Flowers

It was time to say cheerio to all our fabulous friends, who had travelled over from the UK. They had all helped us so much over the weekend, and amongst it all we had shared some very lovely time together, laughing, joking, eating, drinking, partying, chatting, and generally catching up on our lives.

Pam was keen to do one last job for me before jumping in the car to head back to Calais. She collected all the vases together that we’d prepared for the party, and freshened up the flowers for a beautiful, delicate display, in the new vase I’d bought in Sens.

They look absolutely gorgeous in the hallway, which, if we keep the door closed, is keeping quite cool., even in this 38°C heat.

I’m also loving the simple look in the salle à manger, using some beautiful blue wine bottles, that I’d found a while back at a vide grenier, to display some of the other greenery from the weekend.

Simply beautiful.
