It's been a while since my last post (about six months to be completely honest!) but now that the warmer weather has returned so have I!
I've had a very busy winter working on the renovations of our town house in Cognac with my husband Spike and building the stock levels back up for my Etsy Shop after a very busy Christmas period.
The glorious weather has made us concentrate on the courtyard of our house and to my absolute joy we have installed a second hand fountain that I found online a few months back. There's still so much to do but having planted up the flower beds it's a good start (although our puss 'Raoul' seems determined to squash my endeavours).
This May Day weekend (Fête du Travail) we had a choice of so many flea markets in our region it was difficult to decide which to visit but eventually plumped for a brocante held in the pretty town of Rochefort.

Still very much work in progress but Jakie doesn't seem to mind

I was delighted to come across some yarn bombing while we were there and long may this trend continue!
The bandstand near the flea market is simply charming
The sun was out and the flea market was full of interesting trucs that I snapped up and are soon to make an appearance in my shop.
An eclectic mix of trucs and so many bits and bobs to sift through
Here's just a small selection of my many buys from Rochefort that are waiting to be processed.
It's a tough job but someone's got to do it!
