Project 5
Upcycling Dot & Doris
These little old ladies were a pain from the get go.
Lessons I learned (hopefully permanently):
Find out if it is real wood or laminate before you view items
Clean items before starting
Have a plan before starting
Don’t spend a million hours on something you won’t make £1million on
Boring.
As someone who has raging ADHD, planning, preparation and using logic are not always front and centre – I like to DO.
But even if they have been a pain in the arse, I still enjoyed the process and am learning to take before photos to really be able to see, and how, how the work I put in is worthwhile.
Still not great at the during photos.
Oh my lord I nearly forgot to tell you they are on wheels!
Definitely a USP.
