Barrington Pottery New workshop update.

We were handed the keys to the new barn on Friday at 4pm
Just at the start of a Bank Holiday weekend.
So on the Saturday Marion started Lime washing 
the showroom walls.
While I carried on potting in the workshop. 
This was the space on Saturday morning. 
 The floor is great but some areas still need sorting.
As ever Caddy was never far away. 
 On Sunday Night we stripped out the old showroom.
This is the area we are losing so the overall space
 isn't that much bigger. 
 Lime wash goes on this colour
 But dries to this colour.
Don't ask how much it costs
I nearly fell over in the specialist paint store.
 Pots waiting for a new home.
 We closed all day today to crack on with the displays and walls.
We have all day tomorrow to get it finished 
and we will be open again on Thursday.
We may be in our Pajama's and Slippers
but we will be Open.

Congratulations! It looks like the end is in sight!
Kudos to Marion for taking on the Lime washing!
I love the fact that you have taken us through the whole process with photos and comments.
