New Phone

Well I took the plunge and got a new phone! I had a look at this. I also had a play around with it. I knew I would drop and break it within the first few hours of having it.







 I then decided on this. The reason I decided to get this one is every one at work has it and my youngest daughter has one. So if I get stuck (which I did) She can help me.  

This also persuaded me  












A free Galaxy tablet came with it

Tad-Dah the drawers reveal

Tad-Dah The drawers

Here are the drawers with two coats of paint, Farrow and bBall Dimity.  The castors and the handles cleaned of paint. Who paints things without taking the handles off ?.

I wont use this particular paint again I really don't like it, I much prefer a chalk paint but that was all I had in.

Recycling

I needed a new lamp shade as the the one I did a few years ago was looking a little tatty. So I took two napkins a little glue and Tad-dah 

Then I had to nip out and look what I found on the road. It even has it's original Bakelite handles. I have just given it it's first coat of Farrow and Balls Dimity.

A Spring Clean!

A spring clean and a sort out!!

And here it is now all clean and sorted. I decided to put my dresser back together it looks better what do you think?

Oh and a little helper.
