Good Saturday Morning Ladies,
My goodness did we have a heavy frost, I was so shocked when I looked out and everywhere was still 'white' with frost, it remained all day in places that the Sun didn't reach! We were planning to move all of the pots into greenhouse this weekend, Paul got them all in yesterday afternoon, I hope and pray we weren't too late, I'd be sad to lose all of my Geraniums etc.
We are going to Garden centre today and getting food shop on the way home, what do you all have planned?
I'm sure Paul would tell you that I'm 'more than' enough 🤣😂
It took me a while to spot the reminder at first ❤️
Paul bought the last Dahlias in for me, look how beautiful they are....
They are so beautiful and definitely a highlight of our garden, I absolutely adore then and can pretty much guarantee I'll be adding a couple to my collection 😍
I have been good and haven't added to my 'Repository of Creative Supply ' 🤣 Since a week or more before surgery, however I saw Emila Sieradzan Vintage Christmas collection yesterday and couldn’t resist, look at some of these images....
There are lots more images too, I can't wait to sit and play. 🥰

Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteGreat quote! 🙂
Maria your shopping looks great, enjoy! Your crystal art ornaments are beautiful.
I saw Emilia’s new collection on Facebook too and wondered if you’d bought it 😂 it does look beautiful.
Have a good day
Hugs to all xx
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteOh I love your flowers, they are beautiful. Do you have to move them indoors for the winter ? I'm asking because my sister has hers in a border in the garden .
Beautiful vintage Christmas papers. Looking forward to see your pages with them.
You know how it is when you are standing and looking at things at a fair and it's looks beautiful, everything looks easy to make and therefore I bought this ribbon maker 🤭😊 thankfully he told me that they are on a website so I can see again how to make the bigger ones. How many things have you bought and it's looks great at a show and when you get home it doesn't work ?
Thank you for showing the little crystal. They are for the tree because you can put drills on both sides but I think they will go on cards like you say 😉
I have a photo of my sister in law that I have made into a crystal art that I'm working on at the moment. I just hoping it will come out alright. Sadly many times people have made some, the faces looks really weird and colours are not good so fingers crossed this one comes out fine. It's a present for her 80th birthday on 1 of January. OH is watching sports. We had a little walk out this morning. Gloves and hat was needed because it was really cold but everything looked pretty with the frost covering the ground.
Hope you have a good day. Many hugs to you all, Maria xx
