New for old.

This little cupboard has been sitting around for probably 15 years waiting for me to do something with it, so I finally pulled it out of the shed for a bit of a makeover and it was definitely the worse for wear after the years of neglect. 

So neglected in fact that it had a mouse skeleton inside.

And now - The inside

The outside

And completed with its finishing touches.

A recent buy from the auction also provided me with an opportunity to revamp a bevelled mirror.

Before 

And now.

Hopefully the mirror will now sell on Ebay!

A revamped room

I've been helping my daughter decorate her spare rooms over the last couple of weeks, getting ready for visitors staying with her in May and its turning out to be just what I would like my whole house to look like, when I eventually get a new one!!

Light, bright, airy and so pretty. Hard work from what it was but definitely worth the effort. We painted from the ceiling to floor, literally, including the furniture and wall frames (brought cheaply from the last auction). 

Just the curtains to make now!
