Good morning sweeties,
Every day, every single day, when the girls go to school and Hubby go to work, I begin my little walk through the house, looking around a smile on my face…
On the living room’s couch, there is always the same little mess, the kind of mess that I adore, the kind of mess I look at and my heart sings with joy…
the proof that we were all here yesterday evening, snuggled on the same couch, together enjoying family life … and this simple pic of my home’s mess makes my heart happy and my soul thankful 🙂
So, I do, every day, what all the mothers and the housewives around the world do, I pick up things from the floor (it seems I am picking all day long things from the floor), specially cushions and I try, as much as I can, to make home a less messy and a happier place to live in….Isn’t it our job ? 🙂
But today, with all the every day’s things I make usually, I have a small extra pleasure to share with you…my Christmas gift from me to me arrived two days ago 🙂 …(yes, the post in my country is soooooooo sloooooooooow…it takes ages to receive an online order…and sometimes you receive, sometimes you never 🙁
But this time, I received the lovely books I was so waiting for…and I so want to show them to you…
Can’t wait to open them, smell their pages and enjoyyyyyy them 🙂
Hope you have, in your life, every day a small extra pleasure to enjoy… it can be anything…a lovely book… a big hug…a kind word…or a ray of sunshine…
Big big kisses,
Sucrette
You have such a lovely home. Makes me smile to see all your bright & beautiful creations in your home. Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂
Love your post… I do try to enjoy a small pleasure a day…. Really adore your blog… have a blissed weekend. Going to a creative fair tomorrow, will post an overview on my blog later on next week. Hugs. x
Même si tes “blankets” sont en fouillis sur ton canapé, il s’en dégage quelque chose de vivant, de joyeux et de chaleureux ! Alors, oui il faut bien ranger un peu, mais voir la vie dans notre “home sweet home” fait parti de nos petits plaisirs quotidiens et j’avoue que j’aime bien voir trainer le doudou de ma fille (17 ans) sur son lit !
gros bisous

It is soooo important to enjoy lifes small pleasures! And it’s rather simple when you ‘mess’ is as beautiful as yours…..love it! I clean up my house with love too, it’s part of being a mother/wife/houskeeper. Enjoy your day!

J’aime bien le “fouillis” si coloré sur ton canapé; ça montre que c’est une maison vivante .
Ils ont l’air bien beaux, tes nouveaux livres. Tu nous en diras un peu plus ?
This is such a beautiful post and I love all the crochet blankets on the sofa. They are so colorful! I literally squealed with happiness upon seeing them 😀 I’m so glad I found your blog, Sucrette. You’re an inspiration!
Je confirme : je fais ceci et ( des tas d’autres petits ramassages )c’est bien la preuve que la maison est VIVANTE !!!

Firstly, lovely lovely sofa pictures!! Looks so cheerful and cosy 🙂 And secondly what a great looking selection of books, I love Design Sponge (I presume it’s the one that goes with the website?) and I’d be really interested to hear what you think of the other ones. I love books like that, really good bedside table books. Lovely.
you are very lucky my dear, i not have many time for my passions, for my beloved hobbies, i have one work like sales manager, one family whit 2 boys and husband a big home and 2 cats…:-((((((( it’s a dream for me to have ONE DAY only for me!!! 🙂

Thanks

Would love to know exactly where you are! Well, I guess I don’t mean EXACTLY! What city and country are you in that it would take so long to get a package?
Sheila
love the blankets thrown all over! My house looks the same!
Those books look awesome! You’ll have to share what you think of them one day..I’ve seen the Design Sponge one, but not the others, and I’m very curious! Thanks for your inspiration!
Sometimes I think when I am done making a cushion I should just throw it on the floor, because that is where it ends up at the end of the day : ) Your living room looks very cozy! Enjoy your new books, they look great!
Yes, every day is picking up, but what lovely thoughts accompany your housework! You are right, housework reminds us that we live with people we love, and we love them by trying to make a beautiful home. I have a long way to go on that score, but you inspire me with your happy pictures! Hope your week is lovely!
Hi Angie,
Everything looks so cozy and happily lived in.
I t brings a smile to my face.
Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us.
Have a wonderful weekend, many blessings.
Hi Angie! I enjoy cleaning up the mess in the morning too! It´s my favourite housework. :o) Love your pictures, all these beautiful blankets on your couch, so cosy and cheerful!
I wish you a wonderful weekend with lots of time to enjoy your new books!
Hugs and kisses! Barbina
Books are heaven to me! I absolutely am in love with crochet but since I was a very small girl, books have always been my passion. I could give up everything except that! Enjoy your reads!
