Project Thursday

A day off from work! Rare and needed. I was just lounging in my onesie,and the posts knocked ith my new eBay find. The household have turned their noses up at it, but I see potential!
This cute but shabby little 60's sewing box cost me all of £12.55. Whoever was selling, literally slapped a terrible coat of white paint over the nasty varnished wood (and the hinges....I HATE that), and chucked it in the post, loose screws and all.

I took it apart, cleaned the metalwork, and gave it a couple of coats of Craig & Rose 'Morris Blue'.
I kinda love it now!
