It's been breezy today, cool when it's cloudy and hot when it's not.
I'm glad I waited to decorate the porch windows as it has taken most of the day to do. Before starting I washed the windows again and then carried on and washed the rest of the windows that face onto the street.
I had my design drawn on paper which I stuck to the outside of the windows. The lines of the design had been divided into numbered sections with each type of glass blob marked on. I had put the corresponding glass blobs in numbered plastic bags to make reproducing the design on the windows easier and this worked well. I used clear acrylic bathroom sealant along the lines and then it was just a matter of pressing the glass blobs onto the sealant.
I'm happy with the end result of sea-themed wave/nautilus motifs and if we get fed up with it it's not too difficult to remove. I like glass and I also like being different and a bit quirky.
In the afternoon the postman brought the window film with the house name that I will put above the letter box. I was going to stick it on the window straight away but the instructions say not to do it in harsh sunlight so I'll wait till tomorrow morning when the sun will be round the other side of the house.
Our little car went in for its MOT today and came back with a pass. Not too surprising since we don't do that much driving but you never know. There is an advisory for some rust, again not surprising here by the sea and Jason will sort that when he services the car. He thinks the car will last for a few more years at least which is good news.
