Vintage purchases from The Girls' Own Store in Bridport.
West Bay beach.
An early violet growing next to the stream in Portesham.
These are a few holiday snaps from out much-needed break in Dorset last week. I almost feel more of a thrill being at the beach in winter. I like the feeling of having the beach to ourselves. One afternoon all four of us went to Eype and the girls discovered how much fun can be had with a few hundred thousand pebbles.
It was very good to be away but it's funny how coming home always reminds me how fond I am of our little house.
The very last Making Winter week will begin tomorrow and you can join in over at Thriftyhousehold. It hardly seems possible that both winter, and this project are almost over. I have pie plans- after all, British Pie Week is coming up and I'd like to get some practice in.
Edited to add: there's a space available on my beginners' beading workshop this coming Saturday (25th). We'll be making necklaces with tiny found objects, vintage buttons and gemstones.
