weekly stills







Weekly Stills:

1. Hooking up a few flowers.

2. Cute new Scandi cups that I picked up for a song.

3. Cute new sewing tin that I couldn't resist, I just love Fiona Hewitt's work. I'm sure I'll find                               something to put in it.

4. Cute nieces and kitty having a bit of sleep time, that cat gets lots of love!



Joining in with the others at Weekly Stills headquarters over here.

How is your week looking?

    1. Hi Michelle, I love them too, I'll probably use them for milk shakes or something cold, we don't really do coffee in our house, so don't have to worry about burnt fingers! Thanks for visiting, J xx

  3. I love those Scandi mugs! I am SO jealous of this precious find! And those canisters in the background are pretty special too!

  4. Hilarious! I love all your pics but am still laughing at the last one. Despite being very fond of cats and even having a separate cat blog I totally missed the conked out kitty draped across your niece's knee till I read your list and had to go back. Both girls have the most amazing smiles and just look so happy and relaxed that kitty didn't even register.

    1. Hi RedSetter, How funny! The girls love that kitten so much, whenever they come over, he is the centre of their attention! And yes they were pretty pleased when he fell asleep on them, they do have gorgeous smiles I agree! Thanks for stopping by, have great week, J xx

  8. It's all lovely! I couldn't have passed that tin (or the cups) up either, I'm a sucker for tins (my cabinets are lined with them!), and love thrifty finds too.lol Spring cleaning going on here.

    1. Hi Angela, I love tins too, I think they are breeding in my cupboards!! I need to get into a big spring clean around here, my house is looking decidedly dumpish at the moment! Thanks for visiting, have lovely day, J xx

  9. I am loving your home - I thought for a moment you were taking photos in your local branch of IKEA. it looks all designer-ee. I wish my house could look like that but my minimalist husband would have heart palpitations!

    1. Thanks Megan, Unfortunately it is only a few small areas of our house that look anything nearing designer-ee, most of it is a big mess!! I think my boys are all going to turn out minimalists having grown up with me, they don't really like all my "junk" around the place! My husband doesn't seem to mind though, or he doesn't say anything at least! Have a great days, thanks for visiting, J xx

    1. Thanks Nicole, you really have to take those moments of thrifty treasure finding and go with them don't you? I have a few things I regret passing up too, luckily there is always another thrifty find around the corner! Have a great day, J xx

  12. Jules those scandi cups are amazing, what a great find and def, photo worthy. They are so hard to find at the oppy these days but l always hold out hope for old school casserole dishes, cups and saucers and a vintage wooden shadow box for my little one's wall. Sometimes you get lucky and the oppy god's are smiling at you.

  13. Hi Julie, I'm Shelley from the blog with Pip course, loving your blog, think we might have quite similar tastes though I'm just teaching myself to crochet at the moment. Love the sagaform cups and I want that tin lol, I spy a lot of Cath Kidston and the fabulous Orla Kiely, lovely!
