blissful inspiration

good morning!  I am running a bit behind this morning because I have been setting up a little something for all of you.  More about that later—

One of the most magical things about this time of year is the pretty debris left behind by nature.  I personally love to go on autumn walks with my son and gather acorns, cones, seeds and other interesting bits.  Then we get home and spread out out loot and of course, I grab my camera and tada!  something pretty fantastic!

I absolutely love the collections gathered here and personally cannot get enough!  I have decided to start a little flickr group in honor of photos such as these.  My first group: bits and baubles from nature!  Please join and submit—I can’t wait to see what you come up with. xo mrs. french

    this is very inspirational! I love the combination of textures in all the photos. I sometimes have to be reminded that beauty is in the simple and uncomplicated…
