DIY Needle Felted Pom Pom Cushion | @fallfordiy

DIY Needle Felted Pom Pom Cushion

Redecorating the baby’s room as renewed my love affair with cushions. Specifically DIY cushions. They have so much creative potential and after the success of my first needle felted cushion post, I’ve been meaning to use the technique again. This time it’s something a little bit more fun and colourful. I want to keep everything in the nursery cheerful and this colour combination is perfect for a gender neutral space that doesn’t rely too heavily on grey and white. It’s not that I don’t love the gorgeous rooms that make the most of these neutral colours. I just don’t want… Read More

FREE Printable Content Planners | @fallfordiy

FREE Printable Monthly Content Planner

I’ve done the unthinkable this year and haven’t invested in a planner… I know. I’ve gone rogue. But I have my reasons. I always have the best intentions to use my chosen planner in all its meal planning, gratitude seeking, organisational glory. But when it comes down to it I end up going off-piste into a notebook or a phone app for either pure convenience or physical space. After trying to train myself to work in the spaces provided for years I’ve finally come around to the fact that my brain dumps need more flexibility. This doesn’t mean I still can’t benefit… Read More

Top 10 DIY Posts 2017 | @fallfordiy

Top 10 DIY Posts of 2017

Hello! Happy New Year everyone! I hope you’ve all enjoyed a fabulous winter break and are feeling refreshed and ready for 2018. At this time of year I always like to look back on the last one from a creative perspective. Building up to the end of the year is usually chaotic for me and I can get out of sync with my brand ethos. It’s pretty easy to get stuck in my own ways and spend time on projects because I want/need to do them, rather than what is helpful and interesting. Taking a moment to step back and analyse the… Read More

DIY Stocking Gift Wrap | @fallfordiy

DIY Parcel Paper Stocking Gift Wrap

I always plan on making more gifts than I actually do. Even with the best intentions time seems to speed up in December and I never get around to ticking everything off the list (which gets longer every year of course!) But I do like to get creative with wrapping my presents, whether I’ve made them or not. In the past I’ve mostly used gift toppers to make my presents more interesting, but this year I’ve upped my game and made this DIY parcel paper stocking gift wrap. You guys know how much I love finding a use for parcel… Read More

DIY Gold Dipped Wooden Tree Decorations | @fallfordiy

DIY Gold Dipped Wooden Tree Decorations

I’m back with another quick decoration DIY today. Wood has a gorgeous natural, Skandi feel when you decorate your tree with it. So I’m keeping it minimal with these wood circles. I’m a big believer that a little bit of gold goes a long way at this time of year. And you need that shiny surface to reflect all those twinkly lights! Keep scrolling for more instructions.

DIY Air Dry Clay Hanging Christmas Ornaments | @fallfordiy

DIY Air Dry Hanging Festive Ornaments Tutorial

No matter how hard I try to be organised at this time of year I always end up with more gift making, decorating and elaborate wrapping on my to do list than I have time for. So the last minute rush is always a part of my festive traditions. I’m hosting this year so I know I’ll still be running around on Christmas eve, prepping for the big day. But doesn’t it make it all the sweeter when you can finally relax (even if this is on Boxing Day) and put your feet up knowing it’s all done for another… Read More

DIY Grapefruit & Thyme Sugar Scrub | @fallfordiy

DIY Pink Grapefruit & Thyme Sugar Scrub Stocking Filler

Stocking fillers are actually my favourite gifts to DIY. There’s no pressure and you don’t have to spend a lot of money to make something that will be happily received. But perhaps the best thing about crafting stocking fillers is that you can make an extra one of everything for yourself! That’s what I’ve done with this gorgeous sugar scrub and I’m hella glad I did! I’ve been using this on my lips for just a couple of days. Pregnancy has given me the dryest skin, but my lips are smooth and soft after just a couple of scrubs. Next up… Read More

Gift Guide | Things you Wish they’d Buy You

Ok, so your list might be a little longer for Santa this year, but if you’re like me whenever the question comes up it’s always a struggle to actually give an answer. I’m no saint. Of course there are tons of things that I actually want for Christmas, but I forget exactly what they are as soon as anyone else need to know. What’s that all about? Maybe it’s just knowing exactly what I want and being too picky to trust anyone else to get it right. Does that make me a control freak? But that’s what the internet is… Read More
