Happy Monday...

Our backyard is full of flowers and today is a new day.

Here are a few things that I have enjoyed 

while I have been catching up on my blog reading. 

I hope you enjoy them too...

Happy Monday (camera inspired)

My mind is on photography. Inspired to take photos after the road trip on Saturday.

Hoping that the weather will improve this week so that I can take the camera with me on adventures. What are you planning this week?

Here are a few camera inspired links to get me in the mood. Happy Monday! Ames xo

Wouldn't mind finding a spot like this, to lean back and relax. Maybe on the weekend. 

Till then, happy Monday and have a magical week xo Ames

2. Jennifer from Playing with Fire has an amazing portrait giveaway which ends this week. I particularly love her Twin Peaks portraits which are featured on the blog post. Why not enter and see if you can have your portrait stitched?
3. Sarah London's book will be released soon, entitled Granny Square Love. Looking forward to it.

Much Love (Happy) Monday

I am inspired by two blogs today. I admire the sentiment of kit and nancy, which is dedicated to two Grandmothers. Much Love has a cheery love list each Monday, known as Much Love Monday. With sensibility, I thought I would merge ideas from both and make my usual Happy Monday post into a Much Love Monday post.

So today, I love Grandmothers. Of course, this post is dedicated to my two Grandmothers who have passed away in the last few years.

 What are you loving today?

For more Much Love Monday - pop over here. To participate, all you have to do is include a photo of something with a heart in it and tell us what you are loving today.

Have a lovely week everyone.

I hope you find something special to do, that warms your heart. Ames xo

I am thinking about reclaimed spaces this week. 

I love the idea of converted buildings floating in a cloud of history.  

Have a great week everyone, I hope something special comes your way.

Take time out to enjoy a break on the roof top, 

even if you have a million things lined up for the week xo

Happy Monday...

There is a lot going on at the moment and I am trying to juggle a few commitments. I hope that all components of my life come together this week - much like this group of vases held together with ribbon via a creative mint. Happy Monday everyone! Ames xo
