Ah! The smell of fresh varnish in the morning!

Yesterday dawned a beautiful spring morning, so I set off to our nearest branch of Ikea. As any crafter will tell you, you can never have too much work surface so I was on a mission to buy another desktop & legs to increase my craftspace! Once my mission was accomplished I returned home to rearrange furniture & make room for my new desk.

An unforseen development was to move a chest of 'natural pine' drawers out of the room which is my craftspace into our bedroom, in which all the furniture is 'antique pine'. I spent a very therapeutic two hours sanding & colour varnishing said drawers, so they would be dry & ready to move this morning! The things I do for an extra metre or so of craft space!!
