These are the photos I took of my garden last night. Everything has grown and bloomed so much in just a few short weeks. I love it.
This is a couple of car boot finds - the sack, and the bread bin. I think with the sack I am going to stretch it over a wooden frame, and hang it on the garage wall to pretty it up. We are going to use the bread bin to hold coal for the bbq, and leave it where it is.
Another car boot find - I love this wooden box. Haven't got an idea for it yet, but I will find a use. It looks good just as it is. Will deffo be on the lookout for more of these.
My painted table - doesn't it look a million miles better than before. The directors chairs and the smaller table need their final coat.
It's really coming on, and I'm so proud of it. I just feel like I'm never at home to enjoy it! Yesterday I went to the beach with my friends, and that was great fun. Living where we do, it's a bit of a trek to get to a beach, any beach! I think the nearest is Hunstanton. Yesterday we went to Wells Next The Sea, and it was gorgeous.
Today I am having dinner with my family, and then am going to the towns Highland Gathering with my friends - an annual event in my home town, to celebrate the Scottish traditions. I live in the midlands, and my town has strong links with Scotland, as in the 1930's a lot of Scots moved to the (then village) to get employment at the Steel Works. My father moved here with his family as a small boy, and so every year the town celebrates with Highland activities :)
Of course, it's also a good way to chill with friends in the sunshine and have some drinks, listening to live music by local bands, and then in early evening go on a few fun fair rides (the Twister and the Waltzers to name a few) half swallied and make yourself sick :)
And to add further to my good mood, I've got a new Joules dress to wear, one that I wanted all summer but never got round to buying, and then I managed to get it in the sale almost half price!
Happy Days! These really are.

I also love photography even though I am not really good at it. I always get my digicam and try to take photos of my garden and some flowers inside the house. But can't really do it better. LOL. Thanks for sharing these photos any ways.
Really love your photos! Nice shots on there especially the yellow sunflower. The chair and the table are really perfect on summer outings! I also have flip up tables and a big umbrella. It is perfect when ever we go on beach. Love the summer!
