Dresser makeover in the pipeline
I recently bought a dresser for the Suzy Gaby and Maud premises. I will be using it to display china, glass and decorative objects. I'd like to paint it in a different colour, at the moment it is pale blue with a dark wax over it in places.
I do enjoy giving some pieces of furniture a fresh new look. I have a few ideas but haven't quite made up my mind yet about the final look. I had better decide soon though as I am starting on it tomorrow!
Miss P's carpet was fitted on Wednesday and here it is:
Miss P is so pleased with it. Just how she wanted her room to look.
Over the past few days we have been transferring furniture and decorative bits and pieces into Miss P's new bedroom. Her glass light looks perfect in the disused fireplace.
A lot of painting and work in the unit over the weekend but I am looking forward to it.
I also have a lot of photos to take for my new website!
Have a lovely weekend.
A bientôt!

Wishing you all the best!

I can't wait to see what you do with this treasure, particularly since your're going to use it to display china, glass and decorative objects.

The dresser is lovely...I so love that green light. Have fun. xoxoxo
Hi! Cant wait to see how the dresser will look like :)) happy painting !
Hello Isabelle, the dresser looks great now but I can imagine how besutifully you will transform her. And Miss P's bedroom is definitely striking. Very dramatic and a bit art-deco looking in the colours. Don't tell her that, she may not loke any vintage references! xx
I love Miss P's room and her lamp - would she like to come design my room.......?
I love the dresser, can't wait to see what you do with it

You are quite right to let your daughter choose the decor for her room. I hate it when you see childrens' rooms in magazines and they don't look like they are used by children at all and have obviously been designed by their parents. Looking forward to seeing the makeover on the dresser.
Thanks for visiting my blog and leading me tou your scrumptios blog! Im in love with your dresser - ive been looking out for one for ages but all the ones i see are way over priced. Hopefully your blog post will bring me luck! Look forward to following your blog Scarlett x
I take my hat off to you! How chuffed must your Miss P be, to have her way with her own room. You clever Mama you.
Hello Isabelle,
I'm so glad you visited my blog so that I could find yours. Such a lovely blog! I really like your style, and the area where you live in England looks just beautiful. I'll enjoy reading more from you.
Take care,
Susan

I also like Miss P's room and it's great thet it's hers and to her taste.
Good luck with the unit - a very exciting time for you just now I think.
Thankyou for becoming a follower of my blog. I see you have many interesting ventures on the go - I'm sure your daughter will love her room - it will be special - all chosen by her. Good luck with the new premises.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Now I know what this move, is about!
And I'm so happy to understand that this is not a living change. It's a business change.
So happy you will still be living in your cottage. Which I look forward to seeing views of. :-)
Sorry for the silly not-sure-comments I've been leaving here. But now I'm up-to-speed!
♥ Gentle hugs ♥
