Musings on light and letter-writing...

Light-filled bedroom via Art et Decoration as seen on linen and lavender



















Loving the light in this bedroom and the downy white duvet  . . .so inviting.  I can see myself lingering with a favorite book in the morning or inspired to write a good old-fashioned letter here.
What a treasure the handwritten letter these days. 
Such a rarity in our modern age, it hardly matters how eloquently composed the feat itself makes poignant work of any prose!

That is why I love my fountain pens so much LeAnn - I don't write screeds with them, but they add pleasure to writing an address on an envelope or just making a list.

Tricia, I so agree. Life is so much better when we take a few moments to make little things like that special. Thanks for stopping by. Stay well. xo~L
