A make-up artist has spent £30,000 turning a vintage plane into a salon in her BACK GARDEN.
Amber Scott, 25, launched her first salon yesterday within the rather unusual setting after she somehow managed to keep the plans for the salon secret for months, only telling her close friends just last night.
She started converting the 1957 Air Atlantique Convair CV-440 Metropolitan in March to create Runway Studios which will offer makeup services and haircuts.
The plane was a gift from her parents, Andrew and Tricia, who bought it ten years ago for £25,000 to convert it into a luxury B&B.It cost them a further £20,000 just to transport the plane from Coventry Airport, where they bought it, to Scotland, where it has been lying in their backyard ever since.
Converting the empty plane into a luxury salon cost more than £30,000 to convert the plane into the salon.
