The butterflies have more or less neglected the flowers in my cottage garden this year, although I've planted some plants and flowers, like the buddleja davidii and sedum autumn joy and phlox etc. just for them (yes okay and because I like them too I admit lol) . Now they are suddenly coming :D they love to drink from my sweet grapes that I have initially left on the vine for the birds to pick and eat. Click on the photos to see the bigger version if you like!
The "Inachis io" (we call it "Tagpfauenauge") is resting on the warm house wall, isn't it perfect?
If you look closer you can see how the "Vanessa atalanta" (we call it "Admiral") is sipping out of the grape like with a straw!
The color of the pansies and of the sedum in the picture below is my fave autumn color:
Seeing how much I love roses and garden bouquets I also had to take a picture of this bouquet in the photo below. It was a present for my mum, all flowers, berries and herbs were picked by our friend in her cottage garden:

I also wanted to share with you my glass vase of "House Doctor" in the next photo. I'm totally in love with the things they design and so happy that they sell their gorgeous goodies in my fave shop "ROSENROT" here in Bremen. I also bought some of House Doctor's gift wrapping paper and gave my mum a few hints about what I would love to get for Christmas and my next b-day he he
Lastly I like to show you the collage below that I have made for a swap with my German friend Nicole of www.smalltreasures.blogspot.com just so that you can see that I'm also creative from time to time ;-)
