the start of the growing season.....


paper pots made...
filled with our own compost...
expertly riddled by me with the help of ghillie mcdog who ran off with the larger lumps....
and also left the teeth marks in my potter just so i knew he had helped in his own special way...
... and peed up the wheelbarrow...
and ran around field with the box of seed packets

summing it up mcdog is not what you would call a gardeners best friend...



yet more treasures being dug out of packing boxes...
completely forgot i had these old pastry cutters...



and....
contemplating wallpaper...
one wall in the kitchen only - above sink unit and deep band of wall tiles....

not sure...

a little too twee?
a little too obvious in a house by the sea?

ack
it does look kinda good but i am not sure...

what to do?
what to do?

Great idea about the newspaper for seedlings, I use toilet roll inners but there are only so many you can get your hands on :-)

I like that wallpaper but then again I have a thing about birdies at the moment so maybe i am not the best person to ask.

Bless that Ghillie he just wants to help his mama lol in his own speical way.
Loving the apple box i remember when you had them for sale, i missed out on getting a couple, oh poo!
If you ever sell or find any again let me sweetie, they are so handy.
The wall paper is very nice too. i can't help on the what to do front thought sorry sweetie. I'm sure you're find the perfect spot.
With love,
