Anna and I took a little drive south last week to visit a garden centre we hadn\u2019t been to before. It was nice enough, but the real draw was the coffee and cake\u2014though that actually turned into lunch instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the way back, we stopped by Driftwood Designs<\/a> in Aberaeron to see if we could find a framed print to match the one Anna bought me when I completed the Wales Coast Path<\/a>. The print, by Lizzie Spikes, is a map of Wales highlighting the different sections of the Coast Path. It\u2019s fitting and looks great in the bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n

However, it did look a little lonely on its own, and we knew Lizzie Spikes had some similar pieces, so we went in search of a matching print. We found one featuring the highland areas of Wales, which complements the Coast Path print perfectly, especially as I now have plans to bag all of the Welsh Nuttalls<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

While browsing, we also spotted a couple of others that caught our eye. One was a Beaufort Scale chart, which felt especially appropriate given that I\u2019m a windsurfer and weather watcher living in one of the windiest places around. To go with it, there was a beautiful print of different cloud types. We ended up buying all three, and they\u2019ve now found their place on the bathroom walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
