The things you do for love..!!!

Well its the night before my holiday, I have tons and tons of things to do, so what do I end up doing...?? Painting in Bezzie Su's lounge. Yes you heard me correct. I was invited round for our customary pratting around, drinking tea and putting the world to rights. She mentioned that the her family where celebrating Christmas Day tomorrow.??????? Quite normal for her. They are going to buy pressies for each other and have a fun Christmas Day. I made the mistake of asking if she was putting a tree up. Jokingly I said I would paint her some of my Blonde Moment trees on the walls. Well before I knew it, there I was paintbrush in hand. So here we go step by step to transforming your living room into a grotto. Please excuse the rough state of me, remember I only popped in for a cuppa and some rhubarb crumble.

Oh yes I still use my trusty Adirondack paint dabbers, even on walls.

Filling in the design.
Maybe I should have worn my heels..!!

There are four trees, one for each of them but of course I had to have five stars, lol.

Cheeky monkey Georgia...

The outlining gives the finishing touch.


Love to add the little details, see I even need to doodle on walls.

There you go ....the finished article...

I think shes pleased, don't you..??

Do we look like little elves..??

That's me about done. I just love it though..


So here I am, its 2.25am and I am blogging whilst watching back to back Project Runway and eating After Eights. I haven't prepared or packed a thing yet, still..!!! Hilarious.. I am having to work really hard at not allowing myself to start painting trees on my own wall. Maybe when I get back, yayy.
Enjoy xx
