Yes, they are nice, but you have promoted your website on every one of your posts so far and I'm afraid it is not allowed on MSE.

Trying to do one little 'shabbying' project a week till they're all done..........next week I've got in mind my Dads old wooden tray he made.
What would be the next kind of paint to use on it ? I'm thinking gloss as I'd like a fairly sturdy finish but not sure...........think I may just have some gloss the right colour lurking in the cupboard so trying to be a bit 'moneysaving' as well.Mary
I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

i am in the middle of painting my old serving tray, i am using satin wood... which to be honest i am using for everything.....lol...
the colour i am using is crazy cream... which i am using for the skirting boards, and thats what i painted the hostess trolley/dumb waiter with...as you say saving money by not using too many paints/coloursWork to live= not live to work0 -
