And while we're all still on the topic...(well, a couple anyway)

Having not seen much of the Royal Wedding saga on TV or anywhere really (walk around in a daze much?) I was charmed by the sweet simplicity of the latest grand shin-dig.



Anyway, Push on to the weekend...I know it will be worth it.

Bedside Tables in Under a Week!

Our DIY mission (which we perhaps too hastily accepted?) is to turn two of these yellowed, weather & time damaged bedside tables into a lovely wedding gift for my cousin who is getting married this weekend... [I pause for the effect of that statement to take place] ...!

Have we left it too late?!

Yikes!  Ok, better get collecting some inspiration!!...

What a gorgeous Frenched grey little cabinet from Paint Me White.  We could learn a few tricks from their recycled vintage expertise!  Here's the before...

Perhaps something shiny & glamourous such as this Mirror bedside table by Graham & Green.
