It's the time of year when this woman's fancy turns to making home cosy again, after the doors-open policy of the fabulous summer we've had. The weather warnings for this weekend have prompted a flurry of activity - digging out cushions, throws and filling the log basket for the first fire, preparing for Autumn. Note I said Autumn, no W word here, yet.
On my travels this summer I found a book published in 1896 that I hope I will have time to read it before it gets bought from my Etsy shop, it has the fabulous title of Fireside Sketches From Swedish Life - by Mrs Woods Baker, her name sounds so appropriate for a writer of stories about life in rural Sweden.
So in celebration of the weather turning, and my hankering for a cosy cabin in the woods, I've found some images that the book title conjured up for me. I hope you enjoy.
