A Finished Shabby Chic Project and A Favourite Auction Buy


A modern MDF bedside cabinet, the sort that has fake pine laminate on it.


Looks so much better painted in Annie Sloan Henrietta and Old White for the handles.


A feature stencil on the top. The stencil is a Jamie Oliver one, supposed to be for baking!


All drawers lined with some wallpaper with a French theme.


Wallpaper purchased from The Range.


Handles lightly distressed. Three coats of wax and polished to finish.


My favourite auction buy this week. A 1960's sewing box. It was very dusty, so gave it a quick polish with some wax. Shows up the teak wood nicely.


Expands to quite a large size. Made by a company called Arnold. All nice and clean apart from the bottom layer and a small chip to the wood on one top corner.

Very busy week, with friends and my Granddaughter over to visit. 

Hope you have all had an equally happy week.
