Don’t you hate it when your towels just don’t smell fresh? It’s not usually until you start to dry yourself when you realise they need re-washing! Maybe you want to freshen up some old towels, or you’d like to really kill any dirt/bacteria trapped in your towels? It’s easy peasy…

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…

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…

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…

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…

If you just can’t find that perfect pendant light, or everything you see is out of your budget, why not have a little go at a DIY? There are lots of ideas on Pinterest and I gathered a few here for you today. I love the wire orb the best!…

Building a new house is a huge investment and emotionally it can be one of the most stressful things you’ll ever do. Luckily I love the process! I’ve built three times and renovated a few times so learning how to stick to a budget (but not comprise on what I…

I had wanted a barn door in this hallway space for a while. But it was just another project on my list… Then out of the blue my husband rang during the week and said he’d grab the work ute and come with me to get a new door for…
