Hello everyone! I hope you all had a nice weekend.
Blogger sure has been giving me some trouble lately. I have no idea why, but for some
reason it was showing on blog rolls that my last post was published two days ago, when
it was clearly a week ago since I've published my last post... very strange.
At least I've finally been able to get my comments link issue resolved. It now appears
directly under my blog post, like it's supposed to. Thank you to those of you who have
taken the time to leave your lovely comments. I appreciate them so much.
All the photos I'm sharing today are all about texture. I love the contrast of placing
something soft and pretty next to something rough and chippy or tattered and torn. It
makes the perfect balance to me...
Linking to these fun and inspiring parties:
Well, that's all, my friends. Thanks for visiting today. I hope you all enjoy your week!
'Til next time...
~ Jo :-)




Very nice!

Hi Jo~ I am so glad to see you are accepting comments again. I like the communicative part of blogging and missed that when you turned them off. So glad you are all the way back!
ReplyDeleteEeeeep! When did you start allowing comments again, Jo? I've missed 'talking' with you!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is (as always) just gorgeous! I have been setting some antique bottles in the sunlight to get that beautiful lavender color - I have no clue how long it will take, but it is so pretty!
Little Happy Dance - Jo is back! :)

ReplyDeleteHi. Just stumbled upon your site while searching for ideas on Pinterest. I absolutely love everything on here. This would be my dream house!! Your photos are absolutely gorgeous and the flowers/garden breathtaking
ReplyDeleteYou should try making paper flowers and putting them in your home. They don't go bad and they can be quite pretty if you work hard on them.
