oh i do like to be beside the seaside........

..oh i do love to be beside the sea!
we are so lucky to have a hideaway home in Lyme...
..we run there whenever we can...
..to relax, recharge, and snuffle for treasures.....
...there's something so therapeutic about being by the sea....and saturday was such a glorious day...
..i just had to put on my 'new'
vintage Liberty print blouse....i bought it in a local charity shop 
to use as crafting fabric....
..but once i'd got it home and found that it fitted, the scissors were swiftly put away! 
these are the street lights along the promenade...
it is definitely a stylish place full of artistic, creative people and shops......!
.....this little bambi was one of my squirrel finds yesterday..
i couldn't resist those big eyes..
..the gorgeous card is by 'dicky bird' designed by my talented cousin .....you must visit
her site....
squirelling is definitely in the genes!

confused lambs....


you'd think it was springtime...
the sun is shining and my roses are in bloom again!? 
you can't blame the lambs for being confused......

old and new

these cute vintage salad servers look perfect with my GreenGate 'Fay Red' china.
I normally find clowns a bit scary but these are just adorable.

animal hospital

i can't resist a hopeless case with a helpless face.....

...the more squished and sorry they look the more i feel the need to rescue them........ 
....a happy bear with a new lease of life (with me!)
