show your bits

Inspired by this retro look teatowel ,which was too cute to use so I framed it instead, the design is called My kitchen shelves...ToDryFor

Off came the cupboard doors, one roll of wallpaper, the pattern is called Cocktail from BandQ, some glue, a little bit of know how and alot of patience later........

My kitchen shelves! Cheerful and easy to find everything!

stolen afternoon

 I had an unexpected afternoon off work today and went to Greyabbey to the gorgeous vintage shop Vintage Homebird. The shop sells vintage and retro furniture and collectables - my dream shop! The lovely owner allowed me to take some photos to share and I couldn't come home empty handed so I bought this flowery coffee pot to cheer me up in the mornings.

tomato watch

I'm growing tomatoes (trying to grow tomatoes) there are lots of little flowers so hopefully lots of tomatoes!

 

 This summer my dad built a veggie patch for us . If you want to be happy for an hour get drunk, if you want to be happy for a year fall in love, if you want to be happy for life take up gardening (chinese proverb) growing carrots , lettuce , scallions, rocket and corriander , yum !

pretty pictures

two tapestry pictures found in a charity shop in antrim , bought for 1 pound ! and the crochet flowers are made by my mum
