Keep up the good work and look forward to following your blog which along with Bibbitybob's is saved in my Bookmarks until I can figure out how to add my name to the list of followers.

If you look down the right hand side there's usually a little collection of pictures of other followers, then a 'follow' button - press that!

Hi ladies,
I can't work out how to insert an image as it comes up with a little red cross so hope you can see my new shabby chic plate bought for £3:

How pretty is that plate! Your omelette looks pretty good too

OMG if anyone is in Edinburgh and wants a dresser have a look at this currently at £10 with about 5 mins left! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Solid-Pine-Welsh-Dresser-White-/190394776954?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Home_Garden_Kitchen_KitchenFurniture_EH&hash=item2c5469bd7a

Wow, what a bargain, it went for £16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wish I lived near some of these dresser sellers.

From what I've seen, most of the pretty things seem to be in yorkshire and more northern areas. Lucky people!

Ok, I've updated my blog with my weekend's projects. All the before and afters are on there if anyone's interested, otherwise here are the finished bits.

Bibbitybob they are gorgeous - are you sure you want to sell that house, it is lovely!

BTW, where do you get your Farrow and Ball paint from - I looked in my local B&Q but they don't seem to sell it.

Thanks in advance

Thank you Janebo & berniesmaster! I don't really want to sell, but I'm short on space at the moment and have nowhere to put it, plus any extra pennies would be useful right now! I've listed it on ebay so fingers crossed it sells for more than 99p :eek:

I get the Farrow & Ball paint from Homebase as my B&Q doesn't sell it either. I always try and get it on a 10% off day!

Gerr'of!! Just looked back on my blog and that was a 25p car boot purchase. I nearly bought another jug today but I think it's probably possible to have too many. I just think they look so pretty with flowers in

Now you've said that though, I'm going to have to go and edit the listing to make sure no-one bidding thinks it's included :eek::rotfl:
