Miscellaneous

[amberdreams]

Isn't miscellaneous a lovely word? Anyhow, my mini knight has arrived. He seems to be made out of ceramic and is eminently breakable as well as rather small. Painting a mock up of my design is definitely going to be challenging!

And Mum posted a photo of her garden looking flipping glorious in it's autumn colours, so I thought I'd share it with you chaps. Here you have it, a typical English country garden. Except it's in a town, but whatever.

The pic is taken from her computer room and the garden reaches as far as those big trees in the distance, past that trellis on the left hand side. It's ridiculously long and she does a fine job with it. At eighty two this year I think it's (as they say in Suffolk) hella impressive.

Good luck on painting your little knight; that's going to be a fingertip fiddly job!

Your Mum's garden is beautiful, she really has got green fingers :)

Beautiful! I have a fantasy that I'll do something like that, but it's a lie, lie, lie. Lovely work.

Whoa, you're gonna need a steady hand with the knight! But you being shortlisted is seriously awesome! \o/

The garden looks absolutely wonderful (and big). <3

That is a teeny knight. I wouldn't know where to begin...small brush for sure. 8-)

Your Mum's garden is truly gorgeous. It looks to be the kind of garden that has something of interest and color all year round. So lovely.

Wow, that's a tiny model! Surely that's too tiny to give an accurate idea of what it will look like fully painted?! That's a beautiful garden, and Mum goes a great job at looking after all that - it's massive!
