The first thing to do was to treat the woodworm, then give the whole thing a good clean.
Next two coats of my favourite Annie Sloane paint in Country Grey. I like this colour as it has a lovely vintage look when it is rubbed down and waxed.
I found some pretty floral fabrics for inside. A padded pinboard on the lid and linings for the inside.
All finished and ready to put in my Christmas fair at Cowslip.
I've got a couple more to finish, can't resist an old sewing box!!!
Enjoy the rest of your week.
