For me the beauty of France is in the small things. An artichoke flower on an old chair in a French garden for example.
A basket of lavender brought to me by a friend....
The first peaches of summer & rose petals to make a potpourri....
Or a little bird on the weathervane of the house across the road, there to greet me as I throw open my window to the morning sunlight.
I hope you also take pleasure in the small things when you are
Small but beautiful things! Lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. I think there's more of an awareness of the small things in France. Love the sky in that photo of the bird on the roof. Thanks for playing along with Dreaming of France. Here’s my Dreaming of France meme
ReplyDeleteSmall things do so often express the beauty of our surroundings- your small things are lovely. I wonder what that bird is? It looks like a woodpecker possibly?
ReplyDeleteI can almost smell the lavender and the ripe peaches :) I agree with you - the small things are what matter. Love all these pics and this post. Have a wonderful week, Sally, with lots of little things that make you smile.
