I have had a very busy day. You know how one job leads to another and another - well, it all started with wanting to give the bathroom a really good clean (bottoming as my grandmother used to call it!). Then I decided that I didn't like the stencils I had painted a while ago anymore so I painted over them and while I was painting over them thought I may as well paint all the walls. While I waited for that to dry to apply a second coat then I thought I might as well paint the kitchen as it is also white and the paint tin was already open. And then, of course, all the kitchenalia and ornaments that had to be moved required washing etc. etc. I think I felt quilty as I have had two days of shopping this week and not for the website but for ME! These are some of my recent purchases. I fell in love with this mirror and had to have it.

I bought this sack trolley on ebay. Apart from being quite useful in the garden it is old and woodwormy and I like it!

This Victorian iron cradle is a project. I need to remove the rust and paint it. I don't want to replace the 'twine' or the canvas base as I still want it to look old but it does need some renovation as you can see.

I hope you all have a great weekend and that the weather is kinder to us than last week so that we can do some car booting. I'm now off to polish my halo and admire my super clean bathroom and kitchen.
