White Wednesday

Hey Blogettes,

I'm joining in White Wednesday over at Faded Charm its her 75th White Wednesday!

Dear little White Pom Pom back then,a sweet adorable little puppy,who just loved to sleep the whole day through......

And now all grown up and Mummy's little shadow,wherever i go she go's too.....

I love you PomPom you melted my heart and changed my life....
Diamonds are not this girls best friend,
Love Kristina x

Something's gotta give!

Hey Blogettes,

Have you seen the movie Something's Gotta Give? i have watched it so many times you wouldn't believe or would you? maybe you snuggle up and think ah what the heck! i'll watch it one more time there's nothing else on,like i do? i even collected a pocket full of white pebbles from the beach and i am waiting for him to pick me a black one...

Well watching again i noticed the...(ok you can start laughing now...if not you soon will be) gable end of the Something's Gotta Give house has these corbel things in a row underneath the attic window......

And we have them on ours? oh and the pebbles too haha (who's laughing?) awwwww look at our dream Beach Cottage...reality can be harsh can it not? (click on picture for a better laugh)

you can also see my neighbors sparkly new roof to the right of the picture and just below the hedge that i severely cut back last week,the huge pile of branches from cutting the garden down will come in handy once the fireplace is fitted....the board against the side of the house used to be the sun room floor but it was a bit manky so we had to tear it out and that is when the window flew out to the right of the door that is now boarded up...we have never laughed so hard,honestly it was like a comedy sketch.....(we don't slam anything around here now just in case something else drops off)
So my question to you is....would you cedar shingle the whole house like the Something's gotta give house and paint the corbels and edging white? we really want to go with cedar shingles as they are really insulating and they look great,do any of you have them on your home?

The tide was really far out and the beach looked huge...not bad for a November day...

Until Later x

Hey Blogettes,

This is our main room with a pretty bow window,are you thinking window seat? ...if you were to look here it would be the window to the right of the picture.....outside i cut the hedge right back as it was too wide and the fence beyond painted and a flower border dug over and prepared for roses.....

If you follow the wall around from the left of the window above you would come to the fireplace in the corner..i love that the chimney is a corner and with the house being south facing we get sun shining on the fireplace  all morning....

The  fire place in the picture above has now been removed and tomorrow the chimney stack is to be built a little taller....

The seagulls laughing above our cottage last week...fingers crossed the sky will be blue again this weekend.....

The sky at night on the way back last weekend was so beautiful it filled my heart with joy.....

Hopefully i can post some pictures tomorrow of how the fire place is coming along and a few projects i have been up to,

Until later x
