Garden

Beetle modeling this season's cow parsley.



I'm slowly beating my unruly garden into submission. I don't dare take photos of the worst bits...much too embarrassing! After a hard slog trying to battle it out with brambles over the winter, new nasties such as nettles, buttercups, bind weed (the list is endless) have completely taken over. There was only one thing for it... a massive dose of weedkiller. I am now taking great pleasure in watching everything die. I must say, I'm loving the poison!

1950s Chairs.

I found these in the local charity shop. They came with filthy black plastic seats and were absolutely covered in sticky grime! After much scrubbing they look a little better. I'm still debating on what fabric I shall reupholster them with. They're pretty low so I'm going to make cushions for them too.

Painting

A recent painting I did. I have just discovered household paint tester pots.
