Shabby Chic Saturday

Do you have a bit of old furniture sitting about? Have you seen a cute piece of furniture in your local charity/thrift shop bit it’s a nasty brown colour?

I spied this beauty in my local charity shop for £25, I liked the size, shape & mouldings but hated the dark colour. I knew it would look good over my fireplace & it was exactly what I had been looking  for.

I had used Annie Sloan paint on some smaller projects so I thought I would give it a go with this.

I was so pleased with the result.

Let me know if you have transformed any old furniture using Annie Sloan, It would be great to see some other examples.

If you have not already tried it, give it ago. There are  quite a few brands and colour varieties out there, I would recommend Annie Sloan for its simplicity & good range of colours.

Not another Beauty Blog!!

Ok, I will admit I am a beauty blog addict, as I know many of you are.   I love nothing more than reading about all the new products on the market, trying them out for myself, telling my friends about them & I thought hold on……..why don’t I write a blog too.

So what am I going to write about? Basically lots. All the things I love make-up, skincare & beauty products, thrifting & charity shop finds, home crafts – turning old bits & pieces into gorgeous new gems for your home, good recipes….not Michelin chef trained required recipes but achievable family meals, the odd book review & maybe a few more stories & random girl talk.

I would love it if you would follow my blog & join me in this blog journey.
