WHICH LOOKS BETTER?

 

FIRST AND FOREMOST:  Happy Wedding Anniversary to us.  We have been married 37 years today.

💚💙💖I still love ya Darling!💗💝💜 

I'm thinking dinner out somewhere nice is called for.

Well, it's going to be another day pottering around the house.

Another day with no walk planned over in Cambridge, unless I go to the 6.45 am one, and I'm not keen on getting up that early again!

There is a good one on Friday, so I'll probably go to that one.  It's 6.4 kms, so hopefully my blisters are a bit better by then.  

Ones on top of me big toe (right foot), and one is on the side of my big toe (left foot).  Most annoying.

In the meantime, here's a question for you:

ABOVE:  I made a floral pillow case for this bed yesterday.  I thought it matched the throw nicely.

Then... I got thinking...

ABOVE:  What if I made an end of bed throw in the same floral blocks?  I'm also thinking of covering the black flower centres with a softer colour.

I've not sew them up yet... waiting for your opinions.

Is it too much?  Bearing in mind it will be slightly narrower than the blocks shown right now.

Let me know your thoughts.

For the time being, I have plenty of other stuff to keep me occupied.  

ONWARD...

 

9.15 am:  and I'm listening!  I will do some 'tweaking' in that bedroom before I settle on the final look.  I want it to be a calm, pretty room for when we have Keera here for a sleep over, or later on, Lily.  

ABOVE:  And there ya go.  I kept the striped throw... cos it was just too busy with the flowers!  Now all it needs is a simple white headboard, which Steve is going to make for me.

Stuff paying through the nose for one from a shop.  They are even an exorbitant price on Trade Me!

Hmmm... I wonder if there's any on Facebook Market Place?   Off to look...

Well that was easy, and fast.  It looks like I've found a headboard here in Hamilton.  I'm just waiting to sort out pick up details.  So, that's saved Steve a job.  And it was super cheap.  

Dinner this evening is being postponed until tomorrow night now.  I completely forgot it is THURSDAY, and it's Stew's night at the pub with his mates.  Silly me.  We will enjoy dinner tomorrow night just the same.

Looks like I will be picking up the 'new' headboard late this afternoon.  Awesome.  I can probably paint it tomorrow, as it will need a new coat of paint. WHOOP!

Just home and guess what?  I don't need to paint that headboard after all.

ABOVE:  Look at that!  It suits there PERFECTLY.

One less job.

Now... I'm just waiting for Stew to arrive home, then I can take him to the pub.

8.15 pm:  And we are home again.  Stew enjoyed a couple of hours at the pub, and I got to hang  out with the kids.  

So a lovely evening for both of us.  Time to sign off for the day now.  Catch ya tomorrow.
