LOOK AT MY NAUGHTY STASH...

Hi ladies, yes I'm still here... I really don't have any excuses for not blogging only that I have been working a lot and tired a lot... Anyway I have been having a quick sneak peak now and then and I'm in awe of all you lovely talented ladies. I just can't believe all the energy and enthusiasm you guys have.

I had a lovely camping trip with my sisters and all the kids, my daughter took a few of her friends with us so it was a bit full on especially in the bathroom... I'm sure you can imagine. Haven't really had a chance to look at the pics we took but I will definately post them when I get around to it...

I'm still recovering financially though and I've been very good on ebay and

http://www.gailmccormack.com/ Gail's website which I am a regular to. But last week I just lost it and went a little crazy and yes you guessed it; I just had to have them.

So here are some pics of my new treasures they are just lovely I'm very proud of myself...

Firstly my new Gail bathroom print isn't it devine...

Now I might have to change my whole bathroom decor from blue to pink...

Then I really splurged on this gorgeous 'American Beauty' trio and sugar/creamer set (I won't tell you how much it cost) but it was way toooooo much and I think it's the start of a collection...

I also got this lovely pedestal plate stand it's so sweet I absolutely adore it...

And this little crystal vase which next year will be full of real roses from my garden...

Last but not least I also got a lovely Ashwell Roseblossom quiltcover set and these lovely photo frames they came with pictures of vintage ladies wearing pink hats but I replaced them with my own little 'angels' first holy communion photos.

Just look how the lovely Tanya (chic2510) from Ebay has wrapped them I felt like it was my birthday I didn't want to unwrap them they looked so lovely...

and she even included these lovely little tags as well...

Oops nearly forgot my gorgeous little vegetable tureen...

Don't you just LUV them, I must say they have cured my feeling sorry for myself...

Ok enough of the good stuff, you know how it is when your just too busy to do anything and things all of a sudden start to get neglected, well my garden does... My lovely fuschia is no more, along with a few other favs and the two new rose gardens I planted back in spring that I didn't get around to putting the weed mat down, well the grass was taller than the roses.

So I spent all day pulling out grass and weeds now they are ready for the weed mat and bark, but to my surprise the roses are still going great. My pride and joy cecille brunner weeping rose has finally grown over the hoop and looks ready to start weeping...

This photo is back in Spring when I was thinking 'mmmmm' is it going to do anything...

And "TA DA" look at it now and it's been flowering all summer too which is great...

Ok now I'm off to catch up with everyone so I will be unavailable for the rest of the night.

Have a great one
