Hello everyone, I hope you all had a lovely Easter. It has been awhile since I last posted here as spring chores and projects took over. We took a day to clean up the cottage for the season a week or so ago so I am looking forward to being able to stay over there and relaxing for awhile. This will be our 3rd summer for enjoying our little cottage. It was a fixer upper so it wasn't all just about relaxing but we enjoyed seeing it all come together. As you can see we went with a blue and white theme which I find so relaxing. We still have some projects to finish but in the meantime we can enjoy the peace and beauty. The needlepoint sailboat pillow was a thrift find .....all I had to do was make it into a pillow. I enjoyed finding furniture etc. for the cottage at yardsales etc. and giving them a coat or two of white paint. I love this hedge of hardy roses and am so glad that someone had the foresight to plant them years ago. It is a lovely place to enjoy tea time. But you will often find me enjoying this view at the front of the cottage on beautiful summer days. Couldn't resist some sailboats inside. I love watching the sailboats go by. I have been busy with garden cleanup, furniture painting, a bedroom makeover some sewing and Easter so I hope you don't mind that I have been absent lately. On a different note, our garden is popping a little more each day. Soon, I will be able to pick my first bouquet of daffodils for the season. Hope you are enjoying your week and thank you for visiting me. Carolyn
