I've spent all winter sewing, sawing, drilling and glueing to give Betsy's interior a new look.
No longer is she a garden shed on wheels. All the wood work was in good condition so it was mostly working on soft furnishings and door panels.

Thought i would share the before and after photos in case it helps anyone else but my descriptions aren't very detailed so i'm happy to answer questions.

Not sure what is the best way to display the photos (Yes i read the FAQs but not sure i understood the answers) is so here is my first attempt at posting them
The full gallery with my hurried descriptions:

Looks good. What did you cover the furniture with out of interest? Is it vinyl?

A heavy weight upholstery plaid for the seat, vinyl for the walls.

Looking good..... but tell me why does the dog always sit on whatever you are working on when you put it on the floor????
Last time I tried to roll up the tent in the garden the dog sat in the middle :roll:

in the web browser: right click on the pic, click open picture in new window then copy the URL adress to clipboard.
Paste the link into your post, highlight it then click on the img button above
