FLORAL FUN
Enjoying a tiny, caffeinated cuppa in front of our former shop on the West Highland Way. That repurposed chest of drawers / planter was one of the best ‘Pinspirations’ ever. Just look at those happy flowers popping like actual popcorn. The key to keeping the planter around for more than a year of bipolar Scottish weather? Yacht varnish. It required yearly coats with tons of that sticky - tedious to work with but necessary - stuff. When living through the ever-changing elements here, all painted wooden furniture living outside should have protection.
AGING GRACEFULLY & BEAUTIFULLY & STYLISHLY. AND BEING MORE THAN OKAY WITH IT.
So onto the topic of aging. This subject is near and dear to me, only partially because it comes up in daily conversation with other women (and men) of all ages. Really, every single day. When you’re going though your own day, just see how often aging comes up. Wait till you pay attention to the frequency, it’s kind of shocking.
