I ran out of time on Friday and will have to go back on Tuesday next week to finnish the plastic and put the sliding doors in place.
On Thursday I was at my mums allotment where she had a bit of unusable ground beside the shed so she wanted decking put there.
|
the ground was covered to help stop weeds coming up. |
|
Frame put together now to start leveling it before the boards go on. |
|
Stuart cleaning the roof, he can now reach it. |

all done and this is my mum from behind looking at daniel |

So there you go a photo blog of what I was up to this week maybe not crafty but i am feeling the effects of using muscles that have been dormant for about 6 months.
Hope you like the blog

You've certainly been a busy (Easter) bunny!!!
ReplyDeleteWell done you!!
Well I'd say there was a lot of handmade stuff going on there so it defintely counts in my book! I really enjoyed the photo blog of what you've been up to. Make sure we get to see the completed polytunnel!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in HM :-)

You've been very busy, time to relax and give the muscles a rest, I think. Fingers crossed that the weather keeps fine. Hugs Sue x
ReplyDeleteYou used your hands, therefore a craft, well done, mine would have been in a heap on the floor.
ReplyDeleteDef. is very skilled handmade craft! Nancy
ReplyDeleteI love your mum's lottie... bet she will soon find that all the owners will be joining her on her deck for drinks.
ReplyDeleteShoot, that's crafting writ large! Wow, I'm really impressed. Wish I had been doing a blog when my husband and I lived in TX and put in a little rustic garden with Koi pond. I get what you mean about using muscles you never use. So, next time you feel like doing a project like this, come here! I'll put you to work! :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes that definately counts and interesting to watch each stage in the photos. Looking forward to seeing the end result.
ReplyDeleteDecking looks great too.

I'm very jealous of the polytunnel, our two greenhouses are fit to burst and the garden's are already full... I need more land!!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures, I'm another one who could find you plenty of jobs too! :)
ReplyDeleteLol If I could spread myself about the country I would be able to help you all out, The handy odd job man :)
