Flowers and music...food for the soul!

Hello my lovelies! I am slowly sprucing up little corners of our home in an attempt to bring some summer cheer to a very dreary, wet July in the UK. It has been utter torrential rain for weeks on end, so I think my next craft project might be to build an ark! I try to stay chirpy, amidst the squelching garden and dampness that seeps into ones bones, but oh, to feel the warm sun on ones face again would be like manna from heaven! Anyhow, I have done a little brolly trotting in and out of the thrift shops, and have found a few cheery, floral touches to remind me of summer!

I adore beautiful embroidery, and found these...

I also stumbled upon these sweet floral wine glasses. They look so cheery, and delicate!

Now, there is one thing that always lifts my mood, and that is to sing out loud. This doesn't happen very often, as the house needs to be quiet with no ears but my own to serenade to! And our  house is never quiet! I do love music from old films, shows and musicals, and when the opportunity presents itself, I may well belt out a show tune! Now imagine my delight at finding these lovelies...original old film music sheets from the 1940's! The front page illustrations are charming! I think they would look lovely framed, and up on the wall. The only problem is, that I am fast running out of available wall space! Just take a look...

My favourite one, featuring the lovely Judy Garland...

I loved the illustration on this music sheet...

So, a little thrifting success this past week! I do find joy in the little things, and I hope that you will also stay joyfull, regardless of the elements, the weather, or whatever else life throws at you!

May sunshine follow you wherever you are, but if it's showers of blessing that you need, may the heavens open it's doors to you too!
