Autumn – turn over a new leaf?

AUTUMN

Don’t you just love this time of year – the colours, the fallen leaves, putting the garden to bed (that usually takes me all winter!). Surely it’s the best season of the year although by the time spring comes around I will probably say the same having endured long cold days unable to get out. Well there’s no pleasing a gardener is there – it’s either too wet, too hot, too cold, too windy but that really is the joy and challenge of it all – the working with nature, not against it, to get the best from your garden.

Now the days are getting shorter, the leaves are tumbling but the colours in the garden are still glorious.   It’s time to get out whenever you can – rake up the leaves, tidy the greenhouse or go for a walk in the countryside.

If like me you are having a sort out and popping into the garden whenever the weather or timing is right I suggest you try these fabulous garden shoes in a fun Leaf design – perfect for Autumn mornings – just make sure your feet don’t disappear amongst the leaves.

To jazz up a jumper how about our brand NEW Leaf jewellery – these are REAL gold plated leaves – choose from Oak, Aspen, Fern or we even have an acorn. They are really lightweight and add a touch of sparkle to your darker winter clothes.

Maybe your gardening gloves are a bit tatty after working outside all year – treat yourself to a new pair – we have loads to choose from. Or invest in a pair of Gold Leaf Gardening Gloves – described as probably the BEST leather gardening gloves around. The leather is soft and supple – so good in fact the gloves are extremely popular with the gardeners at Buckingham Palace! Maybe put them on your Christmas wish list.

One last thing before I leave you (excuse the pun) – apologies for no blog during September – it was an extra busy time as the lovely Horse Diva herself got married and an amazing day was had by all. We wish Katie & Simon every happiness.

Plus I’m pleased to say that the love of colour is hereditary as you can see by the glorious colours of her wedding flowers.

Now my thoughts must turn to Christmas!!!
