finds...




not studio stuff, but i thought you might like to see my ebay find - a little 1950's kitchen cabinet i bought for £6. it was in fairly tatty state so i painted it pale blue for my laundry room - it's going to house the stuff for the washing - fabric conditioner and tablets and pegs and such like. i couldn't resist filling it with my finds from last week's charidy shop hunt with anna for the time being for an impromptu photoshoot - you have to imagine the plug sockets aren't there, i'm having problems with my clone tool of late...it's a terrible situation, up there with cheerios trodden in the carpet. grrrrrr.

Sheesh, don't get me started on Cheerios...bane of my life, fishing the little soggy buggers out the plughole.

it's the lack of vision that gets me. I see a nasty tacky old cupboardy thing that would be in the kind of house people have died in (We saw a few when we were house hunting)...you see a fresh eggshell lick of paint and carefully chosen objets and...wow.

I'm working on trying to see the potential.

What a fab find! I love finding old things and breathing new life into them. My coffee table is an old linen chest I bought at a second-hand store.

Nice! I likee very much. And those shiny tins? Old or new? Do I spot cute little wooden handles on them?
We must, we must, we must increase our bust, I mean, go to Burwash Manor soon :)
