A silver teacup and some bottles

For a while now I have been on the hunt for a nice tea set. I think I have outgrown the flowery cups and pots that I acquired for myself years ago when I was still deeply inspired by shabby chic. Because I am older, perhaps, I now prefer classic lines and clean and solid colors over daisies and Peter Rabbit illustrations. My plan was to get a simple white china bone set but when I found this shiny silver cup and saucer pair in Starbucks of all places last night, I knew I had to have it. Last night when I finally retrieved it from its bag and put it on my desk, I swear my room lit up.  Next time, I will get it in gold.

Yesterday, too, in my desire for simplicity and minimalism, I reorganized my pens and paint brushes into bottles and glasses and their clarity made my desk look wonderfully immaculate. 

I hope to soon paint my room white. As with almost everything else from my past, I have outgrown its pale pink.

Work in progress

I am ever so slowly filling this paper up with flowers. It is tedious but I find that the unhurriedness of it all soothes me.

My Tumblr

It took me quite a while to figure out how it works, but I have finally set up a Tumblr account. Bravo, Clarise! I have always admired its pretty and sleek layouts, and so decided to give it a try.

There goes two hours of my life. :)
