accidental art. happy monday

flowers for friday

the week here has seem quite and slow after the last few. i have been rewatching some of the downton abbey series. i just cant get over the beautiful costumes and set design. so with inspiration from the edwardian periods soft, romantic formality i put together this little arrangement. tulips, ranunculus, garden roses, porcelinia roses and lambs ear & just a bit of sparkle from a vintage hotel silver teapot. 

board

i have a deep affinity for boards; cutting, cheese, charcuterie etc. i have quite a collection at this point and use them for all sorts of serving options.

a big party or just me at the breakfast table...it doesn't really matter. paired with a blanket or vintage tablecloth they make the perfect picnic accessory too. 

bookhou at home

my apologies for a little absence from the virtual world. i worked on weddings like crazy over the weekend and took monday & yesterday to wind down a bit...sorta. it is nice to take some time away but i did miss all the chatting and energy from everyone. hope you have been keeping well. 

another little etsy shop to love! bookhou at home. im beginning to think i need to make a trip to toronto..so many of the shops i love on etsy are from that area and this one even has a brick and mortar in the city. i love the simple natural color pallets of this shop and there are so many different media represented in the work. the flock mobile has just shot to the top of my wish list. 

a lovely blog and magazine too! 

flowers for friday

 a few sprays of decadent chocolate orchids. each stalk is filled with lightly perfumed blossoms. gathered together in a hand thrown pedestal vase i think they are simply divine. they remind me of the opulence of the 1920's & my house smells gorgeous!
im working on a few weddings this weekend with Huntlittlefield ! what are you doing for the holiday weekend?
