Hello everyone thank you for the kind comments, by the time i had scrubbed the fag smoke off it and the mold, it didn't need stripping, I think it had never been touched since it was made, I just let it dry out and painted it with a small roller, 2 coats of duck egg paint from holnebase (ah hm), iam just at the moment doing a large dresser in the same colour to match, and a very kind jumbletowner gave me a table and chairs so fek it i did the legs of that too, i might do the chairs as well and hope the paint runs out soon as iam looking at the fridge and it seems to be cowering in the corner.

thank you everyone

Jessi1, I have a childs size monks bench I've been meaning to do this to for ages, feel free to to take it on if you run out of projects, I'll provide the coffee & buns lol!

That looks fantastic...a real treasure. They don't make them like that anymore. You did a wonderful job and the colour is my absolute favourite. Well done!

this is such a great job! looks like new. how did the dresser turn out?
