Orange.........

Simon says stand up if you have orange hair?

This week sees orange on the board. All I have to do now is get out there and find some.
Here is a good place to see lots of orange.

On my desk & Yellow all in one.........

Daisy
Today is not what is on my desk but what has been on my desk this week. Just some dolls. Made for no other reason than the need to do stuff. One will be going off as a birthday gift for a 3 year old though. I have also been able to add a bit more yellow for this weeks colour. I was sitting waiting for something to load on the computer and look over at the bookshelf and their I spied some yellow covers.

Yellow......

I know, I know oh the slackness, the slackness!
About a week and a bit ago I got really excited about posting weeks of colours. I started but didn't get much further than one post on white. Well this week I am going to start again with a bit more gusto. This week sees yellow and what a task that was. I don't wear much yellow, we really don't have anything around the house that is yellow even my outside surroundings don't contain much yellow( bring on green for that one) but I have found a couple of things to start of this week.

This label has forever been yellow(I think) and there is always a jar of it in our cupboard.

A beautiful yellow creation made by Django for fete de maman this year.

The delightful frangipani's that grow here in abundance.

Have a look over here and here for some lovely yellowness.

White week..........

Yesterday I was doing a catch up on some of the blogs that I read. I had missed so much while I was away, so much had happened out there and while I was on cats & quilts I got interested in this. Weeks of colour. Sounds nice and I like the idea of theme to do on your blog. It gives you something to think about in the quiet times.

On Sabine's blog she has started with white and that is where I will start. Reasons a bit further down the post. I'm not sure if we all follow her or we choose a colour to work with. I will find this out but she has suggested if anybody is going to run with the idea to let her know. I wouldn't mind knowing too and then I can make a new side bar blog roll.

My white photo's come from a friends house where I just happened to have afternoon tea yesterday. How weird it is the way things work. Read a blog, start thinking about an idea, go visiting and voila the opportunity to photo white is there. I should explain why. My friend Mrs A has decorated her house solely in white with splashes of colour through out. It looks fab and
eternally summery and fresh. I always come out of her house feeling good. Maybe it's the colour maybe it is just her company!

She even had a lovely coffee table book all about white rooms.
