Bee happy .... paint furniture

I have now painted the walls, ceiling and wood work in my office and will paint the floorboards tomorrow when the wood work is dry.

In between the painting I have been renovating my brown pine desk.




It has had 2 coats of white paint now and is waiting for new handles.


Remember my pink craft table with the pink spot oilcloth top?

This has now also been painted white and will have a new oilcloth top when it's dry.

I finally found my stash of handles in the garage and am pleased with what I found.


I bought 2 sets of handles from Laura Ashley the other night, 2 hearts and 2 flowers to make up for the gaps as I need 9 handles.

I don't know what Sweep the brooch was doing in my handle stash but glad to finally have him back!! lol


This is my Laura Ashley desk lamp which I am working on updating, you will have to wait to see the results ...........

Bee happy x
Have a delicious day!

    That is looking good after just 2 coats!! I have been painting my living room furniture white instead of the cream I had before and it has taken about 4 coats!!
