Hello Friends.

Before I began my painting kitchen cabinets, I made this Mother of pearl vintage buttons heart.

A vintage vase with snowdrops and Hellebores from the garden.

I had a lot of Hellebores but with this last Summer very hot weather a lot of them died despite the constant watering.

 Here is one of my favorite!

Today, last day of sun, tomorrow

 it will be grey and rainy, but we need  rain ☔️ we are in Normandy !

I painted half of the cabinets ( the lower part is done) 

Today the top ones must be done. I hope to finish by the end of the week.

Tomorrow  I will have a rest and have my hair cut

😮‍💨 

« Spring cleaning! »  I love books about granny’s recipes.

Cleaning, washing and cooking I had these books for many years, but I always find new tips in them.

They are up to date with the ecological movement nowadays.

The real « Savon de Marseille » is very useful in Spring cleaning! This is the real one, the real recipe.

I remember using this  carpet beater to clean the carpets  and take the dust off. We also cleaned the copper pans

And the ought to be very shiny!

I have already cleaned the windows, took the spider webs off the beams ( all the time!)

I will have the carpets cleaned, but later in Spring.

Did you start your Spring cleaning yet?
