The journey of 'Olive' - Video 1
This is the first video in a series, of the journey of 'Olive'. Olive began life as a modern piece of furniture from a well know 'Swedish' furniture store.
She was preloved and in very good condition but just needed to look a little more attractive and stylish.

All finished at last!
Project No-Name became 'Lilac' in August.
She was given her name by Claire P, a lucky competition winner.
The video below is a summary of her upcycling journey - from the start, when she was destined for
landfill, to the end where she became a bespoke and beautiful finished piece. I absolutely loved working on her. She is unusual, and unique, there will never be another like her. The person that purchases Lilac will be one very lucky person!
