Last year I planted three peony bushes. My mom separated parts of hers to give me – one of them came from my great grandmother! I haven’t gotten any blooms off mine yet, so I went out and bought myself a small bouquet last week… they are so pretty, one of my favourite flowers.
I am just about to head out camping for the rest of the week. I am hoping for good weather, though we might get a lot of rain! Oh well, it would be an excuse to put my feet up and read a good book…
This Basic Black Bralette is what’s getting me through my pregnancy. It’s so light and soft, yet pretty at the same time. I wear a lot of black, so it’s perfect for under my everyday clothes….

July 3, 2014 at 12:52 amWow, you've outdone yourself with your peony photo shoot! Peonies are my very favorite, but I don't have one in my flower bed (haven't been able to find a bush at my local flower shop). I do have a potted shamrock that my mom split off for me- her neighbor's grandmother brought it to the States from Ireland over 100 years ago, and shared a split with her! It's so special to have plants with a history. 🙂

July 3, 2014 at 7:18 pmWow, these are so gorgeous! I don't know why I'm still surprised, really… You always make such beautiful things! Oh and you just gave me a great idea! I've been wanting to make a sleeping mask, but didn't know what fabric I wanted to use, but I have some white eyelet cotton lying here that would be perfect, now that I've seen your white sleeping mask above, it is simply gorgeous!
