bringing in the new year

two very modern gypsies set of seeking adventures on the far south coast

up before the birds, the farm welcomed us with perfect waves and sweet sweet pineapple 

  not to mention the vagabond and pirate we picked up along the way

 after small town explorations involving bakeries, naps in parks and bric a brac stores we settled in a grove full of wild wild trees, surrounded by a freshwater lake and the salty salty sea.

 inspired by the flower drum, we set to work, gathering what we could, to make wreaths for the ones we love

sister beattie

who, might I add, is clothes designer extraordinaire 

 and me

Beattie picked up some enamel along the way (I tried to stop her, but she promised it'd be the last time...it wasn't)

 street side veggies with honesty boxes 

 amazing waves and hot hot days

 a tropical pash or two :)

 much wandering

 VERY impressive fires in mysterious bays

 warm cups of tea (note the enamel cups and teapot...problem)

 explosions of joy

 and giggles galore

we stepped into the new year with grace in our hearts and flowers in our hair

I hope you did too.
