Making me happy, right now, this moment!
Lovely, lovely gift from a overy special friend! (One little cup missing in action, on a courier van- hope it finds me quickly!) I love this coffee set....and my friend didn't even know I was looking for one! Look at those colours!
Top tray of my Vintage Wallpaper Trolley....swoon! Always swooning!
Vintage Sheets, always making me happy!
My bag of crochet, left on the table after last nights Crafty Club! We were freewheeling last night, some stitching, some needle felting, little bit of crochet.....lots of chatting, laughing and sipping of refreshments!
On top of Clarice, my sewing machine! Just waiting to be stitched!
Smiling at colourful bobbins.....
Just a few of my lovely books....I've got far too many! (That's not a complaint by the way!)
Betty Blue......we love you! Big Grin every time I look at her!
Only a few FQ left in my little cupboard....must make some more!
Gifts from Very Talented Ladies.....more Big Grins!
Vintage wallpaper in my bedroom....
Pretty perfume bottles.....
Cosy pillows.....
Special cards from lovely blog friends....
The promise of delicious strawberries!
Sat chilling....listening to my fab radio....always making me smile!
I love the '52 Weeks of Happy' many of you do with Jen. Unfortunately I'm not organised enough to take part each week, so this is my little contribution today! I'm never sad for long.....too many lovely things surrounding me, making me grin like a Cheshire Cat!
Looks like the sun is trying to peek out from behind the clouds so off to crochet in the sun! And perhaps a little blog reading!
Bye for now!

DeleteHi Ada
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful and colourful post. I love your cups, they are amazing. And your crochet work is great. I smiled as I saw your books. Four of them are also on our table near the sofa;). Your crochet bag is so pretty. The sun is shining here, but I stay inside because 34 degrees are to much for me. So I will try to crochet some rows. Have a wunderful and sunny week.
