Aren't these a pretty colour?

Here's the card I made up for TP

Recognise the picture?

Yes, it's the Valentine's morning of my dreams, posted when I was BEDROOM DREAMING, HERE.

I kinda thought I wouldn't awake transported to that dream bedroom and to the flowers and that breakfast in bed ...

So here's one I prepared earlier!

Yes, I prepped up flowers and Danish pastries (TP has a very sweet morning tooth!) yesterday when TP was out.

I hid the flowers and pastries in the bedroom next door, then sneaked out for them whilst TP made the early morning coffee.

And the coffee was certainly early (pensioner early!)

Bertie the cat was super excited this morning, perhaps because Valentine's, or Catentine's, is a big thing in Cat World*.  

So by 6.21 a.m. we succumbed to his exhuberance and coffee was a tad earlier the normal.

(*Actually TP just thought Bertie wanted his breakfast and as loving and romantic as Bertie is, I rather suspect TP is right on this one.)

But this is a chance to show you my grey wall.  

From the moment it was finished and everything was put back in place, we've been  asking ourselves kicking ourselves as to why we didn't paint it darker sooner.   Everything comes alive and looks sort of richer and classier against the dark grey backdrop - the brass wall lights and sockets, the painting ... 

and the old brass bedstead! (The little hanging pouches are there in an attempt to minimise the rattling). 

Since I first saw the bedstead showcased by the grey I have been mumbling that it looks really pretty now and maybe we don't need a whizzy new bed after all.  

You can imagine how this is going down in the Pout household ...!!!

It's now a bedroom for for a pussycat.

A la perchoine,

Mary x 💝.
