Its early monday morning the 25th of november. One month till christmas,
and this morning I am going to tackle my christmas decorating while

Its beginning to feel alot like christmas,
Im enjoying pinterest and all
its christmas ideas.
I am looking forward to it this year more so
as my youngest is a christmas fanatic like myself.
The past 2 months we have been in 
full song carol mode much to the dislike
of my eldest son.
I have been busy making and preparing 
christmas deco's.
But before I share those I have been making 
furniture, now Im no carpenter by all means,
But I love the hammer and nails, I whipped up
this book stand from a bedside cupboard adn the top
I just made from recycled 
timber lying around.






                                                                        Theres not much of anything I wont try,
                                                             The draw I had to make as the original
                                                             was missing. Its alittle on the rustic side,
                                                            but I love it and think it works well with this piece.




I will be back soon with decos to share ,,
till then take care.

 Each year I pick my lavender for drying 
and using it for lavender bags.
Its not the best lavender
For cutting and drying,
It smells amazing and works
just the same.
 
 

A random photo from a gorgeous nursery.




My new little bundle of joy.
A boy named Cheeks.
He is about 6 weeks.
 


I no he looks so incredibly uncomfitable,
But he was such a good sport
and was only in the tea cup 
for just acouple of minutes.

I will be back later this week 
with new tote designs for etsy.
Have a great week.

I was up so early this morning and it is such a gorgeous day. We had fog laying in the valley between the mountains, and the sweet smell of the wisteria wofting through the air, it makes me smile. So off I went and grabbed my camera and was pleasantly surprized with the photos this morning,


There are alot of photos in this post, so bare with me, lol. Look at the spider web behind the little apple tree, it looks amazing with the dew on it.









This geese was a birthday present from my husband, I will buy another 2 . They just have the right amount of rust.









I have a few lavender plant around my garden. I harvest there flowers and dry them for sachets.







This little angel lays beneath a magnolia we planted when I lost my baby 2 years back, Isnt she sweet, my husband and I both found her at a little shop and decided she would watch over a our little cherub.







I found this rusty beauty on a side walk collect and sent hubby back for it, Again just the perfect rust amount.
