PYF's en vacance, turned out to be a very practical time. We have alterations; please walk this way.
Yes, a new counter. It is constructed with housing joints from one display case top from
Cumbria, two kitchen doors found by the river in Oxford, 4 floorboards from Norfolk, an old
Ikea bed base from
Bethnal Green and a set of fairy lights from Dalston Market. All the shelves light up, it's stained
Mohogany on the outside and white gloss on the inside. I made it with lots of help from Louise and Jay.
Then, I thought it looked so good in the shop that it put the wall and door behind it to shame, so on Sunday night, me and Radio 3 knocked it down.
Louise took down the old storage systems and we now have a stage / studio, where we shall make a long thin
collapsible table with two benches either side, which we can use for classes, lunches, making, discussions and teas.
Oh, and if you have read this far, you might be nosy, which is fine, and here is the back of the counter, which has a built in bin, bag
depositary, and two stationary shelves.

I love the new part of the shop. So glad to know that the shelves are stationary and wont move even if they are full of stationery! Love M
