Diamonds and flowers. Is there a better combination. We had the honour once again of dressing the windows of @jamesporterandsondiamonds Never short of sparkle the windows required a little hint of autumn as the leaves begin to turn in the city.

Elevate your dining experience with local produce and plant babies with a long life ahead. Back in April at A moda Portuguesa brilliantly concieved and hosted by @bosqueconcepts with teaching and guidance by @fridakim_london and @wagnerjk we created a tablescape from dried beans, different colours and sizes, from the local farmers market, all of which were donated to worthy recipients after the event. Vegetable plug plants were used to make stacking sculptures, very much living things at the beginning of their lives, in contrast to the beans, a harvested product, at the end of the cycle⌠or the absolute beginning, depending on how you look at things. The plug plants were all repurposed and planted in the kitchen garden at @palaciodogrilo and will ultimately supply their kitchen. It was a pleasure to sit amidst our work to enjoy a delicious lunch and the wonderful company of new friends in the Lisbon sunshine. Next stop, PortoâŚ

âAnyone can get married on a boring old lawnâ, said Shanna as she and Josh selected the spot for their chuppah in the woodland under an ancient and incredibly beautiful sequoia in the grounds of @gilmertonhouse

The Portuguese Way - Day three. An unused part of the garden at Palacio do Grilo was liberated of its weeds and tall grasses to create a textural journey through this formerly secreted and forlorn space with plants of all shapes and sizes. We said our farewells here as a group and sheâd happy tears before returning in the evening with guests to celebrate our achievements. The generosity and kindness of @bosqueconcepts @wagnerjk and @fridakim_london will remain in our hearts for a very long time. đĽ @nativebirds

Big impact from a little imagination. Combining floral installations with ancient artefacts or electrical fixtures must be undertaken with great care. Weâve got this!

Where does Debussyâs Clair de lune transport you to. For us itâs the roof top of Cassa Batlo, Barcelona. Michael couldnât understand why I wanted to spend time indoors on a sunny day, especially as Iâd been in the Gaudi designed space before but I couldnât wait to show him the beautiful space, a surprise round every corner, the attention to detail even in the most utilitarian parts of the building. Then, when we stepped onto the roof, amongst the decorated chimney pots there was a string quartet, playing this in preparation for an evening recital. There would have been two more starry eyed audience members if the heavens hadnât opened and the concert cancelled.

To plant a seed and watch it grow into something beautiful, a self contained world, a moment in time. Romance captured, frame after frame, each one more captivating than the last.

All art is a work in progress. Itâs helpful to see the piece weâre working on as an experiment. One in which we canât predict the outcome. Whatever the result, we will receive useful information that will benefit the next experiment. If you start from the position that there is no right or wrong, no good or bad, and creativity is just free play with no rules, itâs easier to submerge yourself joyfully in the process of making things. Weâre not playing to win, weâre playing to play. And ultimately, playing is fun. Perfectionism gets in the way of fun. A more skillful goal might be to find comfort in the process. To make and put out successive works with ease.
Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being

I managed to catch one of our floofy wreaths before it headed off to its new home yesterday. More of the same today.

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. itâs yours.
Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
A week amongst the trees and on the road allows for plenty of reflection and looking to the future, contemplating how the next bit will play out. Life never stands still. The trees know.
