The prettiest fence in all the land...

[impulsereader]

northernwalker and I were jointly swooning over our unreasonable love of wrought iron recently, and I happened to mention that a house on my street has a pretty, pretty red wrought iron fence, and she requested pictures. I just managed to remember on my way home from a walk on Sunday and so left my shopping unattended for a few moments to take some. I then realized that the house right next to it has a pretty, pretty black wrought iron fence as well.

Also - woo to the hoo! - I finally got the second mood theme to upload properly! I've no idea what I was doing wrong, though I think I had a double // when I wanted a single, but that really doesn't explain why some were working but not others, as all the line items were identical. But anyway... as a result, I am now Ecstatic - see above.

You'd like Melbourne. We have some lovely wrought iron (often referred to as iron lace) from the Victorian era. :)

Oh, gosh! And I've just been remarking that I'm feeling in need of a vacation...

Iron lace - what a lovely image.

IT really is. Every now and then I see a place where the original owner had some Australiana incorporated into the design. There are some pics and info here: http://suedennisartquilts.blogspot.com.au/2010/01/iron-lace.html

If you have a holiday down here, we will go on walks and sticky beak at all the iron lace, I promise. :)
