Three sideboards found their forever homes this week and I am so grateful💚

This gorgeous Olive green beauty was the one that has me the most excited to share. She’s headed to a very special place, my childhood friend’s home in Thirsk! There’s something so lovely about a piece you’ve lovingly restored going to someone who already means so much to you.

Inside there’s a little surprise, she’s lined with the most wonderful vintage “Chromatic Scale of Colours” print. All those swirling reds, blues and golds tucked away where only she’ll see them each time she opens a drawer. I love adding these little unexpected details, it’s what makes a piece feel truly one of a kind.

Brass handles polished, curves sanded smooth, and that green paint I can’t stop using lately, she was a joy from start to finish.Sealed with Love🥰

Well, well, well… 👀

Sideboard #2 has officially found her forever home! This beauty with linen fold doors dressed up with gorgeous Redesign by Prima transfers, decided she wasn’t hanging around for long either.

Plot twist: both my sideboards this week sold to the same wonderful customer. A big thank you. I couldn’t bring myself to post them together though as each one worked far too hard for their glow-up to share the spotlight. 💗

They’re off to their new home this weekend, staying local, which makes my heart very happy indeed.

More gorgeousness coming soon — watch this space Sealed with Love

**SOLD **

This gorgeous sideboard has found her forever home, it didn’t take long and I am absolutely made up.

She started out tired, dated, and a bit unloved, but underneath she was just waiting for a new lease of life. Sanded back, stripped, undercoated, and given a bold new coat of cerise/magenta paint, brass handles cleaned up beautifully with a bit of elbow grease.

This one is staying locally. Thank you so much to everyone who followed along with the transformation photos and cheered her on, it genuinely means the world.💗Sealed with Love

Had a little Brasso polishing session last night and wow, what a difference! Kept all their age and character, just cleaned them right up. This sideboard’s getting the same custom paint colour as the Ercol sideboard— more updates coming as I work through the weekend 🎨 Sealed with Love

Somewhere in the hedgerow, autumn has arrived 🍂

A little mouse pauses beneath a bright red toadstool, her basket filling with blackberries and rosehips as the leaves turn gold around her. This is the Autumn plate from Royal Doulton’s Brambly Hedge Gift Collection — bone china, made in England, from Jill Barklem’s original illustrations.

I used to collect these years ago, and finding this one again felt like coming home to an old favourite. Rarer than its Summer companion, and in beautiful condition — not a chip or a crazing line in sight.

Now in my Etsy shop 🧡 Sealed with Love

We have made it to the weekend! 🎉

My job today is to empty my Welsh dresser as I am swapping it for a sideboard. So many books, but my greatest find was my sewing labels for my cushions, I just knew I had put them somewhere safe!

Anyone else got a stash of craft bits and bobs they swore they’d never lose? 😄
