the big reveal...

here she is...in all her glory...


i finished painting her last night, and got so carried away, when i came down for breakfast this morning i saw that i had left the paintbrush, full of gloss resting on a piece of cardboard on the floor! i have never, in all my painting days, done that...tut tut



this is where she will see out her days...next to the fireplace in the spare room...if i did a 180 turn with my camera you would see a double bed with 2 clothes airers on full of school uniform and sports kits!!! - i think my side of the spare room is much nicer on the eyes...don't you agree??

  1. She looks lovely! Well done! But yes, tut tut for leaving the gloss on the paintbrush. I hate gloss for the mess of cleaning brushes and the smell but love the look so suppose I'll have to put up with it! How long do you reckon until she's full of goodies though? hehe! ;)

  3. What a transformation! I love the wallpaper, it really brightens the whole piece up. Post another photo when you have loaded her up with all your bits and pieces so I can be nosy!! xx

  4. She looks very good Caroline. Really fresh and bright. I like the fact that you admit to the clothes drying side of the room!
