I mentioned in my previous post that I have been busy painting furniture that I bought at the local re-use centre.
Below are two pieces re-finished using Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint (Old White). Painted 2 coats, sanded, waxed, and we are good to go! No priming or preparing the furniture needed! I also refinished the cushion on this chair (actually 2 chairs) with some fabric I bought a while ago, before we even bought the house - and it fits so well with the wall colours.
BEFORE (found this chair on the side of the road):
AFTER:
What do you think? Better or worse? These will be my Make n' Take chairs.
NEXT.....the coffee table.

AFTER:
This coffee table is going in the loft where the guests will sleep. It will help fill out the lounge/TV space up there and make it a little more homey.
FOOD PREVIEW: Home made Ice Cream
It looks yummy and tastes even better! This is a very rich recipe and has a tart raspberry flavour.
I did take some photos of the loft space today, but still have more work to do up there before I can show the BIG reveal!
Bye for now.
