I just have a little bit more distressing to finish today, then I'll take some photos of the finished item....watch this space!
Then I have to have a think about what I am going to start next...actually no I don't, I will be finishing some half-done projects that I pushed aside so I could get onto my first custom order. There is a duchess with lovely rope carved edges that has been sealed and has the first coat of cream paint on it. It has a matching bedside that I have already finished but not taken photos of yet (must do that!). The other thing half-done is a cute wee retro-style piano stool (that's what I think it is, anyway)...most unloved in its 'before' state but will look super cute once I have finished it, hopefully! I have almost finished painting the wooden box part of the seat, then I will recover the seat/lid in red and white polka dot oilcloth. The chromed legs will come up beautifully with a scrub, I'll put it all back together, and then all will be revealed. I am also painting a little lamp table for my mother, in cream. It has a couple of coats on it so far and is looking much better already....I am still always amazed and impressed about what a coat of paint can do!
OK, so I have lots to do....better go paint!
