Woman on a mission

I got quite excited yesterday when I spotted the front cover of the latest edition of Country Living.



It just triggered something off in me and when I got home I scurried into the garage, I was a woman on a mission! I just had a feeling that a jug I had thought lost in a house move may be loitering with intent somewhere close and although I had previously hunted high and low I had been unable to find it. So I looked on shelves and under shelves and then I opened a cupboard ................. Yes!


I had obviously put it in too safe a place considering it's condition. It was in need of a little TLC.
So after a little cleaning and drying and gluing and setting I was really pleased to be able to welcome it back home.



If memory serves me right I think my mum gave it to me when she saw I'd taken a shine to it, which makes it even more special.

Hope your day is working out as well as mine.

  5. Thanks so much for all of your comments ladies, you can tell I enjoyed this can't you? Lesley unfortunately there's no badge on the bottom but I am a 'potter' so it could very well be a piece of Carlton. x
