Today the lovely Christina from Soul Aperture is hosting a 'simple things that make you happy day' today June the 10th, for no other reason than, well, just because... :) Here are my thoughts...
I had to reign myself in, as there as so many simple things which make me happy!
* things that are handmade, especially made with care and love
* fresh flowers, (especially in jam jars)
* books in any form but especially library books because they're free! (yippeee!)
* fresh bed linen and lie ins! (something so nice about a bed freshly made)
* home made granola, so tasty and just the thing to start the day
* string - because it's lovely to look at, (who doesn't love string?!)
* lovely, lovely light, (oh how I love the light!)
* the scent of washing drying outside
* seedheads - as much as I love the fresh flowers, there's something so beautiful about what comes next...
other things...*fairy lights*the magic of seedlings*fireworks*being brought tea in bed*nature in all forms*sunlight through leaves*the scent of oranges*daisy chains*eating outside*fresh bread*sunshine*blackbird song*taking photos*tattoos*wooden floors*art galleries*the seaside*plain paper journals...and the list goes on and on...what makes you happy?

beautiful list! There are so many small things in life that are so lovely.
You are I believe the third one that love the simple feeling of fresh sheets on the bed.. I wished I had said that too but next time.. I just rubbed my body all in and around the crisp sheets. Beautiful photos and beautiful list! Stopped by from Soul Aperture..
P.S. Love the name "Coco Sunday!"
when I started wrapping gifts on my own, I was so excited to wrap them with brown paper and string (possibly because I loved the "brown paper packages tied up with string .." song as well as the simple beauty
love this list so much - and the simple beauty of all the photos
I found my way to you via Christina. Hasn't this been lovely? I wanted to tell you how much I love your mosaic. And your list. So many times I said to myself, "Yes. Oh. That one, too. Yes!"
I love your happiness list, everything sounds wonderful. Beautiful pictures too.
Now that is my kind of list!! Love it. And once again... beautiful pictures to illustrate your point. Nicely done Jac!
