June Colours.

We`re now well into June, but because of the cold Spring, the garden is way behind. There are even still a few bluebells in bloom! I`ve planted out lots of seedlings among the perennial plants but the are still tiny. However everything is filling out now and there are a few flowers about. A wander with my camera yesterday proved that there is plenty of colour too…

Black, Ecru and Spring Green.

This week I`ve been inspired by the colour combination of black, ecru and spring green. I was given some furnishing fabric remnants in these colours recently and they seemed to fit perfectly with this time of year- they reminded me of new buds on bare branches and fresh green shoots sprouting out of black soil. I`m going to make up a nice big mood board and let this fresh, classic palette influence my work over the next week or two.
