Sunny Sunday!







It was a really sunny day here in Glasgow today. Very, very warm. The boy and I started the day forming part of his local nursery garden work party, lots of potting of plants which made me feel a bit shamefaced about the state of our own wee garden. We spent the rest of the day in our garden or thereabouts and we all loved how happy the sun and the outdoors made us feel.

David cut the grass and we kept the doors open till the evening. The kiddos are a bit scared of the lawnmower so watched it from the safety of the house.

The top two pics are of glass lampshades which were another cheeky charity shop buy in Crieff. I have plans for them and couldn't resist photographing them in the sun! Despite them only costing a few pounds I think the more pink of the two is actually quite lovely- maybe a bit older than I originally thought!

I swear we heard that fairy bell ring!!

    Sounds like a great weekend! My little one also doesn't like loud noises and tends to hide in his room when I get the vacuum out :-) Love your living room! x

      I have to confess the lampshades were a feature in Living Etc a few years ago, from BQ, so I snapped them up! Thanks for visiting I appreciate it, Jo x
