New Cabinet

I managed to change over cabinets this weekend. Very happy. Not much else to do because of all the RAIN! So cold I have been wearing a jumper all weekend.

I didn't think it would fit everything in because it is considerably smaller but it is the perfect fit for the space and fit everything in.

This is the old one that it replaced. I refurbished this one from scratch with white paint, Catherine Martin wallpaper and cut glass knobs.

Happy Father's Day

What a weekend! So much to do. So little time!
Finally finished everything but the shell necklaces on Saturday. I changed my mind on the colour of the mirror. I painted it Ambassador Stirling from Porter's Paints. Thought it was a better match for the room. Only thing missing are some fresh flowers. No time!

I managed to sew the black beaded trimming onto the black feathered capelet.
For some reason and I am not sure why, I will have to look into it, my Net-a-porter magazine went to my Gold Coast address. I of course haven't had a chance to go through it.

A family that crafts together......

Well I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was very busy.

Saturday morning saw the whole family at Porter's Paints. The kids got to choose a colour they wanted to paint their numbers in.

I filled the holes in with putty and let it dry.
We then undercoated the numbers and the frames I found on my Friday Op Shopping Adventure.
Painted to our hearts content. Carmen (pink) and Capriosa (green)
Cut out corkboard to fit the frame. I bought this ready framed corkboard from bunnings for $20. I took the frame off, cut it and fit it in the back of the picture frames. It was big enough to do both.
I chose Dulux Steel Shimmer and then went over it lightly with Porter's Paints Ambassador Stirling . I wanted to keep mine neutral.
My daughter on the other hand definately wanted pink. I now have to find a frame for my little man who wants it painted green. It's his favourite colour!
