On the box

Painting woodwork and walls at the end of the hall - first coat of primer and undercoat on everything except the shelves.

Had to stop at 6.00pm prompt to wash the paint off my hands and get changed for a meal at John C's. Delicious food, excellent wine, and good company. What a treat!

Found this box at the back of the old wardrobe. It contains some precious things - cards, some silver rings that no longer fit my fingers, and a silver dragon brooch. I painted the design on top of the box over 20 years ago, in silver metallic paint on blue-grey wood stain. No idea what inspired the pattern. Looks like a strange labyrinth in which each of the paths comes to an abrupt end!
