Last Weeks Finds

 
We spent all of Friday shopping in the city and my better half patiently drove around to my favourite op shops . I found some very pretty table cloths , and a  water bottle.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I picked up this gorgeous old jar in a vintage market
 
 
 
 
We spent the rest of the weekend in the garden, so we popped into Mr VL 's nursery to pick up plants and I snuck into the giftware and brought a pretty bottle home
 
 
 
 
We weeded ,  mowed, trimmed miles of box hedge, planted tons of plants.
 
 
 
 
 
 
so much more still to do !!
 
 
 
 
Inside the house I finally have a walk in robe ...YAYY!!
 
 
 
 
 
The very first iris to open

    I always enjoy the photos of your beautiful property. When you wrote that you finally had a "walk in robe" I was puzzled. I know a robe as a dressing gown or dress. Then I realized you meant a "walk in closet" for your clothes! Isn't the English language a real "kick." Linda@Wetcreek Blog

    Your garden is looking so beautiful and I love the floral cloth. You must have the magic touch when op shopping.
