Rock a billie chick

Aimee was learning to play the violin through the school.

The teacher left a few months ago and hasn't been replaced

She loves music so the answer was to pick another instrument

Her mum managed to find a local teacher of the keyboard guitar and drums

She has chosen the drums

This is her at week six

She rocks does our girl

Marvel Boy

Our grandson loves superheroes

His grandad went to help create a bedroom for a superhero lover

Mum and Dad painted the room yesterday

Mum sourced the wall art on internet

Grandad and Dad put it up today

Mum dressed the room with new duvet cover curtains lampshade

and another couple of other pieces of wall art

The result is one happy chappie who can hardly wait to go to bed

Let there be light!

I love old fashioned standard lamps.

Every home in the fifties and sixties seemed to have one.

Problem :- hubbie not so keen

A trip to Country Affair Kinross last weekend I spied one in the

corner, it was white with bumble bees painted on it with a mis- matched shade

Colin's face was a picture when I returned to the car with it.

Asked him to trust me and so another bit of recycling took place.

I forgot to take picture of the stand before I painted it

I striped the lampshade

Got lovely material at Rejects

Hey presto

I am delighted with it and looks great in the livingroom

The best bit Hubbie likes it too
