...Waiting for Spring

❤❤❤♥❤❤❤
Oh' deary, deary me...The weather has just felt like constant stormy rain clouds...
So many times I have come to type up a blog post and just given up...Maybe it has been my mood?, But the rain for constant days in a row gets you down after a while...I long for some good proper Sunshine.
Yes! we've had a few Mornings or an evening here and there between rain clouds where the Sun has made an appearance But not for long...Blink and you would have quite honestly missed it!.
So yes! I'm waiting for Spring!!.

♥♥♥♥♥♥
I think my recent illustrations/art work have reflected my mood for Spring!...
I found some wonderful Vintage illustrations on Pinterest...It inspired some Spring Girl Drawings...
I also found while looking up Flower Fairies these Dutch ornaments ~ I'm not sure who they are by?


♥♥♥❤♥♥♥
But they are wonderful!!...(if you have any info let me know)
Also I have added these Prints and some other New ones into my shop (Link in left hand sidebar)

We've had a few walks this month including Dartington hall estate gardens, Buckfastleigh Abbey and gardens, Kit Hill in Cornwall, Totnes Market town and around our local Market town too along the canals.

I'm running a little Giveaway on my instagram feed....To win this New print...
All you have to do is tell me about a book you loved as a child and I'll pick a winner in a few days time.
**** UPDATED**** winner has been picked, Giveaway closed...

Its the kind of weather that makes you hibernate like a little mouse, snuggle up in a warm blanket and keep close to the fire...Ive still got all my twinkling lights out and around the fireplace and dresser top in the kitchen...I've been decorating the mantel with Spring blooms...To cheer me up!.

  1. Oh my.. your world is so cute and precious and adorable! I love your art and how you decorate your cozy home. I just admit after seeing your Cornish pitcher I had to go find one and buy it. Hopefully it will get here before the daffodils are done blooming here on our farm! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  2. Whenever I read your blog, I always get a warm cozy feeling, Kazzy. I love the cover of your recipe book. Are they all apple recipes? After seeing your crumble, I think I’ll have to make you tomorrow. I thought we might have a brighter, if extremely windy day today, but no, back to the rain here in Exeter. Hope you have a lovely weekend xx

  3. Gorgeous artwork and photos as usual. I hope things brighten up for you soon and you get some more sunshine. I'm truly over sunshine and heat right now and would love to trade places and cosy up in your cottage eating pancakes and gazing happily at your cute shelf with the rain pouring outside. xx Susan

  4. first bluebell! lucky you in sheltered Devon … I long to see one :) Walks in the woods (with rescue dogs, my new mission) have been dismal, thick mud up to your shins, slippy slidy, and thick brambles covering whole fields so you can't walk without being tripped and getting your ankles noosed, it's just no fun being out at the mo, so I share your hopes for Spring. The little Dutch ornaments are original, very sweet. Thanks for your cheery post.

  5. I'm reading your blog for a long time and I like the photo's and work you are making, the ornaments on your last blog are not Dutch but they are made in Germany, I live in the Netherlands and have often see them there, when you want to know more about it you can look here wendt-kuehn.de,

  10. Thank you for the amazing info you share with us! Best, love a good book list, and this is a great one with some I’ve read, some I’ve looked into and many I hadn’t heard of before. The kindle is going to feel a little data heavy soon… ThankYou So Much
