Playing For You From Our Scented Cottage..

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

What I'm Up To...


Some of you have been wondering what I've been up to the past few days as I've been away from my blog. I'm sorry to have worried you!

We have been giving the cottage kitchen a bit of a much needed makeover and I have been painting. It's a very small space so one would think it would be a chore done quickly...but nooooo! The wall space is such that paint rollers are unable to be used so I have been toiling away with a paintbrush. That wouldn't be so labor intensive if the walls didn't need a second coat of paint, but they do, so on and on I go with my little brush and my bucket of paint. Couple that with having to move rather large appliances and we are exhausted. Today should be the last day of painting and not a moment to soon...I've grown weary and my back needs a bit of a rest. The kitchen will be fresh, clean and ready for spring.

What projects have you busy around your cottage?

It definitely sounds like a lot of work, but I'm sure the results will make you feel like it was well worth it. Good luck finishing up!

Well.... I really need to paint an upstairs bedroom. I even have the paint but I need the ambition!! Maybe when warmer weather gets here I will find it!
Have a Wonderful Day!!

Would love to see it when you are done. We have been remaking furniture and redecorating our home for the last year. I am almost done. I am so tired of painting myself and why do they they say one coat coverage. I still have not found a paint that actually does that. HA! HA!

Stop by again soon!
