Exhibition at Flowerfields




Last night the Creativity Thirst classmates and myself had a celebration evening to mark our progress and completion of the course, and what a night it was! We all got the opportunity to display our work at Flowerfields and even though we had seen each others work before, I was amazed at the quality of the displays. I was very proud!

Mad Hatter China Cabinet! - £110


















I went a bit crazy on this one, but i absolutely LOVE it!! It's a bright pop of colour! I think it would look fantastic for displays in a shop or at home stacked with cocktail glasses...

I bought it at refurnish (Coleraine) a month or two back and have been working on it since. I got the paint-colour custom made this time and finished it with a couple of coats of wax - I think wax gives much better protection that varnish. I ripped out the old pinky fabric and updated it with a black floral Laura Ashley wallpaper.
What do you all think?!

Zebra Stool



I bought this stool a few months back from my mum's charity shop (again!). I didn't know quite what to do with it until I found the fabric... This time, i used spray paint and quite like the even texture it gives. It is primed, painted, glossed, varnished and ready for sale on folksy and ebay
