FEBRUARY 2019 COMPETITION WINNERS
Thank you to all who entered our Make it Yours competition in February. It was a tough month for judging with so many inspirational upcycles and transformation projects to choose from. However, with much deliberation, we have chosen 10 runners up and our lucky top prize winner.
The top prize this month of £250 went to Pati Robins who painted the whole inside of her airing cupboard with a Dalmatian pattern using Rust-Oleum Chalkboard Paint to add a bit of depth to her amazing micro office! We love how inventive this is!
