November

An overcast day with a little drizzle that finally feels like November, calls for some hot chocolate.

A good chance to use these beautiful vintage Arabia of Finland coffee cups I thrifted a few months ago, the pattern is such a sweet treat. A Thursday afternoon, having hygge. I also love using my mom’s heart napkins from Odense that I remember so dearly from childhood.

Happy boy loading up on marshmallows!

simple holiday table

Is simple festive? I think so. Natural elements are always my favorite, I saved these sycamore leaves a few weeks ago for a halloween costume that never was. The hydrangea was dried on the stem on its side - I try not to cut them all summer because I think they are so much more beautiful when the depth of color comes out after they have aged. The leaves look really nice ruffled over and down a table too.

mushrooms (fall color)

These are some mushrooms from fall 2016, that I shot for my flower friends series with my mom. This was one of my favorite locations - we found the best light in an alley. It always goes to show you really have to be open and some of the best things can happen.
