spring cleaning




A trip to Wolverhampton retail park the other day found me not spending my money in Hobbycraft (I know!) but Laura Ashley. Love their stuff anyway, but there was a sale! I bought 2 strings of pretty rose and cram bunting and cushions to match all at half price. My conservatory was just too plain and this has made a big difference I think. Did you see the home programme with Kirsty Alsop on channel 4 the other day? Very inspiring- so I blame her for my latest spending spree! I'm not usually a lover of her programmes, but this one is very different. You can watch it on channel 4 catch up. I have all the family coming tomorrow for a barbie after church, so the bunting makes it feel like an event:) Enjoy the good weather.

The little things,,,,,,,,,,,

Don't look at any comments on my recent posts. When you click to read they seem to try to download a virus checker - or a virus! Hope it's not too late :) I am looking forward to the crop on 12th- it would be great to see lots there. I am working on the altered book, and loving the process, so that will be available to do at the crop. It's been busy here, with two weddings to prepare for, plus helping Becky and Kev with their house hunting, and visiting my sister who is in hospital a the mo.... but life is good. As I get older I am realizing more and more how important it is to enjoy the little things in life - no matter what bad stuff is happening. I take great pleasure in scrapping, baking, seeing the buds forming on the trees, waking up and deciding what I will do with my day. How wonderful! I think I am feeling the joys of spring.
