    Hey Sandy, well done on your award. I don't think there is a Saturday that goes by that I don't tell an ebayer about your blog for inspiration on painting furniture… and I was also telling a customer about your floor too…so when your ears are ringing on Saturday arvos you know it is only me, haha. Love the shade and would love to be in the drawer. You need to open that shop soon…heaps of my coast customers would just LOVE it and they seem to be growing in number, cheers Katherine

    I just started following your blog a few weeks ago. I love seeing all of your projects. You have inspired me and given me encouragement to get back at refinishing furniture. Thank you!! I'm just working on little side tables, because I am recovering from two shoulder surgeries, but I can't thank you enough for blogging and sharing!!
    Many warm hugs, Laura
