Hi there! Thanks for stopping by today. I thought I’d hunt out some ways to display your photos at home. If you’re like me, you need a push to even get them printed out these days. Most of mine sit on my phone or Instagram, but I really do enjoy them more when they are […]
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by today. I added a macrame hanging chair to my outdoor area last weekend and Instagram loved it, so I thought I’d share all the details over here. I’ve always wanted a hanging chair, but didn’t want to pay a fortune. I had the perfect corner in my outdoor area […]
I wanted a fake hanging plant, but they are so expensive (well I think they are!). So of course I decided to come up with my own idea… My son has always had a real hanging plant in his bedroom (you’ll see below), but he’s had about 3 lately as they just don’t love it […]
It’s school holidays and I have a child who is always busting to ‘build something’ (hence wanting to be a builder!). Sooooo I was a bit sick of my current coffee table and thought we could whip up a new one. My husband has an endless supply of pallets at his work. If you get […]
Yesterday I turned 3 scarves in to cushions in about 20 minutes. I’ve been having what I call “cushion rage” lately… I hated everything I saw in the shops, I hated what I already owned and if I did see one I liked I was not spending $65. Soooooo I decided to do a DIY! […]
I have a good sized walk-in-pantry. It’s behind my kitchen. You can see the fridge above on the left and then the photo below you can see the fridge again, so it’s tucked behind the kitchen. It’s pretty big, and I love it! But when we built the house 5 years ago, I had to […]
Artificial turf has become very popular. When people started using it in their backyards a few years ago I was very skeptical – we probably all were. I was a little cringey and unsure of it. BUT it’s come a long way in the last couple of years. There’s been a big improvement in the […]
How to paint furniture Painting furniture is such a cheap and easy way to transform something old in to a feature piece. The internet is full of ideas on how to do this. You can paint chairs, dressers, console tables, frames, mirrors and so much more. I’ve painted lots of things over the years. I […]
Macrame is still big! Actually, do you think it’s getting BIGGER? The huge retail stores are even selling them. And tutorials are ALL over the place. Did you want to make one yourself? They are pretty cheap to do, and once you’ve mastered a few knot skills you can make them bigger and better. I […]
I did this under the kitchen sink storage DIY a while ago, but because it’s the beginning of the year and we all seem to be obsessed with cleaning and culling I thought I might re-post it. Isn’t she pretty? Ha! Jokes! What a mess. I bet yours isn’t much better? It’s such an awkward […]
If you’ve been hanging around on my blog for a while you’ll know that I am quite obsessed with succulents and growing them. My girlfriend gave me a few from her garden a while ago and since then I have been moving and spreading them around. You can see from below they just keep growing […]
I recently had another opportunity to add a shaftless skylight in my bathroom thanks to illume™ Shaftless Solar Skylights. I used one previously in my home office and I was keen to also get one in my main bathroom. It’s a three-way bathroom, so there is no window in the vanity/sink area. It can get […]
