A FRESH NEW LOOK

*~* A FRESH NEW LOOK*~*

In rediness for the start of the New Year when I took down my Christmas decorations I made the big decision to have a big declutter and only put out the things I truly loved.. I must say since I took these pics there are a few changes made already LOL.. I love the simple white farmhouse look with the added nuturals and lots of fabric texture..

THE KITCHEN :


THE SNUG :
THE DINING ROOM :
THE MASTER BEDROOM :
WINTER ON THE VERANDER :
A LITTLE BIT OF SPRING :
I hope you have enjoyed my simple home tour and I will do the most recent updated pics soon.. I am still as busy as ever working my day job and also still designing and making my Attic Bears which is what I love to do most of all along with caring for my family and having fun with them.. I think God gave me such a busy life to keep me out of mischief LOL.. This year I made no rash resolutions out loud but quitely to myself I plan to design more of my patterns including some Attic Bear designs and also if I buy something new for my home I must let another item go (very hard for me ).. After my big declutter I bravely had the items taken away to an Antique shop and then to auction which will be held at the end of February.. Exciting stuff and I hope to attend too.. Sitting firmly on my hands LOL..
I also have a giveaway on the horizon so pop back soon.. *~* Blessings*~*

My painted Halloween

*~*MY PAINTED HALLOWEEN*~*

Living here in the U.K has it's down side sometimes.. We just don't have access to the wonderful white pumpkins so readily available in the U.S.. So this year to keep with the wonderful Farmhouse look that I love for my home I have had to get out my paint brushes and paint my pumpkins white then wax them to make them look authentic LOL.. I have kept my displays very simple for this Fall and Halloween and hope you like the look.. X

Thank you for stopping by and hope you enjoyed my pics... Have a wonderful day and *~*blessings*~*

A few simple displays from around my home.. I love daisy's big and small.. Just thinking this sweet little elephant is so prim but fits in perfectly..

A wooden box bursting with vintage games pieces..
My most favourite Bear and vintage chair..

I hope you have enjoyed these simple pics.. Have a great week..

VERANDA ALL FINISHED

*~* THE VERANDA ALL FINISHED*~*

In the five year plan my hubby had for our home a Veranda was well up on the list along with some other changes he wanted to do.. So after a large project he completed on the main part of the house last year he took pencil to paper at Easter and sketched a few ideas down.. He quickly got underway and dug the foundations..

This is the frame up and first stage of the roof.. The windows and slates came next
The floor and baulistrad came next..
Fun part for me now.. Dressing this wonderful space..

 

 

We wanted a swinging seat and so hubby once again had to design and make one.. It is simply perfect

 

 

I had to share this.. In the old barn there was some old horse irons and we made this great hanging candle light.. So pretty at night..
This is the most wonderful place to sit in the garden we all just love it and have sat here every evening this summer.. Glad you have stopped by..

Please feel free to leave a comment I love to read them..
