Hi everyone, it’s time for this week’s Sunday Sevens, a little ode to randomness, those bits that don’t merit a whole post. For info about Sunday Sevens, please pop in to see the creator, Natalie, over at Threads & Bobbins. There are no real rules, just sharing of seven(ish) pictures.
It’s been a busy week, but not a picture-taking one, so I’ve little to share. But…share I will with what there is.
WEATHER
Just because I haven’t posted a cloud scene in a couple of Sundays….and because the beauty of a cloudy, sunny sky never fails to enthrall me.
FABRIC
Made my choice of fabric for my new skirt, lovely heavyweight cranberry….still playing with the chiffon embellishments.
FALL CLEANING
What is better than freshly scrubbed windows, ready for nice clean curtains to go back up.
ON THE PORCH
My old rattan porch chairs needed a bit of touching up….and new cushions! They are not as pinkish as they look in this photo. And oh so comfy now.
SALT AND PEPPER
What’s to say? They are just cute. And a little change-up from my usual cat pics.
WORDS OF WISDOM
Some bathrooms have no built-in storage, so plastic bins hold sundries. Placement of similarly packaged products is rather critical. For instance, if one is dressing in a hurry, one must be careful to grab the correct item with which to spray one’s hair. Don’t ask me how I know this.
So, be sure to pay attention to details, and have a great week, everyone!
I bet you smelled lovely though!

These are such interesting images – the comfy chairs, the gleeming windows, the bathroom products with their matt silver packaging, and the bluest, beautiful sky. Lovely and evocative of your lifestyle.

Thank you! It’s a lovely place to be, very happy.comfortable and vibrant. (till we’ve been knee deep in snow for weeks, that is)

Such gorgeous photographs. I love those clean windows (something I have avoided for far too many years) and that sky…. Such a sky!

Thank you! It does feel grand to have that big view opened up. I’ll need to keep this shot as a non-procrastination motivator when the time comes again 🙂

Haha! It was a funny moment. Even funnier after the fact. There just might have been some cursing at the time. But you can bet I keep those two canisters well separated now.

Your chairs look great! I love your beautiful cranberry fabric; what a perfect color for fall and winter. And I share your frustration with rushed mornings–I’m remembering a morning in which I threw on some clothes in a hurry (and in dim light) and only realized later that I’d put on a denim dress, black tights, and brown shoes. 😉

Thank you, the cushions are “beefed up” now so they are very comfy. Oh my goodness, I’m hoping you discovered your ensemble before you left the house? Why do these things never happen when we have plenty of time to spare?

Oh no, discovered it after I’d been out and about for a couple of hours. Happened to look down and WHOOPS. 😉

Oh dear! Mine was the one brown shoe and one black shoe escapade. About 1/4 inch heel difference, I kept wondering what felt so odd. Good grief. But we lived to tell the tales! 🙂

What a lovely photo of the sky! I am excited to see the finished skirt; I love the shade of the cloth you chose! I am intrigued to see how you will play around the chiffon embellishment.

Thank you! I’m off to the fabric store to add to the “embellishment pile” later this morning. Fingers crossed.

Loving the fabric on your porch chairs 🙂 It looks like a very cosy place to sit! I did laugh at the last picture – I bet you won’t make that mistake again 😀

Hi Natalie, I just logged on (to start my Sevens, which will be published tomorrow I promise)….and your note popped up before my very eyes. Never had that happen before. Thanks, the chairs are much nicer now (they were a bit bedraggled and “flat” before) and I hope to be enjoying for some time still before it gets too cold to be outdoors. And happy to report I’ve not made that mistake again….yet….haha.

Ha – I’ve not done mine yet, working on it now! I’ve been quite behind with things this last week :-0 I really like to see things given a spruce up – I’ve seen so many things thrown away when all they needed was new fabric – well done you for giving them a new lease of life 🙂
