If I’m heading to my local farmers market, my must have item is a net bag, because, you know, I’ve got to show off all that beautiful veg I’m buying while I’m there. But also because as well as being the height of supermarket chic, net bags are amazingly practical. More than you think (because yeah, a bag with a hundred holes in doesn’t immediately scream practicality). They fold down small so you down need to carry a huge handbag. In fact I usually carry one in each of my smaller bags for those ‘just in case’ moments. Which if… Read More
Choosing the Right Laminate Flooring – Where to Start
This post has been sponsored by Direct Wood Flooring. All opinions are my own. It’s no secret I love laminate floor. I know, real wood flooring is amazing and don’t get me wrong, I’d love to deck out my whole house in a gorgeous chevron frosted oak (a girl can dream). While I am saving all my pennies to make it happen in just my kitchen, the rest of my home needs a more budget option. My house is a relatively new build. It’s about 10 years old and squeezed into the place a garage once stood. I’m guessing it… Read More
DIY IKEA Decor Hack: Update Small Bedroom Storage with Wooden Detail
When space is limited, you need to make each piece of furniture count. Our bedroom is a little on the snug side, so each piece needs a purpose and to be beautiful. There’s no blending in with the rest of the furniture, because well, there is no rest of the furniture! I had tried to get away with having a very minimal amount of storage in this room, but as our bathroom is storage sparse also (don’t get me started on how badly this space has been designed) my products and makeup were starting to make a home on every… Read More
How to Make Easter Eggs – Five Ways
Can I just start with a big thank you to Hobbycraft for sponsoring this post! I’m living the dream making chocolate eggs for this blog! For me Easter is all about the chocolate egg. I’m not usually the biggest chocolate fan, but at this time of year I can make an exception. This year instead of stocking up on basic eggs, I’m doing something a little bit special and making ours. It’s true. You could walk into just about any shop that sells food and buy yourself an egg that would do the job, no matter your budget or… Read More
DIY Terracotta Clay Hanging Planters
Guys, I’m falling back in love with clay! Ok, we never really fell out of love, but this is the first clay project I’ve (successfully) done since Ollen was born… over one year ago. And I call myself a craft blogger. The shame! Don’t worry though (because of course, you’re all panicking because it’s been a while since I’ve been on the clay) I have already got another clay project in the works for you. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves! I have to thank the Make it Challenge ladies for asking me to join in with this Springs… Read More
DIY Wooden Magazine Holder
AD | This post is sponsored by Gorilla Glue! Is it just me or does anyone else love catalogues? I know they aren’t the most environmentally friendly item, so I don’t go out of my way to find them, but when you get one with an online order or through the letter box I pour over the pages like it’s ‘in real life’ Pinterest. Which, yes is hilariously ironic because we all know catalogues came WAY before Pinterest, but you get what I’m saying. Basically, I don’t have to be on my phone/laptop/computer to see cute things and it feels… Read More
DIY Dowel Magazine Shelf
This might just be one of my favourite DIY’s of all time. Can I say that? It’s like picking out your favourite child… If you had like 800 of them. Yeah, that metaphor went uncomfortably wrong towards the end there. Anyway, I really like this DIY ok. And it’s not just because it looks great. Creating something that looks complicated or difficult, but is actually very easy is my motivation in life. I currently use this shelf as a place for Ollen’s books. It is in arms reach when he stands on the sofa, which means any magazines will get… Read More
DIY Hand Stamped Play Tent
This post was sponsored by Grand Illusions. Thank you for providing me with the Vintage Paint to make the perfect play tent for Ollen! I knew I wanted to make Ollen something cute for his birthday. Christmas was a whirlwind and even though it was less than two months ago I can’t even remember what we gave him! It’s why I love making gifts they’re so much more memorable. So with this in mind, I decided to make at least one gift for his birthday at the end of January. He’d been getting himself into some sticky situations, literally getting… Read More
