PAINT JOB

 Finally the cupboard has been painted. It was difficult to decide on the colour but in the end I decided to keep it neutral and opted for Farrow and Ball ...colour Clunch.....I did two coats on the outside and just one on the inside. 
Un altro lavoro portato al termine .Il colore è di Farrow and Ball....colore Clunch.

This is how it was when I bought it.......It was likeable enough to leave it without painting....but
Il mobile era anche bellissimo cosi...senza vernice...ma 

A littlelook inside at some of my things......
Dentro il mobile.....qualche cosine carini.... 

An old Royal Doulton tureen lid....unfortunately the base broke a long time ago.

LATEST BARGAIN

 It was love at first sight....I wasn't looking for a piece of furniture...but...in a second hand market  I saw this...could be useful I thought......for books....dinner services....linen.. Seems to be very sturdy with its wooden shelves......
In un nuovo mercatino dell'usato ho visto questo mobili che subito volevo comprarlo.....anche se non avevo neanchè in mente di comprare quel giorno un mobili del genere...Ma pensando potevo essere molto utili...per tutti miei libri....servizi di piatti...biancheria di casa..Sembra molto robusto con le mensole di legno.

Now I have to decide to paint it or not. My first idea was to give it a shabby chic look using a creamy white paint but I quite like the way it looks as it is...what would you do ?
Adesso devo decidere di lasciare il colore naturale o di dare un tocco shabby con la vernice bianco panna...cosa devo fare....avete qualche consiglio ?

At the weekend I will have to find the right place for it ...then to fill it up.
Questo weekend avro tempo di trovare essatamento il posto giusto di tenerlo...poi a riempirlo.....
