Happy Stuff

I love my gloves / mittens. I love the colours and the way they work with my vintage jacket. I like how they work with my favourite scarf without being the same. The colours are similar tones.

I've just resurrected my green jacket, I changed the buttons for these military style ones and it's rejuvinated my love of it. I bought it originally in my favourite charity shop. I don't know how old it is, but it's M&S.

(I need a haircut though.. look at it!)

The scarf was bought in a shop at one of my local National Trust houses.
It's so incredibly diverse, it works with almost everything I own.


Oh, and I was right about my other hyacinth.. it is indeed white, but the pink one isn't doing anything, and I don't know what's wrong with it, but it looks to have dried up or something. It still has plenty of water, so it's not that. If it doesn't do anything in the next day or two I'm going to get proper worried.

Can you see the snow as well? We've still got quite a bit lurking around in places. :)

My biggest thing to report today.. I've been a little naughty ;-)

I've bought a book.

A book of fabulousness and joy and inspiration and eye candy.

I've bought Cath Kidstons Sew! and it's fabulous. So far I've made a card, and I have plans to decorate a purple fleece blanket I've had for ages with flowers, or possibly birdies.. haven't decided yet. I'll show you as soon as I do.
