This is the pic of where we are getting old paint off walls of our little courtyard. We have bought a small table for 2 from the hell that is IKEA. On this is the French glassholder awaiting its new old battered look!
The old desk is a car boot find from several years ago and brightens up the area around the front door. It gets moved around depending on what mood I'm in.
The final garden delights. I picked some sweet peas and love in a mist for the house today.
I suppose I should tag more people for random things but I need to think who has not been done. I will contemplate on that.

Oh Mary, your courtyard is going to be lovely. I enjoy sprucing up the outside, too. We recently put covers on our porches (roofs) so as to block the heat of the sun...here in South Carolina it gets pretty brutal. I loved England so much when we lived there for the fact that not only was it home of the Beatles (yeah yeah yeah) but the weather was always so JUST RIGHT...as far as I was concerned, anyway.
Loving your little courtyard!!
I know were not supposed to like IKEA but sometimes amoungst the garish plastic furniture there is quite often a little gem.., and that table and chairs is definetly a great find...I think I might have to take a little trip to IKEA soon!

Your courtyard is going to be beautiful, it looks lovely already. We have a little patio with whitewashed bricks at the bottom of our garden and it is a real suntrap. Love the desk with flowers in it, what a good idea.
