My Green Door

Been doing the usual things off the computer...work, reading, cooking,cleaning, decluttering the kitchen, wiping muddy dog feet, cleaning up the gardens, making a new cat door and painting outside trim white and the front door green....

It may not be the prettiest door, and it`s hidden with an old screen door I painted white, but I like it much better than the brown. It feels cottagey and will be having a plain white curtain, rather than that ecru lace one. Maybe it will hint at what`s inside eventually. Still the same in there for now. I haven`t even finished the couch yet. But maybe this weekend. So much to do. Want to get together with Jackie from Jacran Cottage too, one of these weekends. Look forward to that, just when...I don`t know yet!
The spring flowers are blooming. Not a lot of them, but what`s there is nice and looking better every day. And as you can see, the wood stumps for the cats are still there lol. It was like a hot day in summer this past weekend! Chilly now though, and we had a quick and very windy downpour. Good for the plants.....not so good for my Mum`s big trellis plant stand. The wind kept flipping it over and then upright again, smashing bits off. Almost like a small tornado here a few hours ago.

This is the new window in the frontroom. I stuck a glass of fake tulips on it. I felt an urge for something real too so , I dug up a spring flower and potted an ivy stem. The fake tulips actually look the best though. Hubby got the shelf for me to eventually put some real potted flowers and plants on. All the windows are being draped in plain white sheers hung from rings on wrought iron poles. Those are supposed to arrive this week. I`m excited....another small step forward to a hopefully nice room....
