All product were kindly provided by Hobbycraft. So here I am with a non-baby related DIY project, who would have thought it?
Read MorePretty Little Thing
Since Maggie was born I’ve often dressed her in headbands because usually she isn’t wearing particularly girly outfits or colours and so it’s the easiest way to avoid the question, ‘is it a boy or a girl?’ Having said that I’ve definitely still been asked if she was a boy whilst sporting a bow on…
Read MoreAbstract Shapes: Make Your Own Earrings
I’ve brought you a fair few DIY earrings over the last year, partly because they’re so easy to make and secondly as we still seem to be riding the statement earring trend. A load of gorgeous abstract clay jewellery has been popping up on my Pinterest feed and I’ve really been enjoying the imperfect and…
Read MorePretty, Dirty Laundry: A Nursery DIY
Do you ever find a temporary solution to something and then realise six months down the line that you’re temporary solution has become a permanent fixture? That’s what happened with Maggie’s laundry bin. Wow that sounds like a dull way to introduce a post but I’ll continue anyway.
Read MoreLight up, as if you have a choice
2018 sees us bringing the outside in with more than just house plants, now extending to materials like concrete, terrazzo and terracotta. I happen to be a big fan of the earthy tone and texture of terracotta and how it can so easily soften a minimal and predominantly monochrome space. It doesn’t take much of…
Read MoreBag It Up

Read MoreThe Easiest Way To Say “I Made This”
I’ve been dreaming up an embroidery DIY for a while now but in all honesty I really haven’t got the time to stitch a beautifully intricate motif. I wish I did but that isn’t my reality right now and I’m sure lots of you are in the same boat. I decided to cheat a little and…
Read MoreWorkspace Goals
I’ve noticed that recently a lot of my DIY projects seem to be veering towards organisation. Perhaps it’s an conscious attempt to stop things spiralling into chaos or perhaps I’m developing more of an appreciation for things being ordered. I have one of those ‘odd and ends’ shops near me. The kind that sells everything…
Read MoreSugar & Cloth: Clay Drip Pinch Pots
There’s another DIY up on Sugar & Cloth blog, a midst all Ashley’s gorgeous content. This time I came up with a way to make these little glazed pinch pots.
Read MoreFill Your Walls
You may have noticed a bit of a lull last week here on the blog. All I can say is it was definitely one of ‘those’ weeks. The kind where you wish you could blink and it was the weekend, except the weekend comes and it ain’t much better. Anyway I think I’ll forget last week…
Read MoreSugar & Cloth: DIY Geometric Coasters
It’s time for a new DIY project over on ever pretty Sugar & Cloth and this time I’ve effectively made a puzzle for grown ups. These geometric coasters can be used individually for drinks or slot together to make a patterned trivet tray for serving. A smart idea for the upcoming festive season, whether that’s for entertaining…
