I have been up to my eyes in paint this past week. I'm still painting in the kitchen ....more cupboards, some little decorative shelves & a tall vintage china cabinet. It's a jolly good thing that I enjoy painting, is all that I can say. I do love to see something not so good-looking, turn into something pretty or at least something which enhances its surroundings. And my two chandeliers arrived ...but on checking them out, I discovered that one light was missing the crystal dangle thingy at the bottom, so an email has been sent off today, & hopefully the crystal dangle thingy will appear in the post soon. I can't wait to see the chandeliers hung up. I think they will be the 'icing on the cake' ....the 'piece de resistance' (said with a definite French accent). But there is still a lot more painting in the kitchen ahead of me, & my annual leave is now over, so I am back at work, & my painting efforts will be limited to my days off. Never mind. Every little bit will add up & before I know it, our kitchen will have been revamped & looking good .........
