Day 2371 Light in our darkness

9th February 2024

I was getting a little concerned that we hadn’t sold anything so far this month. We had the dining table and chairs that we recently finished, but there was very little interest. We also had a number of pieces in various stages of work, but we really had to pull our finger out.

We still had the large mid century style dresser that although we had sold it at the end of last month. The buyer wanted us to repaint it black, which we did, but that didn’t count.

I was working furiously to get the long dresser we collected earlier this week, ready for Kelli to paint, but the prospect looked bleak.

It was in the afternoon that Kelli announced that we had sold the table and chairs to the same lady who had already bought a number of pieces that we were holding until March, so out of the gloom came a chink of light.

Kelli sent a picture of the repainted black dresser to the buyer, and she was so impressed she asked us to repaint two dressers she had, to match, the chink was getting bigger.
