Southwold Lighthouse

I had a brilliant day out in Southwold, it's a lovely part of the Suffolk coastline especially when the weather has been as brilliant as today. Southwold has everything a seaside town needs, rows of beach huts a lovely Pier and golden sands.

It also has a wonderful Lighthouse.

 I've been busy making and painting more of my Hanging Hearts, I love painting the waves and I think the Lighthouse fits the theme really well.

 These 3 Hearts are currently in a lovely shop called Cavern 4 in Bury St Edmunds.

After all that sea and sand I'm off to put my feet up and have a nice cuppa while I pop over to Handmade Harbour and check out who is taking part in Wendy's Linky Party.

Have a great week and enjoy the sunshine

    We love Southwold (and please don't laugh) but we actually stay there. Your light houses on your hearts are perfect for lazy summer days and the reminiscing of. Have a great week. xx

    Southwold looks like a traditional English seaside resort! The lighthouse hearts would make a good holiday keepsake too.

    As always, Jan, your work is so lovely. Gorgeous use of colours and for the last few days the skies have really been that beautiful blue. Hope you have a good week.

    We have had a few holidays along that bit of coast. One we staying in Southwold, and also Walberswick just south. And once further south near Orford. It is one of my favourite bits of England.

    Lovely painted hearts, glad the real sea wasn't so rough!

    Don't think I've been to Southwold before but it looks beautiful in your photos. Love your new hearts, although it looks like those beach huts are about to washed away by those waves! :-D

    These are gorgeous pictures and you set them off with your hearts beautifully. Want to just pop down there and put my hot feet in that water and feel the sand in my toes again!
