Join Bon Voyage Friends as we share stories of travel and life adventures. The journey began over 10 years ago when Alpha Delta Pi sorority sisters, Diana and Monica traveled to Finland for a university conference. While dining at a Spanish restaurant in the tiny Finnish town of Porvoo-Borga, they came up with the idea to select a new destination each year for an annual holiday. Raising their glasses of sangria, the tradition began. Cheers!

Sunny Sunday- super scrimper project
After watching numerous DIY and home improvement programs I took advantage of this opportunity. There were 4 chairs on facebay for £15 that we're not in the best condition with well-worn wood and stained polka dot fabric. Using chalk paint I gave them the 'D Factor' and turned them into shabby chic!! I used a heavy duty stapler and some scraps of material I had in my craft drawer to recover the seats. Then a had some pots of chalk paint in the shed, so spent the morning painting and waxing chairs. The whole thing took about 3 hours to complete. It's my fFirst project and I'm super proud!
