Thursday 5th July

While Mike rendezvous'd with our courier to hand over a van load of furniture for distribution all over the country, I embarked upon my latest paint job - a Victorian pine shelf unit which came into our possession in a rather poor finish, and screaming out for an Annie Sloan makeover.







So, I was pleased to have a project where I could use a shade I'd not used before, Aubusson, combined with Farrow & Ball's Lime White for the interior. I was really pleased with the end result.

Listed today are two very traditional and elegant pieces of furniture in Bleached Walnut, a gorgeous pale walnut finish, by the renowned furniture retailers, Maple & Co. Soooo elegant.



Please feel free to browse our Ebay shop for details of the above and other items we have for sale.
A perfect end to the day was for us  to cool off with a top down drive this evening to Wimpole Hall, the National Trust owned property close to where we live, making the most of the sunshine and the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside.
