Filling a Naked Picture Frame

Filling a Naked Picture Frame

Sorry if my post title lured you here in hopes of some gratuitous nudity :-) I thought I'd ease back into the décor side of things with this easy project. It's certainly not rocket science though for anyone scratching their head about an easy way to re-claim their...

Hello WordPress!

Hello WordPress!

I almost can't believe it! After what feels like for-ev-er (though was actually more like the better part of a year - yes people, a whole year!) my newly designed blog is finally live! If Charlotte wasn't asleep right now I would literally scream...very loudly! Though...

Home Office Cabinet Progress

Home Office Cabinet Progress

I know I originally said I wasn't going to refer to my new computer area as a 'home office' though it's just the most self-explanatory title, so home office it is. You may remember I was in a bit of a pickle over finding some appropriate cabinetry. The restrictive...

A New Room Redo

A New Room Redo

Suffice to say it was a fair exchange, though for us, gaining Charlotte meant losing our "computer room". I know calling it a "home office" or "study" would sound more official, though with the majority of time spent in there going toward online shopping, e-stalking...

Industrial Sconce Light Makeover

At the moment I'm helping Mum organise and re-design the little nook (parent's retreat) off her and Dad's master bedroom. Whilst the complete room reveal is still a whiles away I wanted to share the finished upgrade of the wall sconces. If you've read this blog more...

More Free Printable Labels!

More Free Printable Labels!

  After I posted my DIY canister decal tutorial I had a HEAP of requests for additional labels. Soooo, because I'm a really nice blogger (and/or just totally awesome in general :-) I decided I would create another page of some staple pantry labels for you guys...

Living Room Update

Living Room Update

Beside delegation, the key to good time management is prioritisation, right? So, amongst caring for a seven month old, running a household, working on furniture revivals and design consultations and pretending to be a web developer, what's another important task?...

Best Intentions and Beautiful Spaces

Best Intentions and Beautiful Spaces

So, I was gonna share photos of my updated living room this week (truly ruly) though then this happened....   No, I wasn't gobbled up by a giant pair of novelty teeth, although given the current circumstances it doesn't sound like such a bad thing, because poor...
