Whilst out treasure seeking on Sunday, for some lovely bits for the fair, I treated myself to this beautiful old copy of 'The Girl's Own Annual'. |
Not dated inside, but I would put it at just prior to the 1920's... |
There are some great articles of the time inside, but what drew me most to this old book were the dreamy floral colour plates dispersed throughout...which I thought you might like to see... |
Early Spring Violets |
Primroses from an English Lane |
Just Gathered from the Rose Walk |
A Bowl of Roses |
Lilac in a Ginger Jar |
Hope you like them as much as I do... I'll leave you with some photos of the auricular and miniature daffodils flowering on my doorstep just now... |
Enjoy the sunshine,
