Nature in the Home - Autumn/Winter week 6...

Week 6!  Wowzers time flies eh?
This week I visited a beautiful new shop in the seaside town of Clevedon.  Not far from Bristol.  The shop 19 Alexandra Road is a beautiful mix of vintage and handmade.  Carefully curated by the sisters Becky and Victoria Saunders.  I could have bought lots and lots of beautiful things there.  I came away with this gorgeous old apothecary bottle and the vintage bauble.

So for this weeks Nature in the Home my entry includes my new finds (I know it is a bit early for the bauble, but I love it), in the bottle are sprigs of winter flowering Viburnum.  The smell is divine.  So nice to have these delicate pink blooms in the house, makes a change from oranges, reds and yellows of Autumn.

Edit:  I've had a an idea!  How about we make a collective weekly contribution on the run up to Christmas - all making the similar thing.  There are 4 weeks (including Christmas Day) of Nature in the Home to come, so 4 weeks of making:

Week 1 - A table centre piece (a jar of greenery, a simple sprig?)
Week 2 - Garlands, something for the wall.
Week 3 - Wreath (indoors or Outdoors)
Week 4 - The Tree!

You have full artistic license on these rough themes, so it is up to you - but I thought it could be good fun, no?  As the fourth week lies on Christmas Day, I think I shall do it a couple of days early.  So the 23rd December.

Don't forget to add your entry to our group pinboard.  If you'd like to join in with the pinning please leave a comment with your Pinterest name, where I can find you.

Last week was a bumper week - a bounty of nature and some super cute ideas too!  Thank you.  How did you do this week?

See you next week!
