Mannequins





Do you ever have days where you just want to clean and wash and tidy everything?
Well I had one of those days - took down some drapes, that needed washing and just a general overall clean up!

Then I thought of a few of my favourite things ~ the first French picture, is one that I got from Counting your blessings. She has the most wonderful free blog headers, of such pretty things.

The others are some of my favourite things around the house, that I took some photos of, my Chantall Thomass umberella I bought for myself and some old and lovely things that I adore. I love all things that are old!

I hope that your weekend is going well and you are having a good one.

Hugs
Carolyn

    Yes, it is a purse/suitcase and I store pantyhose in it.
    Quite a useful little bag as it keeps them altogether.

    Ps Wonderful day? we are pulling the kitchen apart and doors need to come off, for painting. It will be nice when it is finished, but oh it is so hot.
    Will show you when we have finished.

    Carolyn...it must be a New Year's thing or something!

    You are so right... I do feel absolutely smug about my little cleaning and tidying project....

    By the last few weeks in January I want to be all done with things so I can begin a bear or doll.....

    Good luck BumbleVee and look forward to seeing your next creation,... a new bear or doll.

    Hugs

    Hi Carolyn, Such pretty pictures! I wish I carried through with the "I should clean up" feeling . . . it is the completion part that is lacking in my home, LOL. Glad you finished your jobs :)

    What lovely treasures they are Carolyn. I must say though I don't ever get an urge to clean, wish I did, at least once a year. I do it but with such reluctance!
