We're feeling quite pleased with ourselves this week - a month or two ago we bought a lovely second hand dining table & chairs from Emmaus. The table was in lovely condition and so were the chairs - apart from the seat pads. So an expedition was made to Wightmans in Bungay, one of my favourite shops in the world, to choose fabric for the makeover. There was so much choice that we decided the cover two chairs in plain and two in chicken pattern, and I love the results. It's so satisfying to make old things look new. I wonder what I can do with my face!
Today I have been adding some glorious new semi precious stone pendants to the site, there are some real beauties. There is also a very unusual one which isn't actually made of stone. It is called Bowlerite and is made from vintage American bowling balls.. Talking of vintage - Dick has just arrived home, must go and make and cup of tea.

Thanks for that Liz! No intention of stopping, too many people read it, and I enjoy doing it anyway.
