Self-respect leads to self - discipline.
When you have both firmly under your

Here's my latest project completed.
I just so adore this cupboard now! I have to say
it does look so pretty and also very practical,
the vintage wallpaper I found turned out a treat
I decorated it inside and out using the paper
and decoupage.

fabrics into my pieces but they are a little on
the expensive side so I will be sourcing some
similar alternatives for my next projects.

I'm on the look out for dining tables and chairs
that I can transform with some delicious colours
and fabrics.

I think we all need a good looking dining set to
get cosy around with family and friends
especially so at Christmas time! So think ahead,
get prepared and make a decision on how you can
create a beautiful looking dining area starting
with a unique statement piece of furniture!
A colourful characterful piece makes a interesting
focal point and a great talking point.
Alternatively you may just want to re-vamp
and renew your existing set? Especially so, if its
still in pretty good condition. My advice would be to have a think about it before you throw your piece of furniture
away, all it may need is a bright cheery makeover!
Think about getting acquainted with colour. Build
up a mood board of your own - with colour swatches,
wallpaper cuttings, old vintage pictures and your
favourite flowers. Discover what colour excites you
and makes you feel good. There is a fantastic wealth
of colours out there and we are spoilt for choice. So
why live in dull space? Bring your home alive with some colour!
Have a look at these:

Annie sloan - chalk paints
Autentico - chalk paints
