Orangery

It’s nice to be able to live part of the year with doors & windows opened – with an invisible boundary between outside & inside.

Preferably with upholstered furniture instead of the traditional outdoor furniture.

A courtyard / orangery that becomes a kind of a summer-living room.

The moment before

Christmas Eve, early morning, much has already been prepared with Christmas shopping, food, cleaning, decorations – a quiet moment at the back before breakfast, a cup of coffee & then the Christmas festivities starts.
And I am so grateful that the weather is cool with breezy winds. (Not the usual heat of 40 degree heat).

Winter picnic

Wouldn’t you just love a winter picnic in a setting like this?

Sheepskin rugs, blankets, pots, porcelain plates, lighted candles with snow all around.

It’s beautiful and refreshing.

In the sun

I am an ordinary ordinary woman who is very much into traditions, the way I’ve

gotten used to – such as that, it should be cold, snow  freezing temperatures,

when celebrating Christmas. If I can’t get that, I might as well go to a resort

(which it is not necessary here in Sydney with all the hundreds of beaches around)

& celebrate in life in the sun.

Modern cottage

Maybe not my usual preference of style but definitely a perfect place & location, for a

Christmas gathering with family & friends. One thing missing though – loads of snow!
