Firstly, I would like to thank you for all the positive and helpful comments from my last post. Yes, it was my thyroid that I thought was not right and my blood test came back on the low side of 'normal' so my Doctor still referred me to the Specialist. It was at that appointment that they felt it wasn't 'abnormal' enough so I have been told that there is nothing they can do. So there we go..
Now onto some nice stuff - have you noticed anything a little bit different? {Hint..there are 2 things} ..first thing is that I have found another firescreen; this time at Totnes 3 weeks ago. It is unpainted at the moment as I can't decide (again) what colour. The other one is in the dining-room and looks great there.
Second difference - I've put up more fairy lights, this time on our mantel and mirror. I wanted to show you the inspiration behind my action but I can't find the article. The other week I found in one of my Christmas Magazines (from last year...yeah I'm still not through them all and it's nearly time [yay] for this year's batch!) an article about 2 of my favourite ladies in front of their fireplaces. They were Atlanta Bartlett and Sam McKechnie of The Magpie & the Wardrobe and Sam's mantel was adorned with fairy lights. So, I followed her lead and thought why not?
Yes, why not indeed; and may I encourage you to do the same and let us head into autumn with a little bit of sparkle.
