DIY Raffia Hanging Planter Kit

This post has been sponsored by online repair hub Sugru.com If there’s something I can’t get enough of in my home it’s hanging plants. We’ve never had a lot of floor space to play with, but with two children literally taking over every usable corner our plants have been pushed out, or at least up. Hanging planters are a great way to add all the greenery your heart desires without compromising on usable surface space.  Our bay window is the perfect space for our growing plant family. Almost any plant I place here thrives and it’s a great way to… Read More

I wrote a book!

Does anyone else feel like this year has simultaneously been the fastest and slowest of their life. So much and so little has happened at the same time. I look back and the new year feels like forever ago, yet I don’t know where all that time has gone. As well as the years events, being pregnant definitely messes up your timeline. You’re constantly waiting for something to happen but also trying to get a million jobs ticked off the to do list before the event. For me one of the bigger tasks for the year was finishing my book….

DIY Dyed Salt Dough Star Decorations

I’m quickly learning that my usual crafty Christmas is going to be a little pared down this year. A toddler and a newborn are keeping me on my toes and just doing the bare minimum, decor wise, has become an ask. There is something slightly magical about midnight decorating… even if you are falling asleep as you do it! So with that in mind I wanted to try some family crafts which might not end up looking like a half finished scribble on a bit of paper. Ollen gets bored of colouring very quickly but he really enjoys rolling out… Read More

Small Space Shelving for Shelfie Styling Anywhere!

There are a few corners in our home that could really benefit from a shelf. Sometimes for an extra bit of (always needed) storage, but sometimes just for visual effect. While I always have a few DIY ideas up my sleeve, I’ve been keeping an eye out for the perfect ready built shelf for a small corner in my living room for some time. I’m prepared to spend a little more on this space to get the right piece, but I always look at budget options as well, because who doesn’t like a bargain? Here are my favourite slimline shelving… Read More

How to DIY Painted Wall Arches

I had planned to paint the whole wall behind my bed, but this was so much quicker and as I was changing up my IKEA SVALNÄS system anyway, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to go big! Even though I was pretty happy with what… Read More

Make this Easy Letter Cake for any Celebration

This post has been sponsored by Samsung. Is there any better way to celebrate than with cake? I wanted to make a pretty big deal out of Father’s Day this year. Alex has been an incredible dad and partner (even more than usual) this past few months and he really deserves a bit of pampering. First port of call, a cake. And not just any cake. I’m getting a bit more adventurous with my baking plans now I have an oven that can cope with them. (If you want to read all about my interesting previous oven and the revelation… Read More
