Seize the day...

Warm, autumn days are hard to beat.

Saturday was pretty perfect. The day was well and truly seized and packed out with all manner of loveliness......croissants for breakfast, an unexpected table top sale, a long cliff top walk from Saltburn to Skinningrove, a flask of hot chocolate with Bailey's and pieces of wedding cake, browsing at the farmers market, a quick charity shop rummage, and fish and chips before heading home. 



 


Having lived in Sheffield for most of my life, I can't quite believe I now live close enough to the sea to be able to just go there on a whim. It's always such a treat!

Little white birds for our wedding

I've been collecting ceramic birds from charity shops for about six months now. The plan is to use them to decorate the tables at our wedding in June. I wanted them to be 


a) detailed enough to look quite realistic 
b) of the right proportions to fit into a small glass dome 
c) less than £3 


Today I sprayed them all white. 




















So, my first ever Folksy Friday post is inspired by these six little birds. I hope it leaves you feeling chirpy!
