Project Paint

Morning peeps
More excited about my painting project as new goodies arrived in the post.. more paints, & finer brushes.. I will start running out of glass items so better look out for some bargain bits online.
I have hundred of embroidery designs on the PC so will trawl through for some pretty flowers and then print them off.
Whoopee, I will be off and running shortly, must go and do the ablutions first or I will be here in my dressing gown all day.. AND, from past experience I always get caught out. What delight will I choose today as I loved the orchid design and will do that again but in a different colour.
Well! It certainly a stop in day anyway as its dull, dark and gloomy outside. Where's that sun hiding.
The wedding season is having a slow start this year, perghaps its because of the crunch climate and possible postponement of these celebrations.. Afterall shoestring weddings are a thing of the past now.. Which also reminds me I need to make a couple of pretty spring green creations before this painting really get a hold.
Have a happy and fun filled Tuesday, I will.

Am I bored... Never

Been having some playtime while waiting for the wedding season to start..

I had a fab Christmas pressie of glass paints and following a few disasters and broken glass into the bargain, I fininally completed a stunning vase which has a pretty orchid design in muted lilacs & pink..

I have listed it for sale but really having second thoughts as I just love it

Our New Babies

I was so excited to see our new babies that I fogot to take an photo's..

This is a pic of our son-in-law's pup. Our's is identical except for a white flash under her chin.. Only two weeks to wait now... Just adorable I could have brought all six of them home with me..

Spain has definitely been put on hold.. Blowed if Im venturing out in all the snow thats forecast for UK and the continent.. We did aim to drive down, but do I look stupid!!! .. Roll on March hey.. Need some time with my new baby now...

On Nannie patrol tonight, so the boys have been fed and watered, had thier quiet time, one bedded down, one to go.. Guess its an early night for me as the little ones clock starts ticking veeeery early, and really! I dont do mornings. I suppose on reflection I will have to get used to it, especially with potty traing our new pup.. Owww!!!

Painting on Glass

Its sooo blinking cold I feel like hibernating till spring..

Practicing painting on glass, made a few gaffs. Luckily it can be washed off until you perfect a design.. When baked in the oven thats the final no going back step

Cannot sit doing nothing while waiting for sales and they are a bit thin on the ground at the moment.. I have to forcibly stop myself making yet another little gem, hence the painting.. They dont know what they are missing..

Will post more pics tomorrow after we have visited our new baby

Great Escape

I went into town early to escape the plumbing crew who were stripping out my bathroom.. Must admit they were quick tidy and its suprising how courteous they can be if fed with mugs of tea. Oh! and I forgot young and handsome.. Well! I have to say that, one is my gorgeous son..
I now have to wait delivery of the new suite.. lucklily we have another bathroom so no hardship..
I stocked up the larder, had a session at the hairdressers and came home frozen to bits.. God! it was bitter today.. Now i will sit tight until Saturday, then off to see my new baby..

A New Baby

So excited.. Just received photo's of the puppies we are gong to see on Saturday.. We, as in my son In law and I get to choose our German Shepherd bitches. We are having one each.
This will be my fourth german shepherd and trained right are the most fantastic breed to have. I have always maintained that if a dog bites, it is because of the way it has been raised..

My father was a farmer and trained cattle, sheep and gun dogs, and boy were they gentle. Remember him saying, no dog should be vicious, its the owners who need training in the first instant

Its Snow Joke

Bang goes the retail therapy trip..

Tutt!! I wanted some of those gorgeous uggies, a new winter coat and some trackies for travelling.. On reflection perhaps a shovel would be better

Too late now to buy online as we plan to go on hols on Monday..

To Go or Not to Go

To Go or Not to Go, that is the question...

Dilemma time... Do I stay home and hope for a rush of sales???
or
Do we take off to Spain for 3weeks???... Dont relish the three day driving there and same back which is the only option this time...

Mmmmmm!!! I wonder, as the weather look pretty webbed feet at the moment
