royal britannia

I have again been turning trash into treasure!
This time with a right British theme and a very cool Union Jack.

VCH's response was: We are Australian why didn't you do the Australian flag?
My reply was: Because Union Jacks are in right now, this is part of our flag and even the Americans are into them and they don't even have it as part of their flag!
Silly man!

 
This is what the very sad $2 table looked like when I got it at a garage sale the other week.

She looks so cool now!

 This wine glass is part of my Christmas collection that I am doing up for my next lot of market stalls.
So cool and very pretty and the best thing- the glitter doesn't come off!
I will do a little tutorial another day and reveal all my secrets.

So off to another day full of redeeming other people's junk into wonderful treasures!
Catch you later in the week!

      Thanks, the distressing wasn't entirely intentional- even though I usually distress every thing, but the white came off with the masking tape so I just went with the flow!

    Awesome job Deanne, that'll get snapped up in seconds flat I'd say :) You made me giggle too - silly men indeed!

    Love it - it will definitely get snapped up. If you'd made an Australian flag on top, it would have looked like a relic of the 70's I think! Love the sparkly wine glass too, very festive. xx

      Yes and it would be a lot harder to try and get the stars right!
