'And if one green bottle.....'

Found a box of bottles today - just been sorting them / washing them, etc. I particularly like the blue ones -

 
Lucky to find lots of cloths too - such pretty embroidery -
 





 


Very cold here today, after yesterday's Spring-like weather. But some brave souls showing in the garden -



These Tete a tete daffodils are peeping through - they were planted after we'd used them as table decorations at youngest daughter's wedding a couple of years ago -

 
 

The wedding was yellow / green themed -

 

 
 
Hope you're having a good week!

Nothing but blue skies..............

Lovely blue skies today (though very cold!) -



I usually go to Abergavenny (Y Fenni in Welsh) on a Wednesday - and always pass this little church at Llangua - v pretty -


Found some good things today - bit of a flowery theme..... A pretty tin jug with fabric roses, and a rosy half moon rug - (not long 'til Valentine's Day) -

 
 
The rug looked better after a surface wash -


Found a pretty china jug, too, though it is chipped (and it doesn't have the bowl!) -


A lovely embroidered bed cover caught my eye - though I had thought it was much older than it seems. The hand embroidery is beautiful, but the fabric seems fairly modern -


Pretty flowers, though -






And a useful little side table, painted -


Hope you're having a good week!
