morning ladies What a stunning start to the day we have.
It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do, isn't it, OHH. But as you say, it highlights the other bits! We had a similar problem with handles and ended up filling the holes and replacing them when I painted a dressing table. It was an old varnished piece and the varnish was peeling off and needed a tidy up.
The carpenters are 'aiming' to start their work today, fingers crossed they do. MrK is going to ask them to take down the wooden frame the old switch board was mounted on and once that is gone, I can paint and he can fit new scotia board.
Today the plan is to sort through the scrap metal and load the car up along with all the plastic plant containers we can recycle at Mitre 10. I'll have to give them a clean first. And there are piles of weeds and prunings I can top the wheelie bin up with ready for the binman tomorrow.
We must have gremlins as last evening the vacuum cleaner turned itself on... twice! It wasn't charging, just sitting in its stand. Gave us a heck of a fright lol.
We watched the Mr Bates doco and wow, that mini series was incredibly accurate, wasn't it.
The builder has texted, he will be here just after 8.00am, it's all go!
Happy crafting
