A lovely little nest in wick

What a mad day

I found this lovely blog cupcakesathome and we life in the same village in the middle of no where in Scotland !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just been reading her blog (will give full blog details when i know its ok ...has amazing shop too!!!) all good i feel ...

I have just finished reading the "moving house stage" spot on to how i feel mess everywhere animals not looking impressed and vintage finds stuck at the bottom of a cardboard box of which you cant touch,with before and after photos of what dressers should look like CRAZY ....

least when i buy a vintage find and can pop over to hers and say what do you think!!!! feel much better about going now as i know there's someone who gets excited,frustrated like me over interiors we are planning a dog walk on the beach how great  x x x x x x x x

next on the plan is find out when a cath kidston sales on in are nearest town (i say near more like 4 hrs drive away and we both have land rovers so make that 5-6 hrs he he he

Cant wait to meet the lovely lady x

Whats your style

chic,battered,old,vintage,one of designs,cath kidston (far to much) things that smell of old people (husbands talk tut tut ) and any thing from flea markets and car boots

1950<1960s etc thats great and thing with gloss paint or paint falling of it thats good to,love humour in design thats the one issue i have with the whole Argos,cargo thing ..ikea is different its don't know just more simple and easier to make it what you want to ..

hate hate hate clean lines beige and no colour no photos or drawings...i have a great drawing of a horse my husbands best mate did he cant draw and has the child like way of doing it ..(never have him in your pictionary) and this is framed its fab everyone says how great it is now you cant buy this in john lewis...

what a day.......

No heating, had to have a new kitchen,the walls are to wet to paint and no Cath kidston delivery either ......

my poor Craig Ive never seen him so stressed bless him.In wick threes no great kitchen outlets like here in cheltenham only howdens so Craig has chosen the stonoway kitchen ( have not looked yet at the pictures but Craig has great taste so not stressed yet...

mother in law (the best ever ) brought me dinner down chips chicken and onion rings yum yum they are cooking at the moment I'm a really bad cook so it might still not go to plan, sat with a large cold glass of wine chilling and dreaming of sleep as both kids have the cold from hell so i had no sleep at all last night,

finished the chairs and tables i brought for £35 they look fab so i will post tomorrow as son as i get to tescos (digi camera not working at all!!!) so the whole bluetooth thing to a Kodak kiosk ( god help me) takes ages so kids will love me x x

My pantry 2

This is my pantry does not look much at the moment i just want to start. the walls are going to be sugar pink by cath kidston and the shelving I'm thinking apple green again by cath kidston, the butler sink i am leaving where it is. I have Brought a pink chandelier for the room (ott i know but thats mexxx) and handmade black and pink Sanderson curtains in a large rose print for the window dressing.

i have brought tescos out of there cheap jam..... you ask why STORAGE of course 18pence a jar bargain i feel a jar for large nails,small nails,washing tables I'm going to do a another page for the list that needs to put in order.......

the flooring is black caithness slabs they really shine when clean so i Will smell like flash bleach for a long long time i feel  yawn I'm so tired I'm going to head of to bed now sweet dreams love Katie x

this is outside my pantry its looks so rough but wait when its all painted white and has baby blue doors yeah x with lots of flowers outside in pots and a hand made table and chairs to sit out on cant wait going to bed now i have loads of photos for tomorrow have what we and Claire got from bista and my painting chairs ideas etc x

My pantry

I'm sooooooo over the Moon about my pantry everything is going to look amazing i just want to get started..... Craig's left now to go Scotland to paint,carpet and title before me and the kids get up there...

So when the cats away the mice will play.... Painting!! i have started to paint all my old wicker Lloyd loom chairs in cath kidston paints today with oilcloth covers and to top it off i am making oilcloth cushions..... to go on the bench's etc.

oilcloth may be odd to some people in the cushion form but not to me...with two kids its just a flash wipe them down job.. i had fabric ones before and they went to muck with spag bol being thrown everywhere and a bit of muller light yogurt its all good through.

went shopping with Clair to bista brought far to much cath kidston we could just fit it in Claire's Audi estate good though picture to follow tomorrow

Claire used to life in a house in sedgeberrow and it was hit badly by the floods and she lost everything so she has had to start again and what a place to start .

Are new start in wick

Only 2 weeks to go till the move, my once lovely sugar coloured, cath kidston cladded, vintage find heaven has now been turned in to brown cardboard city..

its so upsetting to see it all packed away and hidden I'm feeling quite low as i like my nice things around me at all times.

i like keeping a tidy house but its hard with just piles of box's and box's around you very sad and grey (well brown)

going shopping tomorrow with my friend Claire to bista village this will be my last trip there for a long long time so thats sad as well ( i am a barrel of laughs tonight arnt i ???) Claire and me are friends through cath kidston we get each others parcels from the lady herself !! which is cool and now shes buying my house here no 88 so sad to leave but its time.
