A bit of revamping!

T'other night hubby was wallpapering the stairs and to not feel left out I had a peep in the garage at some of the things that had followed me home from an auction last month.

I got some hot water and soapy suds and got to work!!!!!!!


I gave this old vintage bath box a good old scrub ready for a repaint (will let you know how it looks when its finished).  Then moved on to the next project.


I got this as part of an auction lot (it came with the box above) and was not entirely sure I actually wanted it.  But after buying a staple gun from the car boot at the weekend I wanted something to practice on.  I got a few bits of fabric from my stash and set to work.........


I managed to line the inside and am pretty impressed with my first go!!!!!
 
 
The end product what do you think?  I can't believe it's actually the same box : )
