Ode to the Sun

Spring is here right? Even though it doesn't quite feel like it in some places...

So this week I've put together some eye popping colour to serenade in the Spring and the forthcoming warmer months...

Sun and heat always make me think of warmer climates, sand so hot you can't walk barefoot on it, cracked dry earth, cherry red tomatoes glistening on their stalks in the noon day sun, azure seas and the cool green leaves of the palm trees - lots of colour and lots of pattern.

Warmer climates tend to use a lot more colour in everything, from furniture design to crockery and cutlery.

So imagine you are in a warmer climate, can you feel the warmth of the sun on your face?

You're sitting outside relaxing by a glistening pool...

and you've set the table ready for an alfresco lunch or an early supper as the sun slowly sets...

The colours are vibrant and the pattern is energetic...

the birds, frogs and insects have all come out to play

So, before you go pale, breathe in a little colour, add a little spice...

Enjoy the week
