Hey Instafam I’m back from the beach, hope you’ve all had a good summer and ready to hit the coming Autumn season
🍂
I’m busy unpacking Marilyn and settling back in, so glad the sun is still shining and easing me back into home
🍂
I love Autumn don’t you ? I’m looking forward to prepping the farmhouse for cosy days and comforting dinners
🍂
I was reminded today by the lovely @the_greedy_gardener of this Autumn tablescape I did couple of years back when she came to cook for us as we celebrated Mr A’s birthday with friends and family
🍂
If you love a bit of foodporn do check out @the_greedy_gardener feed, never fails to hit the spot 😜
🍂
Great to be home 🏠 💋

This is my mum..
She would have been 75 today..
❤️
Like many mothers and daughters we had a difficult relationship and I spent most of her life vowing I wouldn’t be like her..
❤️
Now I find I’m just like her in many ways and as a mature and wiser me I can see that many of the things that I disapproved of were not who she was but the result of the life she’d lived which was very different to mine..so our beliefs were often different
❤️
In essence she was a strong, authentic, individual and determined woman, who loved to laugh and have fun..
❤️
Her favourite song was “I am Woman” by Helen Reddy long before Sex in the City made it famous again..
❤️
I realise I live by many of her favourite sayings & responses like..
❤️
“Just milk please, no sugar, I’m sweet enough “ 😜A sense of humour
❤️
“Don’t think about it just do it “👊strength & determination
❤️
“They’re all kippers and curtains”
Be authentic
❤️
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me”
IE - Don’t waste your time with worrying about people who try to tear you down..
❤️
“If I have to I can do anything...I am strong, I am invincible...I am Woman”
❤️
Miss you mum, love always 😘

Bloom by @print_pattern_archive
💋
I fell for this wallpaper design as soon as I spotted it at a trade show last September and I chatted with Cheryl @print_pattern_archive about how I’d love to use it for the ‘Marilyn’ project
💋
I hadn’t at that point realised the Hollywood link ...as this design was inspired by Frank Sinatra’s super glam L.A home...and is a reproduction of an original New York archive wallpaper...
💋
❤️Marilyn and Frank!💋
💋Match made in heaven ❤️
