Favourite Finds

This old chair was very sad when I found it at the Everything Shop in Sutton Forest - it was really only good for firewood! But with some clever repairs, a coat of paint and new cushion cover, voila - the funny old chair is now the beautiful chair!

I found this lovely old croquet set on eBay, USA - it took a very long time to get through Customs but was well worth the wait.

I spotted four of these Chippendale chairs in a secondhand shop - they were stained in rosewood and had ugly pink velvet seats. I re-painted them black and re-upholstered the seats in linen. A fabulous find!
