SO SORRY

I am so sorry that I have not taken part in herspace-myspace for a few day

computer has been crashing on me every time I put the thing on, a few times

have wanted to through it across the room, I am now hoping that it has been

sorted (fingers crossed).

Well I have done my SHOW OF SUNDAY it is not anything of excitement but I just have to show of my new craft room, my husband has been wonderful and put new work surfaces for me I have nearly put ever thing back in there. The new floor is wonderful, as you can see from the photo's of how the room was at the beginning of the week to what it is like now. There are still odds and ends to go on the walls and a curtain to go round tumble dry that is still in there as no where else for it to go but with a curtain round it you will not know that it is there.

I am spending the day today Scrapbooking at a charity scrapbook day really looking forward to that as may catch up with my half finished projects. Went to a scrapbook class yesterday down at http://scrapangels.co.uk/ had great fun they are such a great group of ladies down there in St Agnes.

Well here is the Craft Room

Thanks for taking the time to come back and look at my blog I promise

that I will try and keep putting things on it. :~)

TODAY'S HERSPACE-MYSPACE

Excited
One of the most happiest of emotions. Whats exciting through your lens?

Well to carry on from yesterdays word i am very excited that my craft room is having a new floor, it will also have new work tops and shelves. My craft room is what should be the utility room but then there would be no craft room so I told husband craft room more important unless he wanted it to be in the rest of the house. Will show photo's of it when finished.

Oh forgot to say that the white thing in the room is the boiler we don't have gas in are village so have oil.

YESTERDAY'S HERSPACE-MYSPACE

Sad
This week we are going to focus on emotions. We prompt you with one word and you translate it the best you can through your lens. Try hard as you can not to use a human face to reflect that emotion. For instance - Sad. A dying plant, a messy corner, mucky windows (we all have them at one point!)

Well yesterday was the word SAD well i am sad at the moment for several reasons computer crashed on Thursday so didn't get on here what i wanted to, came back from wedding with a bit of a chest of infection so haven't been well for last few day so that is why i am playing catch up today. The other reason that i am sad is i have no dinning room as craft room is having a new floor put in, all craft bit and pieces are are in there and just can not move in there.

This is my favourite window in our cottage,

I am sorry if photo is a little dark and also it wasn't until I put it on computer that my husbands stepladders are in the back ground he has been painting the outside.
I love my kitchen scales they are old I got them at a car boot for 2 pounds (sorry pound sign not working on computer).
Pink Jug was given to me for Christmas from my daughter, plants are Cati, and some others that I can't remember what they are called not very good with names of plants if they look nice then i keep them even if they are weeds hahaha.
The thing at the front of the photo is called a fruit safe it has mesh so the flys can't get to the fruit. Well don't know what else can i say about this photo.

We are friends

So this is SOS I am not quite sure what I am to show off but here goes..........



This is a photo of our cat called Milly and our puppy called Holly, we got Holly last December as a 9 week old puppy she is such a funny little thing. Milly is 6 years old we got her when she was 6 months old from a cat home she is a very quite cat just likes to sleep like most cat. When we got Holly, Milly didn't want to know so for the last 9 months they just stay away from each other until yeasterday and I was able to take this and many others.

BATHROOM

Herspace-Myspace

Bathroom
Often a room used for convenience but have you a pretty little corner in your bathroom or something that you like about it?

Well took loads of photo's of my bathroom but was not happy with any apart from this one, it is a corner in bathroom just under the window. The pink duck was in my christmas stocking last year from my husband. The candles where a present for my 40th birthday in April they are so nice i just don't want to light them. The wicker ball is something I got years ago from Ikea.

HALLWAY

Herspace-Myspace

What hidden treasure or favourite spot do you just LOVE about your hallway?

Well I don't have a hallway so have taken a picture of my landing. The picture at the top is Called "and when did you last see your father?" by William Frederick Yeames I love this picture my sister and I brought it for our dad for Christmas about 7 years ago, when dad died 2 years ago mum gave it to me and it is pride of place on the top of the landing so everyone can see it. These are some of the many books that we have in our house.

Herspace-Myspace

I added from my own stash the letters which are from Boxer Scrapbook, a button and some crystal sticker gems.
