Peacock Feathers - A Color Story

As many of you know, I’m taking the e-course, Blogging Your Way and today’s assignment was to create a Color Story. I really enjoyed this project. It all started with the peacock feathers which my son, daughter and I collect when we go to Leo Carrillo park in Carlsbad, CA where the peacocks roam free. This place has so many fond memories for me. I then built on this with the vintage books, thread etc. from my Great Aunt Elsie who was such an amazing woman. The bookcase was something I found at a thrift store which I took home and stripped and left raw (Kay Lani, my neighbor was such a lifesaver. She gave me some tips/tricks and tools, thank you :) ). I could only select one photo to submit to the Flickr group. I selected the first photo. What do you guys think? Which is your favorite photo?

    These are beautiful vignettes, very evocative. I especially liked hearing the back story behind the items. I always wonder why people choose to display what they have out, especially in well-styled homes.

    Just stopping in from BYW as well, your color story came out so lovely. I enjoyed hearing about the items you included and the peacock feathers are so pretty. I live in North County San Diego as well, what a small world:)
