As with most of my DIY ideas, I’m on the hunt for something myself and in the end just decide to make it instead. That’s exactly why I decided to make these earrings but the beauty of them is not just that pom poms make everything look super cute but they also take all of 5 minutes!…

Playtime

It’s So Fluffy I’m Gonna Die

I’m becoming quite the collector of fluffy ‘stroke me’ cushions in our pad! I’m not sure how that happened but I’m sure you’ll agree it’s nice to break up a room by adding in some textures, particularly when most of the room is one colour, in my case all grey!

Creative Gift Wrapping with Scotch Tape

Gift wrapping can either be an delicate art or a case of crumpling paper until it fits and slamming on some tape for good measure. When you’re organised and have time it’s a beautiful thing, an activity you can do perched in front of Elf or Love Actually, feeling all together jolly. Unfortunately I can only…

Scandi tableware

This make was inspired by a trip to one of my favourite shop for ‘things you never knew you needed’, Flying Tiger. I came across this lovely grey marl, jersey yarn and instantly had to buy it and worry about dreaming up a use for it later. It wasn’t long before I was taken with the…
