I'm not sure about you,mbut I always slump a bit in January. I'm longing for the lighter nights, warmer sun, and some colour to burst into the garden! Well I've been joining in with a few others on Instagram, looking at the positives each day in January........thought I would share them here as well......think I might do this in February too!
Have a lovely weekend everyone, look out for the positives!!!

ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day!
Thank you Clare! Have a lovely weekend :) xxx
DeleteLove the picture of the kitty buried up to his neck in colorful crochet! And I have Smeg envy - your coffee pot is adorable!!
ReplyDeleteShe just loves that blanket.....and I'm in love with my kettle, bonkers I know but I can't help it! :) xxx
DeleteLoved sharing your positives. Your cat looks so cozy!

Jacqui, my cat always looks cozy! ;) xxx
DeleteI've just scrolled up and down your photos about eight times, I love every single one of them. Such a gorgeous way to find the positives and brighten up your day. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by Kate, it's a way of recording stuff....there's always something positive, we've just got to look! :) xxx
DeleteLovely idea I feel just like you do its been a terrible start to the year so far for me but I am longing for the lighter nights and the sunshine and warmer weather I know we shouldn't be wishing the year away already. Lovely colourful photo's is that your cat in the crochet :-) ? love the top photo to the yellow cabinet is gorgeous with the vintage fabrics the whole room compliments itself. Have a lovely weekend to, dee x
ReplyDeleteOh Dehlia, I'm sorry it's been such a bad start, and I'm hoping things improve really quickly for you. Yes that's minnie, never far away from a crochet blanket in winter, or a vintage sheet in the warmer months! :) xxx
DeleteNaaah... Not me. Always energized. Ready to tackle things. February is worse. A dull month. Thank God for school break spicing it up with happenings... Something is on its way Amanda. It might take a week or two but it is on the way to cheer you up!

I bet you have bags of energy.....that's not what's winging its way over is it? ;) well my dear, whatever it is, I'm sure it will put a big, wide smile on my face! :) xxx
DeleteGreat idea, the first three months of the new year is always a drag. Lets see if I crochet a couple of squares, make a few patchwork hexies or work on my cardigan each evening by April I could have a completed project. What to do, what to do! Love your Liberty fabric selection.
ReplyDeleteI'm planning something similar, use those darker evenings to get two projects completed! Let me know when you've done them and I'll pop over and have a look! :) xxx
DeleteI love your photos do cheerful, your cat looks very happy with January! The positives are there we just have to look for themxx
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, and they don't need to be huge things either! :) xxx
DeleteYour diner corner is amazing, I'm keen on yellow and you have absolutely perfectly matched the colors...
ReplyDeleteThank you, it certainly is a very happy space.....always summer in there! :) xxx
DeleteI have posted on my blog my first three projects of the year,all knitting ,but I am looking for a crochet project.Looking at your pictures I expired some lovely crochet.
ReplyDeleteI am also looking forward to Spring as we have moved into a new house and have no idea what will appear.Lots,I hope.Fingers crossed.Have a great 2015.
A new garden, how exciting.....hope lots of wonderful plants and flowers pop up! :) xxx
DeleteCiao Ada!!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust came back from our holidays in London…. I wanted to say this : I love to have you back!!!!
xxxxxx Ale
Heeeeeello Ale, I can't wait to see those fabulous images you will have in your camera! :) xxx
DeleteOh yes yes! I'm doing this very thing but with a fervent search for floral cheeriness.
ReplyDeleteI have a shameful confession Ada. I covet your kettle.
Happy Sunday to you. I do hope today brings some lovely moments
xxx
It is lovely isn't it, I have to say we've been using a very dodgy one for the past few months as I was determined to wait until one of these went on the shelves! Enjoy your floral pursuits! :) xxx
DeleteHello, its lovely to see you back, ive missed you and your blog. Its like having a friend back x
ReplyDeleteHow lovely of you to say Karen, I'm very glad to be back, thank you for letting me know you're out there! :) xxx
DeleteLovely positive things. It can be difficult at this time of year after a busy Christmas, especially is the weather is not nice. It is good to look for the good things in life though isn't it. Some lovely things captured here and I hope that you can find more in the weeks to come! xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Amy, the positives are definitely there......have a lovely week Sweetheart :) xxx
DeleteHello Ada, What delightful photos. Besides your penchant for colour, you may or may not have noticed that your photos feature textures. Cool tiles, rough shag rug, smooth wood. I can almost smell the coffee. No, wait, I CAN smell the coffee! In my cup, as I enjoy your blog.
ReplyDeleteSherrie xx
Hello Sherrie! Can't beat a bit of texture, colour and coffee! :) xxx
DeletePositive thinking is good, as is your Smeg kettle - very nice! ;)
ReplyDeleteSssh, don't tell anyone but I've got the toaster too! :) xxx
DeleteHi Ada! What lovely photos, very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteI love your crochet and your cute cat snuggled up!
Your room is nice and bright - and oh so tidy!!! (I really must tidy my wool and craft things soon!!)
Love your mini hexagons!!!
Just a question: how do I find you on instagram so that I can follow you?? Will you tell me the link please - would you leave me a comment on my blog? I just joined as well!!! It's fun!
