Recent furniture make overs

I love to buy something old from the charity shop or carboot and give it a new lease of life, don't you?
Well those of you who have read my blog before may know that I LOVE vintage china and knick knacks. A while back I bought a   dresser and with the help of my hubs we made it over and its a fab place for my china. But alas my collection keeps growing and after months of trying to persuade the hubs I needed a china cabinet he relented and I found a lovely slim one that would fit perfectly into the living room.

The before

And after

And full of pretty things

Already very full! I think I may need another!

My next recent makeover was a set of drawers for the bedroom, I've been looking for ages for a nice set and I recently came across a set that had just been unloaded from a van and were sitting on the pavement waiting to go into a charity shop. So I ran in asked the price and they were mine!

After some TLC

And embellished with a little touch of decoupage

Thanks for taking a look 😀

Next time I'll show you some of my ever growing china collection, any one else out there who also collects feel free to share you blog with me I love seeing others finds xx

I've been away way too long :(

Time just seems to have flown by these last several months, I didn't realise quite how long it had been since I last put a post on here. Life has been so busy what with one thing or another. I've been trying to catch up on reading everyone else's blog and I think it's about time I started posting on mine again. I've had lots of lovely finds and made over a few pieces of furniture, so I'm afraid the next few posts may have a lot of pics of all my goodies.

Here's a couple of before pics of my recent upcycle projects to peek your interest ☺
