We are having another mini heat-wave.

I didn't know where to put myself yesterday

and somehow Algie coped. He's not too fond of the heat!

 

 

Loving greetings to you all xx



Just a nice quote I thought!

Lovely to hear from old friends.

I managed to get this beautifully made wood cutlery box

at our local WI Auction.

I stripped the inside, lining it with some curtain material that I had.

Then I painted the roses and swags all around it with

acrylic paints....finishing with the folk art angels on the lid.

Gave it a coat of matt varnish and Voila!

My Angel Box!

All of my friends seem to have stopped blogging and

moved their pictures and comments

to Facebook....

And I'm sorry I have followed suit to keep up with new kits

and the pictures they make with them.

Good and fond wishes,

A Series of Three..

Madame Hollyhock

This started out as a picture of one of the hollyhock flowers

in my garden.

I added a few things, then the rainbow and butterflies

and this is what happened.

Sometimes I never know what I shall finish up with!

My Muse has a mind of her own!

I am in a lot of pain but I am happy.

All's well with my world till the next hiccup......

Keep smiling ....xxx

The Golden Madonna

This took a little time and many many layers

but it turned out just the way I wanted it.

Sometimes you start with an idea in your head and as you progress

it seems to have a mind of it's own, taking you in a

completely new direction and you finish up with something

completely different than the original thought

in your mind.

I'm rambling again.

Many Blessings

The Rain Man....

We are in the middle of a real

heat wave!

The sort of heat we are nowhere prepared for....

For July 1st I thought a cooling picture

more appropriate.

Think cool thoughts everyone...

Another Dream...

Apache Blessing

A gorgeous morning here..at last I think Summer has arrived!

We often spend our days rushing about, working hard and sometimes getting overtired and stressed. So I have found this lovely old Apache Blessing for you. Read and relax....breathe deeply and slowly...relax your shoulders and be ready to see what the day will bring.....

Birthday Boy

Algie is 3 today  May 24th.

His party hat has Norwich City colours on as a tribute to

his team playing at Wembley tomorrow.

On the ball City!!

Beauty..

So enjoyed playing with some new kits and love

making vintage anyway,

I called her just 'Beauty'....

Once upon a time...

I was sent this photo of a little girl by an old friend and asked  

'if I could do something with it'..

So after playing all afternoon and with 20 layers

this is what I came up with.

And Yes he was very pleased...smile...
