I think that she was excited over the bargains. You can track it down through the feedback, if you're as nosey as me.
Brilliant bargains.0 -
Lolly, the table set is lovely, I'm doing a similar set but it's much trickier and taking longer than I thought. I'm so impatient ans want it all done now.0

For different but matching fabric (see you're right we do know what you mean
) try the bundles from Fabric Rehab - I found this shop through a link on Kandipandi's blog and at the moment I daren't place an order till I can trim my wants down to size.

pennib - Those monkeys are amazing
You're clearly very talented. I'm immensely jealous of everyone who can draw - I kinda stopped learning art around the stick man stage - luckily OH has a degree in something arty so once I get started on projects that part can be left to him.
In other news, I have a job :j :j
It's only 9 days temping at an office near me but they are paying £8 an hour :eek: which should fund many many Shabby Chic projects (though probably should go towards paying off the overdraft!)
Anyway - keep posting the pictures everyone, I'm getting loads of idea on how I want to hallway to look from them
xxxJust started cashback-ing - makes me feel less guilty when I impulse buy!0
