Pretty Shelves...

This morning I sat on the sofa, cup of tea to the side, 3 kiddos happily playing before we went on the school run and when I looked up there was my pretty little vintage mirror with a dash of homemade bunting to the left, a pretty home made heart a-top and our Union Jack Flag still on the wall...
all looking chirpy as the weather is turning out to be


I've done a few boring bits of housework, Fonzy has strewn too many toys across the floor to make hoovering possible so I'm making lemonade with lemons, instead of huffing/puffing whilst I clear the floor, I'm taking a well earned treat at the table with the laptop!
The sun is on my back, pouring through the patio doors and when I look up I spy...


A little blue sewing box that is IDENTICAL to the one my darling Gran bought me when I left home {only just 16years old}, mine is in brown though.  
A sneaky peak of one of the little Jubilee hats Lolly made and a pink garden pot I picked up at the boot sale recently.  I love these planters for indoors, great for storing pens, scissors n 'stuff'
Next down is one of the Marks and Sparks tins my mum gave us this Jubilee, they were for a very short time filled the the most delicious shortbread!  A little Japanese tin I use to store drawing pins...
then the jar of Oh SO much fun little wooden elves - they deserve a post all to themselves!
Below all that...

pretty stock waiting to get listed onto Etsy

oh and I almost forgot, I hoiked Grans old biscuit tin and have also had the pleasure of getting glimpses of that as well today...

did I mention the sun? ;)

Thanks for popping by...I love to hear from you and really appreciate you taking the time.
I am sorry about having to ask you to prove you're not a robot but for some reason I am having a LOT of spam nowadays {and we're not talking fritters!}
