Scandinavia meets France those Fabulous red and whites





At this time of year I love my red and white, it is Christmas to me , my Scandinavian roots and connections , with my mother's Norman roots. They were all Norsemen in the distant past after all !
The snowy view from my window this morning prompted me to surround myself with the wonderful rich reds and French raspberry reds I love so much and to share it with you.

Christmas Shopping with a difference

Two lucky friends will be getting these lovely hand made covered sketchbooks I found on my friend Lizzie Drake's stall at Cowslip Workshops Christmas weekend.
I am trying to shop for unusual and green gifts and these tick all the boxes.
There are other designs colours and sizes but red and white does it for me at this time of the year , especially as one is going to Norway
