Colour: Brown














Hi everyone

Welcome back to Evi's blog


Lets go through the photo's this week and see what we have ..


First up we have some yummy Austrian delights. Beautiful heart shaped bickies, with a thick choc coating. Evi makes these bickies at Xmas time, along with all sorts of other goodies. She's brilliant in the kitchen, and really excels at making Austrian sweets.

Next we have a old cane chair, which I happened to scrounge from the local tip. It's been used for all sorts of things, from kids play thing to garden utensil.

Looks like some shrivelled flower heads. I wouldn't hazard a guess as to what type of flowers these are, but I know they were growing along side the veggie patch.

These are some yummy ginger bickies, that Evi has been making for years. Everybody at our place loves them, and they don't tend to last long.

We have some friends who live about 10mins out of Sheffield here, on a property of 85 acres. This photo is of a pair of old "Jotul" heaters, that are ready for restoration or recycling. 

Last we have a cute little mushroom trying to poke it's head out of the snow. Not to sure where this photo was taken. Somewhere in Tassie though, on one of our winter time snow adventures.




Brown can mix into many surroundings. It is a mixture of red, blue and yellow and has many shades and tones - each producing a different effect. 

Brown can be a stabilizing color. The red in brown gives it practical energy while the yellow and blue add mental focus energies. Too much brown can make a dull effect. Brown gives a feeling of solidity, and allows one to stay in the background, unnoticed.

Some shades of brown create a warm, comfortable feeling of wholesomeness, naturalness and dependability.

 Hope you've enjoyed the post this week ..

Love to all

Stuy ..
