From this .... to this





My boys went camping on the weekend, so i finally got around to doing a few little jobs! My baby stayed at home with me, and my toddler went for Saturday and Sunday during the daytime (they were only 1/2hr away so I met them half way). Gee was it nice to have some peace! They go with a big group, all boys! They ride motorbikes (apparently my 5 year old can now ride a 2-wheeler, scary!!), fish, 4WD and drink lots of beer I think. Mind you, they do it all in style with a generator and tv to watch the Swannies. They wouldn't even contemplate going if it meant missing their beloved Swannies (sorry Natasha I know you going to laugh!!).


So, I painted this little cupboard that I have had for ages (I bought it in anticipation of having a girl one day, but it has now ended up in my entry). I think it looks very cute. Now what else can I paint........

Hi Sharon, it was a dulux colour - sea green and i added a couple of drops of this to a white base and fluked it really!
