ROSES AND DAYDREAMS





























I found this beautiful magazine last week and I am still perusing it. Such beautiful pictures. It is the British version of COUNTRY LIVING. The magazine is large and likewise the photos are grand. The pages are so thick, I kept looking to see if I had turned two pages at once. I love that old papered chest in the bottom pic as well as everything else in the pics. There are many more beautiful articles too. I just had to share this one with you.

Donna, I was first introduced to this little gem when I was "home" a few years back. Isn't it just glorious ?
The pages are thick and very shiny, the pictures would be a beautiful collage, or framed.
It's nice to see the differences, isn't it, I also subsribe to English Homes and Gardens, it's a feast for the eyes.
Thanks for sharing these lovely pictures with us, they made me smile :)

I have a copy that is at least two years old and it is so tattered from my looking at it over and over. But it is so expensive! Love all the red.

I LOVE this magazine! My eldest daughter lived in the UK and introduced me to this gem. Thanks for the photos...I haven't seen a copy in a while and truly enjoyed this.
