Daft question but did I read somewhere that if a thread gets to 4000 a new one needs to be started? If so we are teetering under the weight of all the makeovers!!Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar.

Oh me too Pennib, just didnt want to lose the connection if somebody starts a new thread and I miss it. Not sure what the etiquette is as I only recently started to post.
I am subscribed to your blog and I already got a sneak preview and was stunned by the outcome. You are an inspiration. ThanksSome days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons.

Princess-vicki; Those are super bargains. Love the little clock it's so sweet. The teapot wow 2 euros was it in a carboot or shop? what are you going to be putting in the boxes....sorry nosey me!
Thanks
It was only 2 euros from a proper shop! Although I say proper.. there were lots of little shops that were full of Chinese tat. The teapot and boxes were among the tatI think I will use the big one for make up and the little one for jewellery. Althought theyre both currently empty just being pretty!
On the subject of jewellery look what I made today♥ Blogger at Victoria's Vintage Blog ♥0 -
Cherisong; No I don't know what happens either.....maybe the mods start a new one?
Thanks for looking at my blog.....the more the merrier!
Princesviki; 2 euros in a proper shop bargain! They havn't caught up with the shabby chic'ers otherwise they would have slapped more euros on!!
What lovely necklaces that you have made...well done :0)0 -
Could someone else not start a new thread and link to it in one of their posts? I'll let one of you more seasoned chicers do it.
Pennib, love the bookcase. Very swish

I have PM'd Penelope Penguin who started this thread to ask if we need to start a new one. Would hate to lose everything on this, I still read back on the old one.Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar.

Ladies, I need some help. I am about to eBay a seriously shabby chic small cabinet but am tempted to cover it with CK tissues... but it is polished/painted. Would it not work?
