"Summer afternoon; to me they have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language," - Henry James And that's exactly how I have been feeling this week. Summer is here and the sun is giving its glorious glow every evening. But on this particular evening, I picked some lavender for myself. I had so much fun taking these photos and was...
Tarnished brass, gold lockets, yellowy film photos, old books with fonts that were long forgotten, delicate lace and long evening gowns, beautiful pottery, millinery, and the decades of clothing. . .

So, believe me when I say opening my first box...
