My favourite things . . .

 

 

A few of the things in life that make my heart go pitty pat. Maybe they will do the same thing for yours. ♥♥♥    This week I am talking about things that are bee related.  I love anything to do with bees! 

 

 

I am totally in love with this beautiful yarn bowl by Queen Bee Pottery on Instagram.  I totally love the colours. 

 

I love this bee skip biscuit box.  Look at that little bee closing clasp.  It said biscuit box, but I am not sure.  It also looks like an amulet that you could hang around your neck. It would all depend on the size. No matter I love it anyways.  

  

Knitted Bee socks.  Oh, I do wish I was a better knitter.  I am right in love with these. No source anyways. 

 

I am deeply in love with these Bee Mittens, by Drunk Girl Designs on Ravelry.  I can't knit on four needles, but if I could I would be whipping these up  pronto  I just adore them.   

 

No source, but bee sneakers.  They look as if they were stamped which would be pretty easy to do, but maybe not.   Cute! 

  

Beeswax candles.  Again no source, but I bet them smell lovely when they are burning  . . . 

 

Embroidered Bee bag, again no source.  I love, Love, LOVE this.  But then again would have no occasion to use it, so I can just love from afar. 

  

Little china butter dish with gold trim and a beautiful bee and herb pattern.  Love, love.  

 

Bee and bee-skip cookie cutters.  Cute! 

  

Honey glazed Bee Hive cake.  From Martha Stewart.  Love the little marzipan bees and the cake shape.  I am betting its really delicious as well. 

  

 

A Bumble Bee song.  Its really nice too.  I found a copy of it on YouTube sung by Doris Day.  Very pleasant. You can listen to it here.  It will make you smile!  I love it!  

 

Bumble Bee altered Tin.  No source again.  

  

The "Bee Book" by Ingrid Dijykers.  Love this. Now I want to make one. 

 

This is colossal. New paper and textile wildlife sculptures by Kate Kato.  I strongly suspect she might be the creator of the box above also. Beautiful work. 

 

A book by Bee Wilson about honeybees and us. On my bucket list. 

  

Bumble Bee stained glass . . .  love, love, love, love, love . . .  sigh  . . .  

 

Bumble Bee Lamp Shade.  I am totally in love with this.  Its just gorgeous. 

  

Book cover  . . .  embroidery and cutouts. Han Made Bookbinding.  Sweet. A LOT of work went into this.

 

Bumble Bee Mary Jane Flats.  LOVE!  These would go great with my support socks, NOT, lol

Bumble Bee collar pin.  I can't look at the site because I am in Europe but it is ModCloth. 

 

Specks of Glitter and Gold, what a positively breathtakingly beautiful plate  . . . 

  

Bee Skip Christmas Ornament.  Love. Love. Love.

 

I think this is one of the most beautiful Honey Pots.  All glass, even the spoon  . . . 

  

Golden bee head band.  You would feel like a Queen bee . . . 

 

Bumble Bee fairy light  . . .  I love their fat little bodies! 

  

Bee and flower Faberge Egg . . . 

 

Bee flocked sheers  . . .  lovely . . . 

  

Anthropology.  Curtain rods  . . . 

 

1985 postal stamp. Water colour by Gordon Beningfield. 

And there you have it, some of my favourite bee themed things . . .

Did you see the Hunters moon last night?  It was far too overcast here to see it. 

 

In the English Kitchen today  . . .  Angel Biscuits.  An oldie but a goodie.  Baked these yesterday and they were really enjoyed.  So light and flaky.

Have a great Thursday.  Don't forget!

PS - I had a great night's sleep last night. I only woke up a couple of times and managed to fall right back to sleep. I was exhausted. So that was great!
