More rust for this weeks colour for Shades of Inspiration
Such a well used wheel barrow. 
Love the spots where huge chunks of paint have fallen off the bottom of the wheelbarrow to reveal the rust
Love the way the rusty paint is flaking on this chair. I have been tempted to scrape it off and repaint it but I just love the look of the rust
Matching set - well weathered chair and market umbrella stand.
This rusted arch holds my beautiful Pierre de Ronsard climbing rose. So battered and rusted, now broken during some strong winter winds. Might need to do a bit of repair work on it before Spring starts on 1st September
Fabulous looking rusted screw from my arch

UPDATE ON MAD MAX
When Max went to the physio on Saturday they thought that because of the lack of mobility in his shoulder and being unable to lift the arm that the tendon was torn from the bone. So after a visit to the Doctor Monday for a referral for an ultra sound that was done Tuesday, he went back to the physio last night and it was found to be nothing more than a large pocket of fluid.
He is one lucky man.
So out of the fall he gets a new training bike, helmet, bike clothes (at the hospital they cut his other ones off him- mind you he has 3 other sets) a bucket load of sympathy and thankfully just some exercises to do. He was so happy to hear that all it was, was fluid.

Isn't it funny how even rust can be beautiful! Glad everything is oing well over there and Max is fine...My husband rides also and I can't tell you how I worry when he's out riding...not about him. But the crazy drivers out there! :) Karin

Nice rust Alison!! Actually, I have a thing about wheelbarrows that have been well used! Lucky Max, that is such a relief, literally!! Rachaelxo

Thank goodness Max is OK and a happy man with his new practice bike, helmet and outfits, I bet the buckets of sympathy didn't go astray either.
I love your rusty photos, my fav is the one with a hint of powder blue colour as a contrast
I think 'Mad Max' suits him!! Good to hear all is well! Your banner picture is lovely too - did you take that?
Love the rust pics. Glad your husband is okay. Have a great weekend.

So glad to hear all is well with Max. I love rust also. My hubby can't understand the fascination. He wants to paint everything. Oh well, "Viva la difference!"
Oh I love your banner!

What a pretty chair! I like rusty things, too. I have a friend who thinks that is crazy, but I think there can be pretty rust, and you must think so too!
Hi Alison, I love the rusty look of wonderful pieces like you have shared. The chair is a real treasure.
Thank you for stopping by my anniversary post with your kind comment.
Have a great weekend,
