    My latest charity shop finds :D

    What a bargain. I stitched he baby sampler years ago for a BF and it turned out beautifully and as I recall it didn't take long to do.

    Hopefully this has worked - its not very shabby chic (though that oard has some lovely work on it).

    Now just got to think of a use for some old skateboards adn two sets of skis......ideas anyone?
    Love what you've done with the kitchen table

    Thank you for the kind words reference the table - have HUGE Ike@ table which I personally would like to sell but may keep for use in a craft room - thats going to get decopaged as well - navigation charts I think.
    The skateboards I have bowed to suggestions here and think they will become shelves in the DSS bedroom. (though may wait until we move houes - if we find one.)
    The skis well I got a little sidetracked there and erm..... found a few more projects one being a bottle top table for the 'garden' in current house - table being preppped now need to get some more bottle tops....:beer::rotfl:
    personally I would like to ban pininterst as was up surfing until the wee hours and now am behind on everything today and its sewing day today.
