Around The Cottage Garden Nursery today...

Despite the weather being super chilly all of a sudden and the skies looking like they are about to open the Cottage Garden Nursery at East Brisbane was looking as cheerful as ever. Here are some shots of some of my favourite things in Shop 17 at the moment and around the nursery. Note the beautiful cushions are just a couple of some Bev Christenson has had made from some wonderful vintage fabric she purchased from theoldboathouse not so long ago....don't they look wonderful...I love the trims and they are feather filled. Bev along with her husband John have a space in the nursery too where they specialize in French inspired antiques.
