Simple Delights
{A bouquet of roses in the prettiest shade of ballerina-slipper pink.}
{A quiet afternoon with a selection of interior design magazines and soft-baked cookies.}
This particular spread makes me want to work on growing my (tiny as of yet) blue and white porcelain collection. I feel a major urge to go antiquing.
{Proof that mother nature is the best artist there is.}
We noticed this incredible frost pattern on our window one late evening and had to capture it on film. Growing up in a cold climate I've seen quite a few impressive feather or fern-like frost patterns, but this one was so unique that it left us in awe and disbelief.
{Family heirlooms.}
Knowing how sentimental a person I am, and how much I long for anything that reminds me of my home in Lithuania, my mother created a very special gift for me. She gathered a few little treasures from the past (silver spoons and a ring from her childhood, her favorite pair of earrings, a few Lithuanian coins that were recently replaced by euros) and framed them in a shadowbox. It is so comforting and heartwarming to have a little piece of my native country and family history in my home.
The little painting below is another item I brought back from home that holds a lot of meaning. It is one of my mother's old paintings inspired by the best-known Lithuanian fairy tale Egle the Queen of Serpents. I will cherish these items forever and hopefully pass them on to my children some day.
