The sun is shining here in Scotland, wooopiiiee do. Does this mean that summer has arrived?
This week I was again sought at the local sales room, where they sell everything and anything. I was on the
look out for some nice pieces of furniture that could be painted and used as display pieces in the stores.
I see all these wonderful make overs on pinterest and think "that looks easy" when in reality it ain't.
So I am now of the age that if I can not do it myself , I get some one who can. There is a lady locally that
is doing the "Annie Sloan" paint thing so I might end up going to her, even a class would do.
I had 5 items on my list but only won 2.
A very large heavy wooden table that might become my
kitchen table or maybe a class table because it is big.
And a small ladies desk with lots of cubby holes, a writing table and a few drawers.
This I want to paint, I am going to make it into my Tim Holtz display table.
I had someone ask how to find my pintrest boards, well the way I see it , I don't have to pin much. I leave it
to some girls I know to spend days on there picking the best ideas and pinning then to their boards. SO I just follow them and safe a lot of time. It's amazing that sometimes its the same work they pin, especially Stampin Up cards, those are real popular.
So for those who need to know, here I am on PINTEREST.
Finally I see we have 2000 followers, thank you all so much for your interest and support in our wee
Scottish stamp company.
Therefor we have a few treats in store next week, stay turned. I just have to check everything with Gayle and Mark before I start handing out candy.
