Being Half Term, I was away for a few days earlier this week. I was in Cornwall initially and then on Tuesday morning I drove 6 hours to Warwickshire to see my Mum, and then a further 3 hours back to Brighton that evening…with a teenager and a cat!

I collected loads of foliage for my workshop next weekend, but I was so impressed by the colour in her garden when I looked through the downstairs window…

Sumac was one of my Granny’s favourites and these come from her garden originally…Photo 28-10-2014 12 15 00

Cheeks is very used to travelling and knows my Mum’s place well, but since the arrival of her own siamese a few years ago, Cheeks has always been more on edge there, although he loves to have a wonder round the garden as long as we’re with him…and someone has their eye on his arch enemy!Photo 28-10-2014 12 15 09

It was obviously irresistible not to have a quick arrange of colour on my mum’s table…the original table love of my life!

    Thats the true beauty of Autumn all those rich colours!… i love the indian style cushions and the comfy Siamese cat!… When I visit my mother in her Cornish cottage the first place i head to is her garden~ because of the more humid temps in the west country everything always seems so much more lush and green…though we get a lot of rain too!…The red and golden tones light up the lanes down here at the moment… cheers the rainy, blustery days 😉 xx

      Cornwall even stays lighter for longer!! I’m lucky that I get down there a lot too…this morning I’d have rather have been in a less windy place! 😉
