Tuesday Snapshot - Wee & Wallpaper

What does your Tuesday say about you?

I know it is hard to capture an entire day in one photo, especially if you are as creatively challenged as I am but I've tried my best as I do every Tuesday with this funny little segment of mine.

So here is my Tuesday snapshot, lets see what it says about me and my unusual day.





It is a roll of Laura Asley wallpaper, Marciana Teal to be precise and a specimen jar. Noice.
What for? Well the wall paper was hung today, on a wall of our bedroom and this is the leftover bit that I have stupidly decided will be used by my craft-challenged self as a lampshade. Shut up, stop sniggering.
Yes it is true that every other crazy craft project of mine has ended badly like the stupid chair that sits naked with 3 legs on my balcony and has been there since I did that post back in April.

This one, my friends is different. This project will work! Ok so I'm full of it and the truth is that I'm 99% sure that the project will progress no further than me sitting here telling you about it but it is worth mentioning at least to further perfect my stepford image to brand new readers who have no idea that I am so hopelessly removed from Martha it isn't funny.

As for the bedroom makeover, if anyone is interested I can post some pictures tomorrow?

The specimen jar is an entirely unrelated matter. The little Tinker has been unwell again, a high grade fever for 4 days with no obvious source of infection. The doctor has ordered blood and urine tests. Try getting a non-potty-trained baby to take wizzle in a jar! I have been chasing my pantsless child around the non-carpeted rooms of our house all day. She thinks it is hilarious.

Anyway, that's my day. How has your Tuesday been? If you had to take a photo of your day, what would be in it?
**edited to add we got the wizzle! Awaiting results**
