as twenty ten is my year for taking risks i've been having a 'spring fling' inside of Mossy Shed...
"oh Tif, how simply risque of you!" i hear you cry
why yes dearest readers, i don't think it gets more risky than a 'spring fling' in the midst of winter.
in fact if i carry on at this rate i may very well become known as 'Little Miss Risk Taker of 2010' and that would be quite something i feel.
my risk taking 'spring fling' all started late on thursday, when a retro tablecloth i purchased from Etsy arrived, a wonderful blue flower and fruity little number.
little pops of lovely turquoise amongst the navy and green.
as soon as i unwrapped the little sweetie,
it got
my heart 'a racing'
and
my fingers 'an itching'
to make something out of it's loveliness...
so with a snip and a snippity snip, i got to work.
several snippity snips later, along with another vintage tablecloth and some white linens, i had some very springy looking curtains for my studio window and might i add some very hungry occupants in the shed, but i couldn't let feeding the hordes get in the way of my creative juices flowing...
it is times like these that the microwave and mac 'n' cheese were invented for.
but that's not all... no sirree, for i continued my 'spring fling' with a little thrifty find who was looking for a new home when i found her lurking on the shelves of despair...
my lovely mirror is now sporting her 'spring coat' of sunshine yellow and has done quite the most peachy job of giving a little corner some false sense of 'Spring'.
so quite simply put dearest readers, i think we all need to have a 'spring fling' in our little nests, helping banish those winter blues and adding a little bit of sunshine in our days.
of course you lovely lot in Australia and other exotic foreign climes probably aren't looking to add a 'spring fling' to your dwellings but that's okay, i quite understand and am not in the least bit upset if you choose not to 'spring fling' with me...
she is thanking you once again for humoring her shameless ways ~ Tif
