasonalcrafting_spring #collectandstyle #doitfortheprocess

Tuesday and another Spring pretty for you today. My late Dad's rose plant is full of flowers, boasting tinges of pink as it fades to pale yellow. Glorious.

Happy May pretties! Boy am I glad Friday is here. After a little bit of school work, I have an afternoon of doodling and stitching planned. What are you up to today? I hope your day is full of Spring loveliness 🌸🌸🌸 . . . #seasonalliving_spring #booksandblooms #crochetlove #myseasonallife #myseasonalstory #springposy #gardenersworld #frommygarden #intentionalseasons #seeingthepretty #slowsimpleseasonal #noticingthelittlethings #itsthesimplethings #simpleandstill #simplystyledflowers #makersgonnamake #craftingismytherapy_may #mindfulmaker #mindfulmoments #pursuecalm

We've had a bit of a wobble this week. We've been home schooling ourselves silly to try and complete the volume of work being uploaded by our schools and it just isn't sustainable or healthy. The teachers are doing an amazing job and I am sure schools are feeling the pressure to continue providing an outstanding education to pupils in person in some cases, but for the majority electronically. It is complicated and there are different factors involved as I am sure there are for every family. We're still teaching and learning, but we're letting go of unreasonable expectations whether imposed from outside or within, we're putting boundaries in place and we're quietly rebelling and doing it our way to ensure we all stay as centred, happy and healthy as possible. For me, that means more time for nature appreciation and creativity! How are you lovelies? How are you really feeling today? Sending you love and light 😚💕 . . . #andbreathe #worklifebalance #mindfulmoments #myeverydaymagic #itsthesimplethings #floralpickmeup #underthefloralspell #myfloraldays #myseasonallife #seasonalliving_spring #slowliving #slowlivingforlife #fromwhereistand #mindfulmaker #allthingsbotanical #pursuecalm #slowsimpleseasonal
