The Good Old Days

I picked this piece up for myself a while ago. And when I took out the drawer to paint I couldnt stop laughing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. Someone was trying hard to hide the fact they hated school and had sunburn πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. I couldn’t bring myself to paint over them lol.  Colourtrend Paints Charge and General Finishes Pitch Black…

Pink and Purple

Perhaps unsurprisingly I found this Sophie Conran wallpaper and fell in immediate love. Finally got to use it on something because there was no way I was gonna be allowed to put it on any walls in the house πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.Colourtrend Paints Dressage

More Wine PleaseΒ 

Isn’t it a pity we didn’t know then what we know now. How many of us have thrown out all those Supervalu pieces πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. Irish people will know what I’m talking about. I get a great buzz out of revamping these drinks cabinets. 🎨 Colourtrend Paints Kimono Red and Orange Ballad

The Do-Over

It’s never too late to change your mind. I painted these table and chairs a while back and afterwards Anna saw a similar table on Pinterest which was painted but stained on top. She fell in love with the look so she contacted me to see if there was any way I could do that…

I Write for a MagazineΒ 

Woohoo the first edition of Life+ is now available. I have to say it’s pretty surreal seeing my name credited to an article lol. My very first article too so be kind πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. I hope you enjoy my ramblings and there are so many more fantastic stories to get stuck into too. So cosy up…

Mexican Pine Takeover

5 days and 5 pieces of Mexican Pine to Revamp. No problem. All pieces came from the one open plan room. A room that was in need of updating and in need of a splash of colour. A successful mission was had.

Retro Rage

Sometimes a piece just does not go to plan and this one really tried my patience lol. It took about 3-4 attempts to get it right. Taking colours out, putting colours in etc. In the end though it was worth the frustration πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. This fab mid century piece is now available in my facebook shop….
