Nice To See The Sunshine .. It Makes A Girl Happy!

Hello there....
what a lovely day we are having here .. 
the sun is shining and the birds are singing...
how lucky we are..


The sky is as blue as blue and we've been watching the birds way up high .. 
gliding around just enjoying the day..


The buds on the lilac bush are growing daily .. won't be long before they burst forth with all their wonderful scent... 
and early too I should think.


The Honesty is already 'doing its thing' .. what a wonderful colour .. so very pretty.


Hubby P ... almost as bright and dazzling in his ultra orange boiler suit ... although it looks like he needs a good ol'wash.
He too is doing 'his thing' in the garden .. this sunshiny weather is great for painting jobs.

Hubby P spotted some of these .. well similar to this sort of thing .. in one of those Shabby Chic shops...



So I had a bit of a go .. its all a pretty montage of vintage papers and a few vintage buttons.


Something a little different .... cant decide whether I like them or not ..

Now these are something I do like .... I have lots of them .. they are useful and pretty .. and 'fit for purpose' ... they hold the clothes in place well .. the fabric helps grip the clothes.


I cover the wooden hangers with vintage retro fabric .. often bark cloth ... they are popular and sell well .. I have one lady who likes to collect them.. she has one of each fabric I use ..
I think they are just a little bit of prettiness for a girl to use daily..

Its even a small enough project to do sat in the garden admiring the flowers and watching the antics of the birds.

 
So that's us this last few days .. just pootling along..


I will leave you with a pretty pic of the Bleeding Heart .. this is one of the little plants I chose to sit atop the resting place of our dear little Fly .. its flowering away and looking pretty ...
We think of our little dogs .. Fly and Uncas a lot .. its nice we have good strong memories of them ..

'God gave us Memories 
that we might have
Roses in December...'


Bye for now ....x
