Saphy at http://saphysprogress.blogspot.com/ kindly gave me this award and I'm so thrilled, thanks Saphy!



I believe I have to tell you 7 things about me now, so here goes.

1. I'm addicted to magazines.

2. I love skulls on things.

3. My favourite films include Rambo and Rocky.

4. I like reading crime thrillers.

5. I am a primary school teacher.

6. I also trained as a nursery nurse.

7. I always buy a large Mr Kipling iced fancy cake for my birthday!

I want to nominate some blogs now which I always enjoy reading.

Bluebird notes at http://bluebirdnotes.blogspot.com/ for her lovely pastel pictures

Irma at http://allemaalkleurtjes.blogspot.com/ for her gorgeous pictures and pastels

Dee at http://deedeesvintageretrodelights.blogspot.com/ she makes great clothes and things for her house

Dutch Sisters at http://dutchsister-s.blogspot.com/ for being so inspiring

Scrappy happy me at http://dayhomemama.blogspot.com/ for her amazing creations

There are loads more I could pick, all the blogs I follow are wonderful in different ways.

Now I want to share some bargins I've picked up over the last couple of days.

£11 instead of £15 from Past Times as it was closing down,
it's for my new front door.


Tea towel £4 from £6 from Past Times again.


Went to Morrisons for food shop and picked this up,
gorgeous bottle and it is also a room scent with the sticks.
Thanks Mester Morrisions £3.50. This will go with all
of my candel sticks and tea light holders.


Went to Dunelm to change a chain for a blind in the
bathroom and came back with this set, £3.99 from £6.99

Mester Morrisons again, £2.50 for house hydranga plant, pot my own.


Got this on ebay, couldn't resist cos it had a skull on!

Bee happy x
Have a delicious day!
