I'm feeling good

Its been an odd day but out of it I have fought through the blackness and searched out what has made me smile as I sit here. Its a simple process, and not remotely connected with anything but I thought I'd share.

Maybe it will prompt you too to see more of the happy in this day.

***********

* The Hammock and Maggie (both on the floor beside me but this was taken yesterday)

* Our new trellis, painted and with a new climber

* The salad spinner :)

* Making things I love

* My new in house watering can

* My flowers, Andrew picked and arranged

Much love
Carrie xx

      Nicole you are too kind. Naturally I haven't shown you all the mess that we clutter our lives in! But yep - huge lovers of colour in this house and I adore creating happy things. Hugs x

    Oh that hammock is wonderful. I love the felt birds, especially the turquoise and the green, I'm a bit obsessed with those colours at the moment. The flowers are lovely, I need to pick some here too. We've been away, and suddenly we're back and there are lots. Hope the rest of the week is good to you Carrie. CJ xx

      The hammock was an amazing find as the Oxfam Fair Trade shop was closing (still really cut up about that) and all stock was laying about all over the show. We saw the hammock, it was reduced a little and we just said yes!
      I am loving sewing again, thank you for your kind words - I have plans for those little turquoise guys but it's a secret at the moment....
      Hope you have a lovely bunch of flowers in your home xx Hugs

      When I rule the world, everyone shall have a hammock. They are so comfortable and make one feel so peaceful - it would be the much searched for answer to end all war! We must all unleash that inner hippie :) xx
