Back On The Market

 Hello lovely fellow bloggers. Trumpet fanfare...... our house is finally back on the market. We've had three viewings so far and all have been positive. We are awaiting the last viewees (is that a word or am I making up my own language again?) to get back to us. They have told our estate agents they will get back by Thursday afternoon, we are assuming they are viewing another house before that. Please cross everything for us.

In the meantime I have continued to declutter and yes you've guessed it bought a few more things. Nothing extravagant of course, you know me for the thrifty gal I am.



I couldn't resist this delightful butler tray table, which m'dears I obtained by swopping some charity shop purchases for it. So in fact the table cost me very little money.

I also received a little parcel of treats in the post yesterday, all very exciting.







I signed up to the Bonne Maman newsletter a while ago and they sent me an offer I couldn't refuse. This box full of delicious tiny pots of jams will be coming with us to our AirBnb when we visit Norfolk soon. Small things that make the everyday a little bit more special.

    1. Hi my friend. Sadly our garden was too big for the viewees, so back to square one. (sad face)

  3. I do hope you are able to sell your house soon Jean & that it all comes together for you. Your butlers tray is just lovely.

  4. Pretty things. The little jars a perfect for refilling for an Advent calendar. I used nuts, dried and crystallised fruits, and marzipan.

  5. Fingers firmly crossed that you get a really good offer. It must be so hard waiting to hear. My first thought with that Bonne Maman gift set was ... that spoon is never going to fit into those little jars. :-)

    Good luck with the decluttering, by the way.
    I'm loving the sound of that butler tray table - which it would have been silly to resist - and the Bonne Maman box of treats! xxx
