I always love walking around and taking photographs, especially of old stuff, aged wood, and of course, flowers!
Along the way, I found two goats, Spike and Oreo. Bet you can guess who is who. I fed them apples.
This is the little house where they live.
Such a gorgeous day as well! Not a cloud in the sky!
I love all of the peeling paint and worn out wood! Great design inspiration!
I also came across this plant in the greenhouse. It's called a "mulla mulla". Sounded Aussie to me, and yep, it's native to Australia and Tasmania. The little tree-like blossoms were only 3 inches or so. Love! Looks like some alien landscape to me!
Ahhh! The goats! And that weathered wood.... so dreamy. I have some pieces laying around and a magazine picture pulled out. I'm looking forward to using the weathered word in designs. I love that last plant! I can't wait to see what you do with a design based on it...
ReplyDeleteThat plant was such a surprise to find! I think I'm going to do some work on tropicals, I have TONS of reference pictures from living in Florida. Big trend for next year (I always think "next year") is "Exotic Profusion: Colour explosion – Exotic flauna mixes – Rainforest blooms – Digital and watercolour effect mixes – High contrast prints – Neon brights – Bird of paradise and orchid floral studies – Pattern overlays!
