TAP TURNS ON THE WATER,
SEE THE WATER FLOW....
Well, not quite yet but the new bathroom is inching its way towards completion...slowly slowly....
This is what my landing looks like at the moment! The tiles are all up now - we've chosen a large ivory tile with a really fab string course of 2 inch mosaic squares....
There are different stones, that mid grey is a glass effect and there are picture squares that are a little bit steampunkesque.....ooh, I love 'em. When you spend a lot of money on tiles, you keep your fingers firmly crossed that you like them when they're fixed to the wall!
The ceiling wasn't too clever either, so we bought some (extortionate!) textured paint which has done the trick....here's an action shot of Mr LLJ.....
who did a brilliant job (even if we did have to bin the tatty old shirt afterwards!!)
Right, that's one workdesk dealt with...now to the proper one!
I found a load of scraps lurking so was just having a look to see if they'd patchwork together to make something useful. Dunno if they do really, but leave it with me and I'll ponder some more :-)
I've started a honeycomb stitch scarf/shawl but am not happy with the way the variegated colours are working in the stitch so that'll be frogged later on. I love the soft, heathery colours though...at least something is going right!!
A couple of pics to leave you with....
The supermoon (before it turned red) with our local working windmill.....
...and over the Kennet and Avon canal (about a mile from my house). Great shots by Mr LLJ!
And finally.....I just had to take a pic of these at Winchester market....just thinking of Janet Fairythoughts once again. She loved the Minions so these reminded me of that awesome and lovely lady:
All together now: Ba na na, na na na NA!!
Miss you Janet xxxxxxx
