... and Laundry Cupboard Makeover

This post is not a particularly 'crafty' one, but it certainly is a project that's been on my to do list for a while! So I thought I'd share how I organised by laundry cupboard, as an incentive for actually getting on with it!

Blast from the Past - Tank Top Tote Bag

Hello! This is a new feature where we share projects which have been on our 'things to try' list for a while.... but just haven't got round to yet. They will still stay on our list (or Pinterest board!), but in the meantime we thought we'd share them for inspiration!

This is a tutorial by Can Can Dancer on how to turn a t-shirt or tank top into a lovely drawstring tote bag. Make sure you also visit Laura's website and check out all the other fab things she's made!

We are linking up to these parties!

... and a Candle Makeover

Last week I shared how I revamped some candle pots by wrapping them in yarn. Not wanting to waste anything, I gave the old wax a bit of a makeover and made a new candle!

... and Yarn Wrapped Pots

I had some candles in terracotta pots, which were well past their best to say the least! So to make the pots more pretty, I decided to wrap them in yarn!

Tips, Tools & Techniques - Patina Pennies

Hello! Here's our regular feature where we share tips, tools & techniques that have caught our eye, things we have Pinned, and things we have tried. These are probably not going to change your life(!) but might make it a bit easier...

Patina is "a thin layer that forms on the surface of stone; copper, bronze and similar metals (tarnish produced by oxidation or other chemical processes)". It is also a great technique to give pennies a pretty colour!!

... and a Decorative Plate Makeover

Today we have a great guest post by the lovely Zografia from Bisozozo who is sharing her inventive makeover for a decorative plate!

... and a Mirror Makeover

I have to confess that I have become slightly obsessed with painting and distressing furniture! My latest attempt is a Mirror Makeover!

... and a DIY Painted Chair

Having had a go at painting and distressing my Make Up Storage Box, I thought it was time to try out these techniques on a chair!
