I've started work on my table ...at last...

When I moved to my new house my gran gave me this dodgy old 60s-70s coffee table. It's just the right size for my corset patterning so I planned to re-paint it and decorate it with a 50s pin-up girl. Now 6 months later I'm finally getting round to it.

I was orignally going to paint it white gloss and with the shelf underneath gloss read and then the lady in full colour...but I'm on a tight budget and didn't want to spend £5 on a tin of red. So I've mixed some red acrylic with the white gloss to make a cool sugery pink, (It's taken much much longer to dry as a result) And tonight I'm painting the lady - only now I think I will do her only in shades of pink.

Anyways, I've just typed way more detail than I meant to. I'll post some pictures later, when it's all finished...
