and patchwork brooches
He is the cutest darling teddy I have ever seen! I love him and my pretty and dainty hankie too!
And picking flowers in the recent and glorious sunshine and yes I do include Buttercups as flowers, the are so cute and cheery with their nodding yellow heads
Been doing a makeover on a large unit that I bought from our local charity warehouse, so far I have Annie Sloaned it in Old White, I need to wax it now, I'm also going to wallpaper the backing board with pretty floral wallpaper that I've bought on Ebay, hasn't arrived yet though, can't wait.
What have you been up to in May?

hello Rachel,
I'm a newish follower to your blog.
Its really naughty of you posting such good photos on your blog....those cakes look so delicious I am drooling. I also love those makes of yours ...I'm really going to have to find out how to make one of those brooches they are so delightful. I am a crochet addict so perhaps I can crochet one.

I love your new cabinet and 'oh' what a sweet little bunny, but of course your patchwork bits are so gorgeous.

Hello Rachel, just stumbled upon your blog and am so glad I did! Can't wait to see the transformation of the unit, it already looks 100% better. As for the buttercups, whenever I pick flowers from the garden I always look for buttercups as they are so pretty and really brighten up a bunch of blooms! Have a lovely day from your newest follower! Claire xxx

Hi Rachel,
Thank you for leaving comments. I enjoyed my time in your country very much!
Your cupboard looks great in white! I am considering painting the cupboard in my garden house in the colour 'Louis Blue' by Annie Sloan.
Your coffee walnut pie and banana cake look delicious!
Happy day.
