A post where your imagination plays a part.

HERE 
is where I'd like you to imagine below corner unit in a state of unpainted as I yet again have not taken a before photo! 

I don't plan to do things, 
they seem to just happen and suddenly before I know it I am and halfway through a project and I think "Amazing how different this thing looks painted, if there only was a before photo I could share it on the blog."
This time the project looked like this when the thought occurred.
I had painted the untreated wood twice with grey undercoat. 
Why grey you ask, well it had to be grey or white as that was all I had at home and when I decide to paint I want to paint NOW not go shopping for paint or materials. 
Told you I don't plan to do things.
 and here is the finished result, carefully painted. 
I had to do three of four coats to cover properly but the finished result looks great.
This little beauty is now in the downstairs bathroom.
I also painted a very tired looking loo roll holder which now is more pleasing to look at.
 Again, no before photo so you'll just have to imagine the flaky rusty bits....
If I ever get around to finishing that room it will look great and I might show you more than the grimy bits lurking along the wall in this photo.
