Prettifying February










"One must maintain a little bit of summer, even in the middle of winter."

Henry David Thoreau 

I'm on a mission.

I'm prettifying February.

What with the heavy, grey skies, biting winds and relentless rain, it jolly well needs it, don't you think?

Hope all is cosy and dry with you.

  10. Yes! It needs it!
    I am surrounded by at least a foot of snow at my house and frigid temps.
    Come on Spring!
    Your beautiful post does help though :)))

  11. Ah you've done a wonderful job of prettifying, Heather - a gorgeous post, particularly your lovely cowl and freesia flower which I can almost smell from here! I had freesias and pink rosebuds in my wedding bouquet many many moons ago and love them! Hugs, Joy x

  22. You have certainly succeeded ... it is soooooooooooooooooo gloomy here, I think I'd better do some prettifying of my own :)

  23. Yes, I think this winter did need some major prettifying - good job! It's been a grim old winter so far - thank goodness for some milder temperatures and the odd blue sky we've had this week. Hope you are well lovely. x
