The week has flown by.
Family were down staying nearby, and brought these exquisite flowers. I don't think I have seen such amazing coloured roses before.
A very beautiful sunrise the other morning, not terribly well photographed through my bedroom window.
Carpet fitters last night and this morning came to remove one carpet (the last of the previous owner) and bring in a lovely new one.
Furniture moved in and out by our extremely helpful family, who have sadly gone back to their Manchester home now..
Here's a bit of the sitting room, no longer floored in dull grey-green, but in fresh pale carpet...Sea Breeze by name, wonder why?!
I'm very happy with it. The room looks lighter and brighter.
How pretty! Very "by the sea" and fitting! I love the smell of new carpet. Thank you for the birthday wish!
ReplyDeleteDear Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteYour carpet is lovely! The feeling that all the 'old' carpet is gone, must be good too. Enjoy!
And yes, I am so happy with our garden!!!
Love, Carolien
Very nice. Glad you had some good help, too.

lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour house looks so lovely all the time, and now what a nice uplifting change.
ReplyDeleteMany beautiful things in this post - the rose colour is so rich, the carpet so lovely and pale, and the sunrise a wonderful sight to see from a bedroom window.
ReplyDeletelovely carpet, and a really comfy welcoming chair! it looks like a room you will spend a lot of time in, relaxing.
ReplyDeleteThe name itself would have made me choose this carpet!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, I am glad that you had help with the carpet switcheroo, and want to tell you that the new carpet looks grand. Great choice.

A lovely choice of carpet, Elizabeth, which really lightens the room (it's pretty obvious you don't have a dog!) I have wooden floors and rugs, apart from my bedroom, which is carpeted.
ReplyDeleteI love those roses! I've also seen some wonderful sunsets and sunrises this month; autumn has so much warm colour, doesn't it?
I think I see some of the color of those roses in the sunrise, both are so beautiful! Yay for new carpet, it certainly looks lovely.
ReplyDeletea lovely sunrise...what a gorgeous blessing!
