Snapshots from the Cottage

I'm still pretty much flat on the sofa with the flu, but I did manage a few shots today.

these candlesticks were bought at the fleamarket. The smaller one I had from before, and the medium one I had one just like it. But I managed to burn it with a candle that I didnt blow out soon enough. Sigh. But luckily for me I found one just like it and another larger one. I painted them the same shade of aqua as the small one, distressed it and dirtied it with dark wood stain :) To make it look alittle more shabby. I LOVE them. I used to have three from before, but two candlesticks and one for a pillar candle. I just love this so much more!

pretty pink rose from my sister :) I love the shade. This photo is mostly here becuase I have been tweaking and making it look better in PS. And I think I might be getting better at it... allthough I wish I could afford some really good actions.

bought me a pear today, and it got plomped into the teapot... I just like how it looks for reason!

Well I am back to bed, with a hand full of tissues and hot tea!
