Did you get #tasselhappy?

Above @mrsemilybarnes |@bymeeni| @womanshopsworld | @paperinkprints | @takecourageblog | @bespokebride | @sisterswhat | @bex_beltran It’s a sad day. It’s officially the end of #tasselhappy. A huge thank you to everyone who shared with all of us your creative tassel makes! I’ve loved seeing your take on Fall For DIY tutorial and your original tassel projects. They have all been amazing! Fortunately just because the competition is over it does not mean we have to stop loving how much fun a little fringing can bring to a project! While you are still all very welcome to keep sharing your tassel happy with me, the competition to win a… Read More

DIY Tassel Tablecloth Video

It is officially the last weekend of #tasselhappy! I’m for real this time. We will not be carrying this hashtag on any longer, no matter how much I love looking at your tassels! It’s over! So get your #tasselhappy posts in before Monday or you’ll miss out on the chance of winning this! But don’t worry. While we’re plotting away for our next hashtag competition you can still share your tassels and everything else creative with us on #wemakecollective and #fallfordiy. I’ve spent the last three weeks making tons of tassels, partly because I wanted to make this DIY tassel… Read More

DIY Solid Gold Letters

I know, I know. I’ve lured you here on false pretences. I hold my hands up – I have not found a way to DIY solid gold letters at home. If I had I’d be in Hawaii by now. Instead I’ve found the next best thing. Fake solid gold letters. After a long obsession with this oh so shiny gold contact paper (since this post) I finally decided on the first project I wanted to use it for. And it got MADE! I actually surprised myself with how easy this project was. I’ve had these letters waiting for a makeover… Read More

DIY Wire Tacos with Laura Ashley

If you’re a regular reader of Fall For DIY then you’re probably aware of our new fluffy friend and the havoc she causes where ever she goes. In most cases chewed cardboard and nibbled coasters are easily forgiven, but damage to an unreplaceable wire cable is a bit harder to let go. As much as we try to keep them out of harms reach there can often be a stray left dangling. And you can be sure she will sniff it out within minutes. So I’ve come up with a very DIY solution to our gnawing problem. These ‘DIY Wire… Read More

DIY Square Hanging Planter

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about clearing the clutter in my flat and creating spaces that are both functional and beautifully display our belongings. Because as much as I would love to just throw everything away and only have pretty things around me, there are definitely moments in life that require more than just a copper ring dish, test tube vase or woven wall hanging. I’ve begun with this IKEA shelving unit in my kitchen/diner. It might seem like an odd place to put a bookshelf but there’s nothing I love more than reading over a slow Sunday brunch…. Read More

Make it Easy | Pineapple Espadrilles

  You might remember this post from a few weeks back. It was lost in the great Blogging Catastrophy a month back and so, with the sun shining outside, this is the perfect time to repost!

Styling the Seasons | May

I’m pretty impressed with myself this month. Not only have I planned and executed this post before we’re even at the halfway point, but I’ve also combined my May – Styling the Seasons with a great DIY housewarming present I made for my mom’s new home. It’s ticking all the boxes today! May for me is about getting outside and getting full of fresh air and vitamin D. The leaves have all finally come back onto the trees and everywhere I go I end up carrying my coat because I’m not used to light layers yet and instinctively wrap up… Read More

DIY Mini Macaron Charms

I’ve been so excited all weekend to share this tutorial with you. I’ve had to enforce some serious self-constraint to stop myself posting the whole tutorial over on Instagram. If you follow Fall For DIY or We Make Collective you might have seen a few teaser photos cropping up. I just couldn’t help myself! Now spring is in full swing I’m trying to inject a little more colour into all aspects of my life and these DIY Mini Macaron charms are just the best way to brighten up anything! Make earrings, necklaces, push pins, keyring charms, embellish your clothes with them… Read More
