| Lucy's Cottage |
I must apologise for the long delay since I last posted here, however, we seem to have had week after week of illness or health problems since Good Friday - first with me and then with Lovely Hubby who has had a terrible time with high blood pressure and nosebleeds. Fortunately we are just about recovered now. It's good to start feeling human again, I can tell you, and just in time to enjoy the recent sunshine we've been blessed with.
Anyway, in this post I just wanted to share some pictures of our wonderful home that I've taken over the last couple of weeks. You'll gather three things about me straight away from my style: I'm quirky, I love colour and I love vintage :)
 |
| I recently sourced these cushions on Ebay - the velvet ones are vintage and the floral tapestry ones are "vintage lookalike". I painted the picture frames on the wall which are red and yellow - they were plain wood before. |
 |
| I love this corner of our lounge. You can't see from the photo but the lamp shines up on a dark green metal toad who is wearing a yellow bow-tie :) |
 |
| I have a gnome and toadstool obsession :) |
 |
| This bedding looks lovely but it won't stay clean for long with Lucy & Whiskers around !! |
 |
| My FIRST EVER sewing machine :) :) |
 |
| I bought this lovely mustard make-up purse from a lady on Instagram - she made it herself out of vintage barkcloth material. I love the colours. |
 |
| I received this wonderful parcel today from another wonderful lady I met through Instagram - she makes the most beautiful felt creations ! |
 |
| Our tulips at the front of the house are positively blooming ! |
 |
| My fairy garden :) |
 |
| Our scarecrow "kids", Georgina & George. Looking good in their new togs ! |
I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday and an even better week ahead.
