    wooo hoooooooooooooo!!!!!

    i realise they're not strictly shabby chic - but as i started off with a set of horrid melemine drawers i'm chuffed.

    i have been redecorating one room at a time. the spare room seems to have fallen by the way side, and become a bit of a dumping ground. i figured a lick of paint, and some decupage (spelling...) would tide me over.

    Did you copy the Direct LInk as I think that one will make a photo show on your post :)

    gingababe have you tried looking on the 'local ebay bargain finder' ? Google it and it gives you the option of searching within 10, 25, 50 miles of your postcode for 'collection only' items. It's fab :j

    I'll second that...get all my buys for makeovers that way :)

    I've been stalking this thread for nearly a year now :eek:

    Though it was about time I spoke!! I love buying things and doing them up but can only do small things as just moved back home and have no room!!!

    Just about to head off to a car boot though - looking for a mirror and picture frames as I've just done up my bedroom!! :j
