A late bootsale blog

Last weekend I went bootying on my own..............bliss!  Didn't get very much but am pleased with what I did get............
I thought this £1 "tree of love" picture would be nice either in our new hallway or in with the wall of hearts above our bed

These sewing magazines all contain housey bits to make and were only 10p each

I also had to pop into Homebase to buy a new toilet seat of all things! But just had to get these.... and only 99p each minus 15% as I had a voucher.

The Ta....da..............moment!!

Now, do you remember the screen which I bought from ebay for £1.63??  It looked like this

Then I showed you some pictures where I had started the slow process of sticking on squares of wallpaper in a patchwork effect.  Now for the "ta da" moment...................are you ready.....................you are going to be astonished.........














Told you!! LOL!!
I just got fed up with never having the time or motivation to transform the screen.  With the arrival of Cocoa the rabbit, I thought with some panels being removed and replaced with netting and some expert DIY that only my dad could provide............we would end up with a lovely big cheap run for her!!  So good Ole Dad - here it is and Cocoa loves it!!
And what about daughters clothes - well we invested in a lovely pine wardrobe and matching chest of drawers - so everyones happy!
