FOOT STOOL + TAPESTRIES + JODIE-LEE

Hi cuties! Hope that you are all well!

In this post, I would like to share with you some darling photos of our Jodie-Lee.

This year mummy bought these tomato plants... at a bargain price!

The original price was £6.98.

And the price was marked down to £1.98 and £2.10.

They didn`t look the healthiest of plants, hence the cheaper price!

And here were the results!

After J.Lee nurtured them back to health...

She had so much fun... eating them too!

(Here she was wearing her Portuguese football kit.)
You now know which football team she was supporting during the world cup!:-)

 I was privileged to sample one...

And can honestly say that they were the juiciest and sweetest cherry tomatoes ever!

 She was also in charge of the herb garden!?

 And it was so much fun seeing J-L being so attentive to the herbs...

Although... Sadly the strawberries didn`t do so well!
So  J.L was a bit upset... She`s done a good job, looking after them...
Although the wet Summer weather didn`t help!

Thanks for letting me share these photos with you... as every proud mummy likes to remember these precious moments!...

Now moving on... I`m still doing bits here and there in my living room!

On one of the walls... I decided that it would be nice to have a display of beautiful vintage tapestries.

So I have been busy painting frames that I had, white...

And sweet hubby has been busy making some frames for me too!

Hasn`t he done an amazing job?

 This tapestry is my all time favourite! And I can`t wait to be on full display, for everyone to admire!
(I bought it on Ebay! The seller had a buy it now price of £30.00 or make an offer.
I made a cheeky offer of £20.00, although he said he wanted £22.00 for it!
Fine by me! As it is one of my favourite things in my living room!)
And I know that I will treasure it, always!

I`m yet to buy a few more to add to my tapestry wall... so I put a few bids on Ebay... fingers crossed!
(Although, I`ve noticed that vintage tapestries are becoming quite popular... and prices aren`t as cheap, as they used too!)
Maybe its a new trend? A bit like granny blankets and eiderdowns...
Which I happen to L.O.V.E both, too!

I`m hoping to display these cute vintage paintings somewhere in the living room too!
And the frames have been painted already..

I wish I could say that I painted them... But sadly I can`t paint to save my life!Lol

I also managed to recover hubbies foot stool...

But decided to use a different vintage fabric!

I`m very happy with the make-over!
I think I`ve covered everything... for now!
Take care!

TODAY I`M DREAMING OFF...

THAT I WILL WIN THE TAPESTRIES ON EBAY!

SO I CAN COMPLETE MY TAPESTRY WALL!

 P.S- Here is how my wall is looking at the moment!

(I took this photo late at night... Hence being dark. Sorry about that!)

And here is my beautiful tapestry!

Which happens to have 5 beautiful birds. We are a family of 5.

So in a way I feel that it represents one of us!

I think I`m the middle bird... The one that is looking down at her mischievous baby...

Which in our case, has to be my 8 year old very mischievous Daniel!Lol

Sorry for the random post!:-)
