love thursday : hearts

I have hearts everywhere. Perhaps it’s a bit twee, actually, perhaps it’s extremely twee (for American readers, ‘twee’ is excessively or affectedly quaint, pretty or sentimental the origin is British, representing a child’s pronunciation of SWEET. The latest heart is in a metal trivet bought today in a local brocante (on the bric-a-brac side of antique) as a present for a loved one.


Other metal hearts are found in a metal garden arch with a seat either side. Apparently from an old hotel near Cannes that had a walk way made from many of them (probably just sales hype). Bought in Surrey, England and then brought back here a few years ago.


The other is a small wire basket filled with treasures from the sea.
