Well the day has certainly passed quickly - much of it was spent outdoors in the sun finishing up the last of the planting for the summer (well possibly), getting the hanging basket bracket up for the trailing begonia, and the wire on the wall for the climbers.
All that remains is for it to all take nicely to its new earthy home. :o)
The hot weather hasn't been so kind to my David Austin roses and they have been drooping a bit, however it has meant that any victims of the sun have been cut and brought into the cool of the lounge:
Otherwise I have been staying away from falling for more Elemis luxuries, although I finally succumbed in the late evening to one huge temptation... it was rude not to!
So I shall be looking forward to my goodies arriving this week.
Also I should post the card I made for today's Project of the Day over on the Banana Frog blog - I've had a bit of a busy Frog Blog weekend! ;o)
Paper, journaling card and sticker: October Afternoon
Stamps: Banana Frog - Hiya Chick! and Sentimental Style
Border punch: EK Success
Twine: Papertrey Ink
Other: Rock Candy Stickles
Now I need to go and have a soak to get rid of the layer of sunscreen and BBQ soot (not that I partook, just got caught down wind of a party) - and I have just the item - I managed to stock up on 3 bottles of the now discontinued Dream Boat Milk Bath from the Bodyshop in their in-store sale yesterday. £3 each and so worth it!
Nat that rose is gorgeous and the garden is looking great! Just seen the weather & you might get rain tonight to help the flowers settle in. You were brave going out in this heat? It was about 30 odd here yesterday with no breeze - hot even in the shade!!!!
