Painting - but not the type I like!

I awaited the 8th of July with some trepidation, this was the day that my new shed was being delivered.  The crew arrived at 10.30am and it took until 1.30pm to offload it all.  I have never seen so much wood outside of a forest.

Come Thursday, the shed had been erected, now the painting could commence.  Since that Thursday, until 25 July, not a day has passed by without us painting either the inside or the outside of this oversized structure.  Can you tell I'm falling out of love with it already, but I have to keep reminding myself that it will all be worth it.  A studio space has been long awaited.


The reason we didn't do any painting on 25 July, was that we went to The RHS Flower Show at Tatton Park, Knutsford.  We haven't been to this show for some time as the entrance price has just kept increasing, but I was really lucky as I won 2 tickets.

We had a lovely day and we'd made a list of goodies to get, but why is it that you always get a lot of things but not the ones on your list.

A couple of shots of 2 lovely gardens on show.




All the gardens we saw were lovely and the plants for sale were many and varied.  We did buy a lovely rose called 'Hot Chocolate' and 2 Hydrangeas.

That's it for now, the paint brush awaits!!
