If ever there was a day to sum up the season - today would be that day! I don't know about the rest of the world, or even the rest of the country, but Cornwall is a whole whirlwind of awful weather, miserable people and very wet feet!
This does, however, put me in quite a wintery mood and it got me thinking about all those lovely wintery accessories we indulge in when the weather turns bleak!!
I myself am a secret lover of terrible weather - I am always cold so it is lovely to wrap up in a fur cape or a big knitted snood (are they still in fashion?). I love to cuddle up in a blanket on the sofa like a bit of a recluse and listen to the rain splash in the garden!!
Rummaging through my portfolio tonight, I found this lovely winter themed photo which I took last year as a work project to advertise jewellery! Lauren (also an employee at the company) helped me set up the scene and bought in a few bits and bobs from home, ie the lovely bird and some bark, which I believe she picked from her tree! It reminds me of being a kid and making potions out of all the exotic plants at St Silivance, Castle Hornick (where I spent many years growing up!).
It is one of my favourite pictures in my entire portfolio!
I hope it makes you feel winitery too!
