I know I’m not alone when I say how much I’ve loved watching this weaving trend develop and grow. As a textile design graduate anything involving building up textures and creating fabrics gets my heart pumping and I’ve jealously looked on at all the beautiful pieces on Instagram and Etsy. I wanted to join in and be making them as well – so it’s taken a while but I’ve decided that I would just go ahead and get weaving. But before I did I spent some time thinking about what was stopping me in the first place? Writing this blog I… Read More
DIY Concrete Hexagon Coasters
My coaster obsession continues. Give me anything that have such a simple function and combine that with texture, shape and design and I’m sold. As well as being beautifully minimal these concrete hexagon coasters have a wonderful irregular unity. They fit as a set but also each have their own ‘flaws’ or personality. I’m not quite sure how I’ve become so besotted with my coaster collection but it’s growing rapidly and I need to find other uses to even up my coaster mug ratio again (or perhaps I just need more mugs?) Which is another reason why I love this DIY… Read More
Fall For DIY Mollie Makes Takeover!
If you’re a regular reader or follow me pretty much anywhere online you’ll probably already know that I took over Mollie Makes Instagram and Pinterest last week. It was such fun! Hello to all you guys who might have found out about this little blog through the takeover. It’s a massive pleasure to have you here! You guys are ace. Throughout the take over I posted a few pictures of me putting some of my crochet skills to good use. I love an evening spent under a blanket stitching away but I always set my goals to high and tend… Read More
DIY Dotted Wall Clock
The clock face is definitely experiencing a comeback right now. I’m in dire need of a beautiful large face watch with a lovely beige strap. You know, if anyone reading just happens to make/sell them and wants to send one my way… I’ll take lots of pretty Instagram pictures… please!? Oh well, shameless request over with. In all seriousness I really do love the new contemporary patterns and designs popping up on our time pieces in the past few years so I couldn’t resist giving one a go. I’ve never done anything with clock mechanisms before so I decided to… Read More
DIY Mark Jacobs inspired Pretzel Earrings
I’m absolutely loving foodie accessories at the moment. These DIY pretzel earrings are inspired by a gorgeous Mark Jacobs earring design that are now sold out! You can’t even buy them anymore. Fear not, because you can whip these little treats up in no time at all for a fraction of the price. Always a bonus! Then team them up with this Donut Necklace for the perfect sweet and savoury combo.. a little overboard, really? Ok. Alternate them instead. You can find out how to make these earrings using the tutorial I wrote over at Brit+Co. YUM!!
DIY Bright Tipped Faux Antler
I’m a little late to the antler party. Living with the vegan boy means decorating the house with animal parts (for want of a better word) is pretty much a no go. Even though I always loved the natural aesthetic of stag antlers and animal hide it weighed on my conscious and it’s just something I don’t think I could live with but when it comes to making faux animal accessories I’m totally on board! But I’m guessing that doesn’t surprise anyone here, and while we’re at it why not make it a little more colourful? Materials: Air dry clay… Read More
Vegan Frosted Doughnut Recipe
The boy has been dropping enough hints about how he’s been craving doughnuts recently. As a vegan it’s not as easy for him to just pop out and get his sugar fix so I like to bake him (and as a by product, myself) treats every now and then. But in the process I’ve discovered vegan baking is not so easy, (ie, the birthday cake of 2014 fiasco. Flattest/savoury/avocado cake ever… he still ate it, bless him) but I’ve actually amazed myself with these vegan doughnuts so I thought I’d share the recipe with you guys. Is the correct spelling… Read More
DIY Folded Clay Ring Dish
Today is the first day of my Mollie Makes takeover! I’m already having a great time grammin’ away some of the things I love the most and Pinning a huge list of beautiful and useful ways to get organised for 2015! So my latest DIY post over at Design*Sponge today could not be timed more perfectly! These folded clay ring dishes are perfect for keeping the smaller things organised and close to hand when you need them. I’m currently using them for jewellery storage and a safe (and easy to find) place to put my keys. No more panic in the… Read More
