A wall of pictures in Warwick CastleHello,
This week we visited Warwick Castle as we had some vouchers to use up.
Although it's very near to us it's a while since we last visited.
It has become more commercialized, in my opinion and lost a little of the charm it once had.
Despite that, it is a spectacular English Castle, full of the most beautiful paintings and furniture.
If you have the stamina to climb the towers four hundred plus stairs, you will be rewarded by the amazing views of Warwick and the surrounding countryside.
You will find more information here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warwick_Castle
I have a few more brooches to share with you, one added recently to etsy.
My store will be closed soon as we will be away on our holiday, hopefully I will have some time to sketch then!
Many thanks for your recent comments, they are very much appreciated.
Bye for now. M x

I love looking round castles and stately homes...Warwick Castle looks very impressive.I'd love to have a closer look sometime. Hope you have a great holiday!
I don't know Warwickshire but it looks beautiful. Have a good holiday and come back with recharged batteries.
Lovely photos, I have a very similar one to that one you've shown of the castle from the side with the water running next to it! Hope you have a great holiday x
Love the trees. Wonderful castle. Have a great holiday.
I really must go, I drive past the sign for histowic warwick regularly...shame-on-me!
Those latest pieces are just gorgeous missus x:)
Gorgeous stitching! Hope you are ok, love alex xx
I love your embroidered trees!
The view of the Warwickshire countryside looks like the sort of place I'd love to explore.
I love your trees - they are magical. Great photos and I can see where your inspiration comes from. I haven't been to Warwick for many years and once had a spooky moment in the castle torture chamber - it was quite unnerving and I'm not usually susceptible. It's a magnificent building. Those Edwardian ladies are so elegant and make me feel a proper scruff! They weren't there when I visited. Hope you have a lovely holiday.
have a lovely holiday!
Firstly, absolutely gorgeous brooches! Lovely colours!
I went to Warwick Castle a few years ago and I agree with you about the commercialism but would still recommend it to anyone who hasn't been, it is a very pretty castle
Hope you have a wonderful holiday M
Enjoy your sketching and painting
