Everything But Tiling...

Yet again the weeks have slipped by and we seem to have found many many excused for not starting the bathroom tiling! From Richards bad back (recovering after laying the bathroom floor and lifting very heavy loos, sinks & various bath tubs around) to art work to produce, cars to fix and in my case a new online shop to set up and another craft show to prep for! 
We have managed to get some of the patching up done, so fingers crossed we might be able to make a start tiling next week at some point, I really hope so as it will really start to make a difference to how the bathroom looks...heres  last Saturday acomplishments

Of course we had to wait to make sure its totally dry before sticking anything else over the top, god DIY is so bloody long winded!

Rich has spent a lot of time this last week trying to sort his car out after if failed its MOT nearly 3 weeks ago, after paying out to have some rather large holes in the floor welded up he sent it in for another MOT only to have it fail again on a totally different problem that the first garage hadn't pick up on! Grrr, so frustrating!

At least he's still smiling...just.

I've also been busy building a new on line shop selling my little creations, I've joined notonthehighstreet.com which I'm really excited about....

I also have a craft show up in Shropshire this weekend so I've pretty much been chained to my desk cutting and sewing like crazy.

As we've been so busy I haven't had time for much junk shop hunting, I have been trying not to spend to much either (I always forget how bloody expensive tiles work out at!) but I did pick up a few bits that I just couldn't resist...

Three little ramekins for 50p each.

Two dinner plates at 25p each.

And lastly a really cool 50s stool I found on eBay for £12, I love the pattern on the seat.

It has also been kitten approved...

Hopefully we'll make so more progress on the house front soon!
