Things are progress quite slowly but enjoying spending some time here sorting things out etc. Have really decided I love limed oak. Have done one or two pieces to go in our new sitting room. Also have been madly sticking on shells!! I have repainted a lovely old pine blanket chest which we have had for many years. The inside is covered in a Stamford newspaper from 1867. Have painted in Hardwick White and covered in black and white shells which I am now crackling. Can't wait to see finished. Have now painted the outside again with the brilliant Marston paint - so easy to paint with. Going to blitz the workshop tomorrow and start getting ready for courses. Have some new mdf bits for students to try from The MDF Man - do try his website. Swinderby today - it is getting better but several dealers did't come today due to weather forcast. Can't blame them. One poor chap had a cabinet blow over his table and smash several things. Bought a couple of pretty tables and lovely mirrors and another pretty french chair (more work for Ella). Will take some new photos to post tomorrow.
