I’ve been so busy with my little B&B that I haven’t had time to think about my website at all! I’ve only got a few minutes now, but I’ve changed the theme and thought I’d better just say ‘S’mae’. I shall be selling some of my crafty makes tomorrow at a Coffee Morning to raise […]

Now I’ve finished the bulk of the decorating I can get on with stuff! There’s still decorating to do but it’s a case of doing it when I feel like it (mostly doors). Today I’m working on something that I’m honoured to do, but also sad. It’s the Order of Service for my friend, Amira, […]

I’m taking a forced break from painting as the stair and landing carpet is being fitted. I managed to get two window frames done this morning. Both in rooms away from the main work. I managed to get the house tidy enough for our two lots of paying guests at the weekend, including the dining […]

I am coming to the end of an intense period of decorating. We’ve had all our original 1920’s windows replaced with double glazing; no more rattly, draughty windows. But the dust and dirt gets everywhere! So I’ve been cleaning like mad and then decorating. I did my craft room back in February, before the windows […]

Not a lot on my desk at present – just money! I was chatting on Monday to a lady from church that runs her own business and she asked if I was able to make some birthday cards that she could send to her customers. I said I’d love to. She phoned up today to […]

So, today, hubby and I went to a car boot sale, a table-top sale, and several charity shops. We had a ball! I love having a mooch around a charity shop. Today my haul included a Lloyd Loom chair, curtains, and some decorative tins. The chair is currently that pink that was so popular with […]

It’s not so much a case of ‘what’s on my workdesk’, more a case of ‘I have a new workdesk’!! I’ve finally finished decorating, hubby’s put the carpet down, and I’ve got my new worktop in the room. Computer’s up and running; now it’s time to bring everything back in…. The little unit with orange […]

My craft room is coming along nicely. Painting’s finished, and hubby and I (well, mostly hubby) put the underlay and carpet down this afternoon. The carpet was from Freecycle a couple of years ago and has been used in one of our spare bedrooms. That room has had an en suite fitted and we’re getting […]

I’m sure it’s because I’m getting older; decorating seems to take much longer than anticipated these days. I seem to have been doing decorating of some sort for months now, although I believe it’s only been about 3 weeks. I had to leave my craft room after I finally got all the wallpaper off as […]

A friend of mine that blogs regularly does a ‘What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday’ (WOYWW). I was all set to do this on Wednesday just gone but my wireless keyboard wasn’t working. We’ve got the builders in at the moment and on Monday we had a slight problem with water coming through my craft room […]
