my place and yours

I'm joining Vic and all the others in My Place and Yours.

This week it is my favourite piece of clothing.

Now that I'm really old I'm not that interested in clothes.

If anyone gave me free rein to go anywhere clothes shopping

I would always still end up in Vinnies. 

Racks and racks of all the same clothes that are in the

trendy shops just bore me to tears .

Honestly I would rather poke sticks in my eyes

than to have to try stuff on in those places.

All that being said as the photo above shows

I did have a little flick through my wedding dress collection

this morning looking for something to show you.

I have such a nice assortment just in case I get

married again one day .

I have no plans at all to leave my beautiful husband

but you just can't ever be too prepared .

I'm sorry I couldn't pick just one stunner to show you.

So it looks like I just have to sit this one out

but you can still play , I'm just too comfortable

in my pink crocs and grey trackies to move anywhere.

my place and yours

I was a bit hesitant to join in with my place and yours 

this week as the meme is where I sleep .

I didn't want anyone to feel jealous seeing my

 beautiful and scarily tidy bedroom.

So I visited where Red Dog sleeps .

She gave me a wink and said "just go for it!"

I still wasn't quite sure so I wandered around the yard

and then I made my decision .

Yes I will show you the rest of my gorgeous bedroom .

But when I got there the old cat was asleep on

my unmade bed and I didn't want to disturb him .

I hate to disappoint you but the first photo

is not really my bedroom but I can dream .

Hop over to link up here if you'd like to play along .

my place and yours

My place and yours this week is your favourite pincushion.

My favourite pincushion was originally a double layer 

sponge cake with a lovely embroidered doily

for the icing and beaded trim.

One day I was desperate for some stuffing and ripped the

bottom layer apart to pinch the filling.

So now I have just the top layer sitting in my beautiful

green glass bowl beside my sewing machine.

I really need a big pincushion as I often don't look

when I'm throwing pins about and this way I have

a better chance of some landing where they should.

Thanks for the chance to play Vic .

Hooray Vic has brought back My Place and Yours !

I was so very excited to join in with this weeks meme

which is ~ on your shelf .

In fact I was so excited I spent the whole morning

washing and shining and dusting my bottle

collection that is on my shelf in my kitchen.

Just to prove it the photo below is how my bottles

looked before all my dusting and cleaning and washing .

What ! Exactly the same photo !

I really am excited to join in but not enough

to clean all these on a Sunday .

Join in and show us what is on your shelf .
