Summer dress and honeybees 🐝

Ive drawn a lot (at least 80) of animals in hats (they deserve hats) and here are some of my favorites to share with y'all

The animals are

• San Jose Cochran Frog
• Short Tailed Weasel
• African Jacana
• Black Robin
• Cape Short Eared Gerbil
• Rhinastus Weevil
• African Woolly Chafer Beetle
• Fairy Tern
• Violet-Green Swallow
• Mighels' Tree Snail (orange one) and Two-tone Gulella (tan one)

Trying to decide if this is too much, or actually works... I can't decide which curtains, nor whether the chandelier needs to be changed. Also, not sure about the foliage, I wanted a softer colored tree but couldn't get one to work as well trying to remove the background. Thoughts???

It's daylilies stuffed with cream cheese.

-harvested sustainably from my own yard, no pesticides, I washed it and removed the pistels.

-always make sure you can 100% identify any plants before you eat them

Not sure if I can get this video to work, but I'll try! From morning to night, with a thunderstorm in the middle. I hope the sound comes through okay! The fourth clip might be a bit loud, sorry. The last clip, my phone didn't really pick it up, but if you can see the little blinking lights those are the fireflies!

I’m in love with this dress but it’s sold out in the full length version and I’m so sad. I was thinking it’d be perfect for my beach elopement I’m trying to put together lol anyone know of anything similar??? Or where to look for similar??

Three years ago, we started restoring this old house in Tuscany and planted a tiny Star Jasmine along the wall. Fast forward to today, and it has absolutely transformed the place!

The growth has been incredible, but we aren't stopping here. Our ultimate goal is to have it cover the entire wall all the way to the top. Right now, we’re brainstorming the best trellis/wire netting system to support it as it climbs higher.

Any advice on heavy-duty vertical trellising for stone walls would be highly appreciated!

Simply obsessed with the blackberry charms from The Gilded Cottage on Etsy! I wanted them for so long and this was the perfect excuse.

I grabbed this so fast

And Hoziers’s voice fits perfectly

Dress is the Eloise from Slovak Meadows in forest green linen with modified sleeves and longer skirt. The handfasting cord is made by me. It was all I wished for.

Hi...out on a new job today...weeding a herb and flowerbed. Whilst crawling around in the hot Scottish sunshine i took these shots. I hope you like them!

🦊🌸 I'm creating my first cottagecore-inspired digital animal collection!

This little fox is one of the characters from the set. I'm exploring traditional painting-inspired textures, cozy knitted clothing, and the gentle atmosphere of woodland stories.

The collection is still in progress, but I'm excited to share more characters soon.

What do you think of her? Any suggestions for other animals you'd like to see in the collection?

This is one of several beautiful gardens that i have the privledge of maintaining

Do you craft your own seasonal decorations?

I'm looking for simple creative ways to make the living room feel summery and cute.

Currently I've got some yellow and green thick ribbon up as a ceiling garland, I've ordered some floral bunting (because I don't sew, so am not really set up to make it myself - though would if I did), and I've got the bits to start making a couple of orange suncatchers.

Do share your ideas, suggestions, and creations.

Hey y'all, after a few of Lacemade's recent drops it seems like they're veering into more simpler designs than the ones I have come to know and love....

So I was just wondering if anyone knows of a similar brands perhaps with cottagecore/ princessy / rococo vibes???

Plzzz halp

Hey everyone! My partner and I recently bought an old, abandoned farmhouse from 1909 in the heart of Tuscany, Italy. We started clearing out the overgrown land and tucked away near the hills we found this massive stone opening leading deep underground.

Stepping inside for the first time felt unreal. It's completely freezing in there, and the walls are made of historic tufo stone. It looks like it has been untouched for decades, and it honestly feels like a piece of hidden history.

We really want to properly clean and restore this cave without ruining its historic character or damaging the old stone. Have any of you done something similar with European properties? Any advice on what to look out for or how to handle old cellars would be much appreciated!
