And saw a pheasant in the garden yesterday - don't usually see them near here -
***************************
Got some fun things yesterday - a great tin - like a thick book, with some glasses on top! -
(Can't get it to load the right way!)
And a pretty plate and cake server -
and a cake cutter and server (or, indeed "kut'n'serv") -
(wrong way again, sorry!)
********************
Been making lots of heart-shaped (aaarrrggghh, don't mention hearts!!) lavender bags recently - for Valentine's Day? - market on Sunday in Ludlow (though the forecast is for heavy rain :( )
*******************
Been tiling the kitchen splashback this morning - makes your hands horribly dry :( - (tiles not grouted yet..) -
Off for a cup of tea now -
And then to see Ruby later :) -
Tiling ... I'm impressed! I need to do some around this place. Is it hard? Lx

What a colourful little poppet is Ruby! So lovely to see such a littley dressed in bright, cheerful colours. I tried this with my granddaughter, only to find that her mother preferred pastels and 'labels' and my offerings were shoved in the bottom of a cupboard. The start of a downhill slide in the relationship. I could just never get it RIGHT, you know? So I gave up trying.
ReplyDeleteimpressed! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous things! Lovely blog :)
Love the hearts you have made, I have been making them as well. I like to sit in the evening and finish them off by hand. I love your Gothic style garden gate.

ReplyDeleteYou have been so busy!!! I really like your garden gate, and how lucky to see a pheasant! So you have heart fatigue?! The linen and lace ones are my favourite. Little Ruby is so cute in her stripy outfit.x

ReplyDeleteMore great finds. I love Ruby's outfit especially the hat. I like the hearts with the cotton lace too. Hope the weather is kind to you.

ReplyDeleteHi there. You've just won a prize on my Giveaway!! You lucky thing you! Plse have a look on my blog and email me. xx
ReplyDeleteOh, the plate sure is pretty (and it is blue and white!) And a pheasant! We do rarely see them here, and never in the winter. How I long for spring and summer... for the birdsong and the rare sighting of pheasants.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visits and lovely comments in my blog. They are so so appreciated!
Love the colour of those tiles.... and as for Ruby.......... isn't she just a poppet?!?
