All that painting was worth it in the end. I did a light blue for the outside with a bit of shabby painting to make it look less 'pristine'. The inside had two coats of white masonry paint, same for the floor then varnish. The sofa I got off ebay and also painted. If it stopped still, it got painted. We decked it last week, the slabs were a bit tatty looking, especially when I got paint on them!. I want to make some new cushion covers and generally 'pretty' it up, a bit at a time. Its a gorgeous space and ideal for my bear making in summer. Hubby has to do some sockets then I'll be sorted. With the decking, paint, sofa, its probably cost about £450 but worth every penny. I paid £300 for the actual house and they usually cost a lot more. So on a gorgeous day like this, I think I'll settle down with Country Living and enjoy my first try out of my den. Hope you can enjoy the weather too.
