Buttons


Well I just adore buttons! I found all of these when I was least expecting it. I never do anything with them but place them in a drawer and when the mood strikes I go and run my hands through them!

What do you like collecting? My other big thing right now is fabric much to the dismay of my husband.

Vintage Goodness



I wanted to share with everyone all of the most amazing vintage goodness from when I went to England. Hopefully I can find all of my other items and post them too sometime.

First is lots of old embroidery threads in the most amazing pastel colors. In some ways I want to use them but in another I want to frame the whole scrumptious box!

Spring has finally arrived

Spring has finally shown its face and appears to be here permanently now. I have spent this morning sowing all my vegetable seeds, whether anything actually grows is another matter! It is rather shady where I planted them but until my husband gets the tiller fixed I am unable to start some veg in a more sunnier location.

Here is the list of the vegetables we gathered last year (feel free to laugh!)

3 Tomatoes
10 Lima Beans
2 Radishes
Turnip Greens
Possibly some beetroot that decided to grow over winter!

How is your spring planting going? What are you growing?
