RE[vamped]

RE is one of the most amazing shops i have ever had to pleasure of visiting, located in Corbridge it sells all reclaimed goodies for the house and garden. 
After wondering round for about 2o minutes wanting EVERYTHING, i finally came back down to earth to collect the bits and bobs that i went in for [pictures coming soon].
As i was about to leave i spotted some old house keeping magazines from the 1950s and knew instantly how they could be of use to me. I've had some old wardrobe doors that i've been meaning to utilise for some time now, what better way to use them than to make some screens, onto which i pasted the pages of the magazines. 
The end result was pretty neat, have a peek at the pictures below :)




Summer Days

What with this divine weather we've been having of late, it would be silly not to enjoy it, so ruby blue took to the courtyard in order to soak up some rays and attract the passing public...expect much more of this if the sun continues to treat us.
