Pretty special....

 I have discovered the marvels of 'Annie Sloan' paint . I know I'm probably very late to this discovery, I had heard of the paint through bloggers posts but was hesitant-its AMAZING!!
I painted this metal table and chairs set, as it had a rust and was looking too shabby. I also wanted to see how it performed outside. I can report that sine all the downpours of the last few days, it has remained spotless and pristine!!

Love the colour of these decorative chaps!


These scales I purchased a short time ago and cannot part with them.

Berries, grasses and seedheads...

 Its that time of year, low light streaming through. The garden goes all tatty. Early morning mists sit on seed heads, glistening in the morning sun.

 Tilly
 Poke weed



 Stipa grass- grasses come into their own this time of year.
