Popsicle Colors

I am happy to share that I am a Brand Ambassador for Graham & Brown and  I join 49 other bloggers worldwide who will accept a monthly challenge in the ‘Year in Design 2015’. The Challenge this month is- Where can you see Popsicle colors in your past, present and future?  Summer time is filled with cold ice cream treats and Popsicles so this Popsicle color challenge is perfect for this time of year.

As a young girl my thoughts often drifted to pretty pink things and my Mothers beautiful pastel pink dress always  topped the list. This dress is one of my most cherished treasures. She wore it when she married my Father on a sunny June day in London. She looked like a glamorous film star in the 60’s ( this dress has a 22 inch waist!). It is so delicate I was hesitant to iron it. The bodice is filled with beautiful bits of lace, isn’t it lovely.

One of my favorite summer Popsicle flavors has always been lemon ice.  I have fond memories of our time living  in France and the the pale yellow curtains in our kitchen window.

Light and airy they would dance on the breeze and catch  the glow of the morning sun.

On my sixteenth birthday my Mother and  I painted my bedroom a pretty shade of lavender.

Then we covered one wall with beautiful wallpaper filled with purple flowers. Very similar to this lovely Reed Pink from Graham & Brown.

Now I ‘m loving the fresh strawberries from our garden with my breakfast and as the temperature rises I see plenty of strawberry Popsicle’s in my future too. You can find my recipe HERE

These lovely fuchsia colored peonies from our garden are a wonderful Popsicle color.  I was so grateful I was able to take some photos before the recent hail storm  damaged all of them.
