thankyou

i was so touched today, i got this beautiful hand made thankyou card, hand delivered by the cutest little girl Eva....so now i know what it is like to be on the receiving end of something hand made..it is so thoughtful when someone especially as young as Josh and Eva go to the effort... i,ll be keeping their contact numbers i may need them to assist me in a few years time...thank you to their yummy mummy Faye..x
i always make an effort to go to local car boot sale, some people think im crazy but i love it and i always manage to pick up somethings... here are some of my finds..
a lovely warren kimble print for £2... found a spot for it on my fireplace beam..


and then two months later i got these warren kimble prints.. for £10... how lucky was i..they are in the sitting room along with the other one..

and then i found these old weighing scales.. paid £3 for them, they are in my kitchen along with some other old kitche utensils...

car boot

i love going to the car boot sale on a sunday morning and i always manage to find some wee bargain
this basket is great for storing all my country living and country homes magazines..

and i got these colourful wellies, they are way too small for my feet but just watch were you will see them next..

and these teeney weeney ones were too cute to leave behind, and i will use them along with the others in my new project...

and look how good they are together...

and i wont go too far on this bike but i have also an idea for how i am going to use it... pictures to follow...


and this bag made of tin will also look good in my shop window...

so i had a very good day at the car book, always worth a visit....
