My favourite flowers (roses excepted) are sweetpeas, their sent and delicate colours are what capture me and i cannot help but wish that they were avaliable all year, but then perhaps their limited time makes them that bit more special. Here are some in the garden i wanted to show you wish i could send you their scent too.... and a close up
their are some other colours growing up canes too but these are a different variety to what my dad usually grows and they are in a basket.
This is a feature on Savannah Miller in Elle magazine talking about her new clothing line with her sister Twenty8twelve isnt she beautiful and i love the vase of flowers. she has lots of interesting trinkets and clothes in her wardrobe and many passed onto her from her little sis how lucky is that. She lives a very different life to Sienna though as she is married with a little boy.here's a pretty necklace they showed, that sienna gave her on her wedding day....
Lastly i wanted to include a photo i took the other week as we drove passed The Angel of the North a huge steel structure of an angel that is a favourite of the people here,by artist Anthony Gormley.
i just love your blog! it is so magical!

I was thrilled when I found your pretty North East blog. I’m afraid I am a lurker but when I saw the Angel I had to say something!
So reminds me of home. In fact I only posted about it yesterday!

Hi Kat. Love sweat peas! They are gorgeous and when I saw that huge photo I instantly could almost smell them! I miss them...I would love to plant some and seeing these made me decide to want to do so! Hope you are well, you are so quiet sometimes-I have a Spring blog party on the 7th at my blog if you would like to come!Bonnie
