Beginning of the hot weather!

A  new peony flower that was broken. I bought it last year and it has already some flowers.

From one pink to another!
Following the outside of our home for those who are new I show you this small downstairs bedroom. I did it myself painting and wallpaper ( when I was able to do it. I wish I could do again!)
This was our daughter’s bed and desk. Near the desk there are some of my craft items.

View from the room.

 I nearly painted and did wallpaper in all our rooms by myself.( some  years ago)

I had to test the stove yesterday with doors open because it is new and it’s better to do it in spring or summer.
In the evening I closed doors and windows and I could reach 22 C degrees, which is good considering that we have an open staircase. I had a terrible headache as they used a very noisy tool to take some bricks out of the fireplace to get the pipe into the chimney, but I slept well and feel better this morning!
Today, I must do  grocery shopping and tomorrow we have to do the terrace cleanup but as it will be hot it will be nice to use fresh water. It will take us the whole day!

So I wish you a nice weekend! Ours will be hot 30C!

    I love seeing your home. The bedroom is very pretty.

  2. Hello Catherine, If a flower falls from somewhere, I always save it and put it in water so that it can live longer. I have found flowers that have fallen on the sidewalk on the street several times, and I have brought them home too.
    You are like a master, painting and wallpapering. I pay someone to do the same in my apartment.
    It's good that you were able to sleep at night with your headache gone. When they renovated my apartment, they also drilled concrete. Ahhh, what a sound it made!
    Monday is a holiday here too, the shops will be closed, so I should go shopping tomorrow. Perhaps I do not have to go anywhere, because I have everything I need at home until Tuesday. I'm still thinking about it.
    I don't feel like going out, the temperature will be over 30C here too. It's not good for me in May when it's so warm.
    Hugs. Éva

  3. You did a beautiful job on that bedroom. Looks like a girl - very delicate. You are having some major work done - it will be worth it in the end but hard to go through.
