When I first got to work this morning the sun was streaming into the nursery. I loved the way the table and chairs were lit up.
This is the step ladder I hoiked out of the skip on Sunday. It is unusual because it has a tall handle-like a library step I think. It was a struggle to get it in the car-I should have walked-it was only just down the road! Skip diving-such fun! I have sanded the step and am busy painting then distressing it. Then I have to find somewhere for it to go. Hmmm.
Here are the giveaway things-please leave a comment if you have not already and are at all interested in any of the individual items. Please see the post below for details. I have got two birds. At the moment they are plain, but if you are drawn for a bird I can do a face on it if you would like. There is also a facsimile copy of Jackie magazine from 1975. If you are about my age it is a nostalgic read. Can you see the tiny book? It is on the Secret Garden book-so tiny.I will do the draw on Saturday.

That step ladder is a fantastic find - and looks very handy. I don't think we have skips around here - if they are anything like a car boot sale (but free) they sound like I might very well like them very much! (PS I entered your giveaway but on the post below.)

Well, if you can find me somewhere along the way, I would so love to be considered for the tee tiny book. LOL.
But anything will do, truly. And if not even, then, hey diddle dee, an artist's life for me!
I love the photos here, Sarah. The orange and yellow in the sunshine just pops out at us, doesni't it? And that stepladder is -- well, I have never seen anything like it, really. ;)
Take care and have a great great week.

I love the step ladder! Great find!
I used to love the peace and silence of the morning classroom before the hurly-burly of the day started.
Fabulous ladder - I've never tried skip-diving but I know people find wonderful things in them.
I love the way you play with light in your pictures!
Please count me in for the giveaway! I would even love it if you sent me an envelope with a slip of paper saying 'hi'!
I want that stepladder! I used to be fearless up ladders until I almost fell over the 3rd storey bannister while painting a ceiling (I got my foot stuck, fortunately).The handle would have been very useful...
Sarah, I love you.
Thank you for being here for me.
Love Renee xoxo
Oooo, Jackie!!!!
(thanks for the vote of confidence with the red, blue & white. I wondered if the same mental hurdle exists for brits, french, aussies, etc.)
