it has been a little crazy around here these past weeks, the heatwave, shed distractions, another birthday, lots of lego, lego cake....(pressure!) lego party (more pressure!).......school decisions...(even more pressure!)
...... in the midst of it all I find a creepy little cupboard which is just the right size for holding my faberdashery....so I find my tins of paint...trying to remember that I was to use up left-over paint to save pennies....
but after 3 different colours....it still wasn't right so I pop in to Mr H's shed (yes he works in a shed too!) to have a little moan........and spot this little guy :) .......then I remember the fab photo above in MM 's first issue and I'm in the car on the way to the diy store before you can say 'thunderbirds are go!'
finally after a lot of rubbing, sanding and huffing (and worse) I repainted it, finished the insides with a pretty vintage wallpaper and some fabric and filled it with my little trims and notions :)
it was obviously always meant to be this colour .....
and as for Mr Tracy well he was obviously always meant to live with me :)
wishing you a happy autumn sun filled weekend

Loving the inside as much as the outside. Last time I saw that fella I was trying to make an outfit for my mates son in Oz. I think it was ridiculously small, but made him happy all the same.
ReplyDeleteOhh I do love blue and that's a seriously lovely blue Jane.

Hi, I have read your blog for a while and love your style, in awe and slightly envious of your beautiful shed. I think your cupboard is stunning blue is my favourite colour. I have only now started my own blog thanks to my lovely daughter helping me set up. Just wanted at last to say hello and thank you for the pleasure your blog has given me. Lorraine x
