The plant holder was white and rusty |
Time for Tuesday Tea over on Elizabeth and Bleubeard's. It's getting hot here so I'm up the end of my tiny garden in a tiny bit of shade, still painting, everything black this time. Using Hammerite black paint (in an old tin) to pretty up some things that other people didn't want or were going to throw out! Plant holders, horse shoes, table and chairs...
I placed my Cappuccino (with chocolate sprinkles)and biscuits on the Table ...with a little Treat for someone else...but where was he? I rattled the cat treats and guest who turned up two seconds later! Jinx my lodger cat...
There was only a few treats left and he soon finished them off! He doesn't look too pleased that they're all gone!
What? You woke me up for five treats? I could've eaten the whole box! |
Well, I've finish painting the chairs and plant holder. I'll just finish my coffee then pop over and join Elizabeth and Bleubeard for T for Tuesday and then I'm off out walking dogs... Hope it doesn't get too hot! Have a great day!
I love the open work pattern on the table and chairs--it came out fabulous in black!
ReplyDeleteLove the photos and love that you even have treats for the cats.
ReplyDeleteThe black paint really freshened everything up...looks great! Jinx is a cutie!
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday!
Your cats do the same look that mine do! It just says the lot, doesn't it? Your black paint seems to have given a rather nice new lease of life to things in the garden, always such a satisfying feeling!
ReplyDeleteYour post reminds me that I have a few iron chairs that need a coat of paint. I think September will be a great month for painting.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday !
Oh Lyn, this is TOO funny. Jinx DOES look rather annoyed in that last photo. And now Bleubeard wants that pink cat bowl. I love what a great recycler you are. Your metal table and chairs look awesome, as does that plant holder now. Very impressive second life you have given these pieces.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your T tale with us today and tell Jinx he can go back to sleep, now.
awwwww kitty with treats :) what a day brightener !
ReplyDeleteOh - he's so handsome :-) I LUV that little Kitty shaped treat box from Whiskas :-D Awesome. !!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful table and chairs set.... so delicate and pretty :-D

Happy T day Lyn! Great looking projects and what great up-cycling! Everything looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday to you! Glad you could find some shade and finish your beautiful painting. I love the black, not the color I usually see.
ReplyDeleteHow cute is your cat, mine would gobble up the treats too. One can never have enough treats!
Hope it stays cool for you.
Hi Lyn. I love all your painted goodies :-)
ReplyDeleteFancy being woken up for just 5 treats! :-)
Hugs,

I just love Jinx. He is so expressive. I am surprised he did not try your drink too. My Mittens would have. Lovely garden. Wish I could join you for tea there. Thanks for sharing. Edwina Brown
ReplyDeleteOoh, chocolate sprinkles on cappuccino sounds heavenly! Thanks for the idea; I'll have to try that as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteI love the name Jinx for a cat. Reminds me of the book Uhura's song. Is that where you got the name?
Happy T day!
Great paint job. I like the black.
ReplyDeleteLoving the black - makes everything seem calmer I think... thanks for stopping by - Happy T for Tuesday...Mxx
