Hello there! I got a little busy yesterday and managed a shopping trip, a craft project and a recipe write up all before P even got home from work. It was so lovely to be at home doing the things I love, one after the other.
Hello there! I hope you all had a good weekend. It was so lovely yesterday that I decided to (finally) work on this makeover project in the garden. It's one that I've had in the queue for months, and it kept getting delayed because I really couldn't make my mind up about it.I bought this gorgeous baroque-style frame and print at a charity shop in spring, and was adamant that I was going to paint the moulding.
Hello there!
I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. P was away for pretty much all of it so I had two days to fill with whatever I wanted... oh the pottering freedom!
I did some bedding plant shopping and planting up with Mummy Badger, and we put in some pastel coloured petunias and some dahlias too. I also stole this cutting from her snowball plant when I was at hers that morning... I just couldn't resist. It's so pretty in all it's pom-pom beauty!
Back to work after a lovely long weekend... I don't know about you but I'm already awaiting the next one!
For you today, I've got a wee makeover project. P and I have had some old, tired and very scruffy rattan garden chairs for rather a while, and it's safe to say, they're past it. We'd resorted to shoving them up the end of the patio in a heap as we didn't quite want to get rid of the only garden seating we had at the time. After a conversation about not wanting to dump them, my Aunt made a suggestion and suddenly I could see some potential in the tatty old rattans. So, in the spirit of upcycling, I decided to give them a makeover to brighten them, and perhaps our whole garden up.
