Doing something new with what is old.......

Picture
Ive been decorating the Living Room....stripped off the old wallpaper that Ive been painting over for the past 20 years...down to the plaster, which turned out to have lots of holes in it! Filled, sanded and painted....and painted again...and again and...then again.  Finally I have a huge, clean 'canvas', like a gallery wall.  I wonder what will hang there??
The shelf is the old bench that I used to sit on when I was a little girl.  It sat in the shop of my Mum and Dad's Bakery.  I used to pick up the old bits of dough and pastry and make 'cakes'.....everyday a man came in and bought a loaf of bread and one of my 'cakes'....I would sit on this bench and wait for him ............. I like it still being in my life x
