spring warmth...

recently...

...some extremely welcome rain arrived a couple of weeks ago - much appreciated by the garden & resulting some lovely morning-light sparkliness...

...finished a new batch of copper & bronze clay pieces in time for market...

...not so dark on morning walks now that daylight savings is finished, but the mornings are getting colder - I'm sure our first frosty walk isn't far away...

...back at Wirrabara Producers Market on a sunny Easter Sunday & a lovely weekend at Flinders Street Market last week (& our new gazebo had its début)...

...think I might have mentioned before that we don't get lots of autumn colour around here (mostly non-deciduous trees), but there's one across the road from the information centre & I spent a bit of time taking photos last time I had a shift there...

...speaking of colour - finished off my batch of polymer too...

...baked a batch of Anzac biscuits on ANZAC day - it seemed like the right thing to & also they just taste awesome. Also made another batch of double chocolate banana muffins & we ate a bit of easter chocolate too...

...a few roses blooming in the morning light & some more bits & pieces on my window sill...

...& had fun playing along with April Love 2015 on instagram (even if I only did about half the themes).

It's raining! We haven't had a big rain in far too long. I'd be quite happy with the rain sticking around for days - we had lovely warm & sunny weather for the Folk Fair & I think cooler times are ahead.

It might be autumn here, but on the other side of the world its spring, with orchards full of blossoms.

If you are in Adelaide this weekend you should check out the Good Earth Market special event at the Flinders Street Market - I'm wishing I could go...

Some gorgeous images of childhood.

A touch of nature - flowering spring bulbs, unexpected butterflies, a beautiful wander, a cloud of pinkness, golden light, autumn magic.

It's raining today - wish someone would take me out for coffee & doughnuts. Or bake me a batch of chocolate filled hazelnut cookies. Or banana buttermilk bread. Or pear & walnut cake.

Adorable ceramics, beautiful ceramic jewellery, elegant ceramic dishes & bowls, ceramic pods.

& a bit of cuteness is always a good idea.

floral...

something new: flos, fine silver flower earrings

colours & stitches

Making my contribution to a little family project - we're stitching some felt ornaments for market. It's lots of fun coming up with designs, picking colours & stitching...& it's a perfect sit by the window with a cup of tea (or in front of the TV in the evening) activity.

(the bottom photo shows everyone's efforts - I've only made two so far)

...and it was called...yellow...
