the orange room

 The neighbour was throwing this old pantry out.....i saw potential!!!

 Now that the weather has warmed up i have a choice paint or garden...today i chose painting.
This is the stash room before...orange!!!  UGH!!

 I painted the walls turquoise and white....the old cd rack has a new job as my lace holder.

and some new curtains to finish the room....ahhhh all done.

The bike

My new bike, was given to me, she needed new tubes and tyres, dang they cost me $70!!

The last time i rode a bike was with my daughter on the back in her baby seat. She is now 23!!

Can I still do it?  Oh boy i was  wobbly to start with but made it up the road followed by  a magpie...great!! lol it was hard going, and yes im very sore, so the bike now sits under the verandah, waiting for my next ride, who knows when lolol

Ah Foxs Lane you've done it again!!

We've just gone through the biggest mouse plague known to man, woman and erm ME!
Ive never had to deal with this being the city slicker that i was!
All hell broke loose when i found they had been having a parteee in my stash room, what a nightmare, everything had to be washed.  Ten loads of washing and still counting..Not happy!!
Time to cull and pack into plastic tubs UGH!!
I couldnt part with anything, so thanks to http://foxslane.blogspot.com/ (yep i did copy your idea sorry, hope you dont mind)...the sewing room is now spotless full of "loverly" plastic tubs not! and ive managed to cull quite a bit by making the doona cover.
As if the ric rac wasnt enough!!....thanks for the motivation...I hope you have an awesome trip full of beautiful memories...Di

The ugly dresser

 Life is bliss at the Hippy Farm. This old girl needed a makeover, so after i painted the ceiling and one wall i tackled her. She was originally brown YUK!!

                                            What a nightmare, it took 3 coats.

          And i covered the two shelves and inside the cupboards with black and white tiles.

This lady was an original part of the  kitchen... at least 50 years old.....she will be good for another 50 now!!

 Our Hippy Farm when it was the post office, it had 3 rooms, we now have 8, which have been added during the years.
