summer vintage finds.......

i'm in love......it is official.....with my lovely deer and fawn head vase.....it brightens up my days and makes me smile.....it's soooooo shiny ( my girls do sometimes worry about me !!)
with matilda to care for we haven't had too much time for vintage and thrifty shopping........but with the few times i've ventured out i haven't been dissappointed, my beloved vase was an ebay buy...when you can't get out and shop ebay is the way to go !!!!

this lovely owl trivet was from a local secondhand shop and the jug was from a little aladdins cave i have come across 50p each........

a lovely lace effect teapot doubling up as a vase for flowers from my garden...........and below more plates and a fantastic turquoise rabbit jelly mould........

take care my lovelies.....kitty x

an unexpected blog break.........

 hey....i'm back....after a pretty rough time we have had with our very beautiful little doggie girl, miss matilda..

she has been really ill, so ill i thought we were going to lose her at one point, i have been so consumed with getting her better that i haven't had much time for anything else, she has been so good and brave and strong and is now almost back to her usual mischevious self, her vet visits have now gone to every other week instead of weekly and her medicines have gone right down, and life around here can pretty much get back to some sort of normal......we are so grateful to our vet who has been really good with her and so thankful that we have her insured (the vet bills so far have come to well over £1000, i really recommend that everyone should get their pet insured, it has been stressful enough as it is, and i'm so grateful that we didn't have to worry about how we would pay for her treatment) i have also been giving her reiki on a weekly basis, which i'm sure as also helped her.......hey....that is something you don't know about me...i'm a qualified reiki practioner.....although i don't do it for a living.....

well here is to our lovely girl matilda.......we love you xxx
