A few piccies :o)

Last weekend we visited dear Daughter and had a lovely surprise - the little garden that was really overgrown and quite tatty when she moved in (in April), and we knew she had done a LOT of clearing and planting but it looks SO lovely now....(sorry, no before shots)  we're really proud of her!
(Do please click on the pictures to expand them....)

This is the view from the lounge window - a few if you may recognise the goblets ;o)

 then, looking back up towards the window - kitchen door on the right

 Closer to the bottom border...you couldn't see ANY fencing or border at all, it was completely choked in ivy and bindweed.  In fact the border came as a surprise :o)  Pretty lanterns dotted down the fences.

And along to the left of the border - can't imagine where Vicky got the love of blue!

 

This is the view below the kitchen window and looking over to neighbours gardens.  It is a Victorian terrace and there is an entry passage to every four houses, so they are linked by a gate - just on the right edge of the photo.  

She's even got a few potato plants - her first home grown veggies :o)

There is also lots of solar powered lights dotted about that comeinto their own in the evening.

Oops, I nearly forgot the crafts bit....Vicky makes beautiful jewellery - here's her latest creations

It's made from glass beads, and is REALLY beautiful

 In close up, and now the earrings...

She's made them for herself - the beads alone cost £35.

Clever gal eh?

Hope your weekend is restful and enjoyable :o)

Best Wishes
