A home with character

Tuesday, February 9, 2010








A beautifully inspiring home, full of some of my favourite types of personal touches- tins, pretty jars and canisters, white washed furniture, tea cups, books and lots of framed pictures. I could see myself living in a home like this!


Check out the rest of the pictures at Cotton Blues flickr.

In other news I am in the process of cleaning up my blog sponsors. Please email me at amanda.ellen.thomas@gmail.com if you are interested in advertising on Here Comes the Sun and I will give you more information. Thanks :)
