WOULD YOU WEAR BLUE AND GREEN ?

 We've all heard the saying 
"Red and green should never be seen except upon an Irish Queen"
I always thought it was Fairy Queen.
Did you know about this saying 
"Blue and green should never be seen except with something in between"
What a load of bunkum, I can't see anything wrong with my outfit today.
My old blue Hotter boots (my version of the very expensive Duberry boots).
Gipsy green lace tights.www.gipsytights.com Blue & green Welsh Tapestry pinafore that I picked up in a lovely charity shop in Summertown, Oxford.  Blue Dereta crimplene coat, another vintage bargain buy. Forgot to photograph it but I used my blue Welsh wool tapestry bag as well.
Under the pinafore my old Boden shirt that cost per outing 
must be nil by now I've worn it that much.
After yesterdays trip to the garden centre with my 82 year auntie I went back today for something to cheer my own garden up. I have to give auntie my full attention when we are out or she might end up in trouble or lost haha. Love her to bits.
Robins seemed to be my thing today and a bit of winter colour.
Yes we have mirrors and old screwdrivers in our garden 
among other things
I might check out Victoria Baths, Manchester on Sunday its the Vintage Home Fair and see if anyone else is wearing blue and green.

Keeping it Green

Jam jars, string and old book pages make marvellous flower holders.
Spotted in the garden this week.
Hoping for some warmer weather this week

FOCUS ON LIFE .....GREEN

 I have grown my own spinach this year
 A tree at the top of my lane
 On the bridal path where I walk Kikki
 In my garden
 On our walk
 Another on our moorland walk
 No slugs on the hosta yet
 
 Nettles and a monkey tree

 ALL MY PHOTO'S ARE OF THE FLORAL AND FAUNA IN MY GARDEN OR ON THE MOORLAND SURROUNDING MY HOME

Nearly Forgot ....

 I nearly forgot to show you the tag I made last week for Carolyn Saxby's Tag Tuesday Challenge.  The theme was "GREEN".
As we were on holiday in my CYBER GREEN VW Beetle in our GREEN caravan, set in the GREEN woodland in front of Cartmel Fell in the lovely GREEN Lake District, I was definitely in the right surroundings.
So this GREEN Doodly Bird emerged sat on a GREEN perch in a GREEN cage surrounded by GREEN foliage which i made from my stash of GREEN papers and my leaf stamp.
 The sharp eyed eagles amongst you will notice the make of our 15 year old caravan is 
BLUEBIRD, seems like I cant get away from birds for a minute.

If you want to see what other people did here's the link
