Hello everyone, thank you so much for all your support following me and my sustainable interiors business here 🙏❤️ I really appreciate all the likes and follows and visits and purchases and chats over the last six months as I’ve grown my little space in the Hall at Deeside Antiques ❤️
I’ve now got a more personal project to share. I’ve started a fundraiser on GoFundMe and would appreciate your support. Every single share and donation makes a difference and helps me get closer to my goal!
A couple of years ago I bought a converted bus - Big Blue. I am passionate about sustainability and bringing old things back to life so she became my passion project. Last year I put a lot of time and money into getting her back on her wheels but circumstances changed and she’s in England and I’m in Scotland so it’s had its challenges!
I’ve run out of funds and have considered all my options including selling her. Today I had a difficult decision to make and was considering putting her to auction where quite likely she’d end up being scrapped. I couldn’t do that without first giving her one last chance to shine again. She’d be an amazing off-grid home or AirBnB - her bones are great for a 25 year old!
So I’ve taken a deep breath and launched a Gofundme page to raise the initial £5000 that’s essential to get her back on the road and prevent her rusting away where she is. I’d love your help, whatever you feel able to. There’s more details on the page but wouldn’t it be amazing to look back and think “We’ve Saved Big Blue!”
If this touches you please contribute what you feel and spread the word - perhaps one day we can sit on her stoep with a coffee in hand in a beautiful spot ❤️
