Something Blue

 This week the theme is 'Something Blue'.

I just love any excuse to photograph my Victorian collection of dead butterflies!

Beautiful

 This week the theme is Beautiful.

I was thrilled to find this beautiful vintage book recently.  

It's called 'A Butterfly Chase' and the detail in it really is beautiful. 

 I  photographed the gold embossed cover and the inside front page with some butterflies from my Victorian collection of dead things!

Colours of 2016 - Cobalt Part 2

I wanted to continue with this beautiful colour of Cobalt blue for July  -

a butterfly from my Victorian collection and antique china.

Colours of 2015 - Aqua

Aqua is the colour for July.

 I thought the Pyracanthus worked well with the beautiful old teacup.  I love the tiny creepy crawlies painted on it too!
