I've Been Tweaking Again



Very few things that arrive to our cottage remain the same.  
I'm always tweaking something to better please my eye.  Case in
point ~ this lamp shade.  Too country for me, but it was a cheapie,
so I tweaked it.





Now it looks like this.




Much better.  I wonder if my hubby will notice it?
Probably not.

I am joining ~ 

and

Bentley ~ Momma has to put her foot up and put the ice bag 
back on her big toe.  It still hurts after I overturned the cast iron
boot scraper onto my toe last night while I was watering
the flowers.  Ouch!

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  7. Suan ~ first of all ~ OUCH ~~~!!!! Oh that just hurts thinking about it. I hope your toe is better. I've done that. We have a cast iron door stopper. They do NOT give when your toe hits it. I feel your pain. Go with flip flops for awhile (and slippers ;-) ) Your lamp shade is just darling. What a great makeover. Love tweaking little things ~ try and stay off your toe ~
