Bless me Blogisphere for I have sinned....

....It's been 11 days since my last post....These are my sins....I have failed on too many days to count to keep up with my FAVE blogs....My inbox is overflowing with unread emails & I have been out in the Hard Rubbish without my camera.....!!

Do you think there is any hope for me....??  :o)

I know I've been promising for some time dear Junk Friends that my US posts are coming alas, I have quite a bit on the go at the moment & I don't want to post just for the sake of posting....My time in the US & the Friends I met up with are VERY special to me & I need to give those posts the attention they deserve....!!

I'm ALSO getting ready for my 100th post which I'll be celebrating with Gina from the WONDERFUL Junk In My Trunk blog....Gina & I have been FINE TUNING a WONDERFUL GIVEAWAY that will leave you all GOBSMACKED so please don't give up on me yet....At least hang in there until you've cast your entries....hahahahaha....!

Now remember when I posted about my GORGEOUS Friend Sue from Montreux some time ago....Sue had not long returned from France with a container of FRENCH GOODNESS & I was keen to show you all her Treasures....Well here is the second instalment....!!


There is just something SO YUMMY about these neutral tones....
....Seriously....SERIOUSLY YUMMY....!
Three of my FAVE words....Rusty French metal....hahahahaha
Petite oui....?
....hmmmmm....I have a bunch of these in the garden though they just don't look as GOOD as these pots....!
Oh merci....!!!
Chippy white French PERFECTION....!!
*** sigh ***
Mr SVJ wanted to buy me this AWESOME galvinised bin but I declined....I KNOW....What was I THINKIN'....????
Shutter L-O-V-E....
Be still my RAPIDLY beating heart...
How DIVINE do these pages look....

I hope you've enjoyed these pics....I promise I'll be back REAL soon....Now I'm off to CATCH up on my FAVE BLOGS & my emails....!

Wherever you are I hope your week has been filled with Treasure....!

Cheers for now,
Tamarah :o)

  3. Don't worry about being a sinner, you're not alone - I'm in that category too for I have not been visiting everyone as I should. Today I have made a promise to myself to make more time as it's something I really enjoy.
    Thanks for sharing the pics from your friend - love all the rustic French finishes. Look forward to your U.S. posts. Michelle

  5. Say 10 hail Mary's and we forgive you. I must say that chippy cabinet could find a home in my house. I love it!

    Hope things are good Tamarah!

  6. Wonderful photos. Loved it all!! It's funny how clean and new doesn't really appeal to me anymore....it's got to be rusty, crusty and chippy!
    Have a great day.

  7. Wait, wait, wait. Your husband wanted you to buy it and you didn't??? That, my dear, is a far graver sin. All the yumminess is divine!

  8. Hi Tamarah,

    All is forgiven. Welcome back to the Land of Blog. You had quite the whirlwind trip stateside and are probably not fully recovered from all the junk you found there! We call that a "junk hangover".

  22. Tamarah!!

    So glad you're back! You are way to hard on yourself, it sounds like you deserved a break, you are quite the busy woman:) The French finds are unbelievably fabulous. I want everything you have pictured. I so much want to go to France and buy up so many things...I will keep dreaming. I look forward to seeing more of your pictures from your trip to the US.

    Take care,

    ~Elisa

  23. Tis more important to keep digging in the "hard rubbish" than to be photographing it. And, you can always show us your amazing finds when you get them home! There, feel better now?

    Love the photos above and will patiently wait to hear more from you. :)
