A mum claims she’s saved THOUSANDS by painting cheap charity shop furniture – turning her home into a ‘love it or hate it’ shabby chic heaven.

Elaina Sanches, 48, started DIY and crafting six years ago after having to give up her job as a carer for the elderly when her son Luke was diagnosed with autism.

She has now transformed the kitchen, bedroom and downstairs bathroom of her four-bedroom home in Maesteg, Wales, in a pastel-filled, chintzy kitsch ‘real life doll’s house’ which she admits is divisive when guests come round but which she loves.

The mum-of-one estimates she’s completed the entire transformation for just hundreds – spending as little as £4 on each piece of furniture from charity shops, which she revamps in her own quirky style with just a lick of paint.
