Every now and again I receive questions about past projects. It's always a lovely surprise though also a tad embarrassing to be reminded that people still read my older stuff. I mean, don't get me wrong, I am proud of my humble beginnings and grateful for the path my...
I actually completed this chair months ago (some of you may even remember I posted a sneak peek on Facebook) and have just been waiting for some spare time to sit down and write the tutorial and share it already. It's a sweet little chair for Charlotte's room (yes, I...
Remember when I posted about my parent's made-over bedroom (a month or so back now) and promised to share my tip for creating those neat looking curtain ripples? Well, here's the little trick (in all its unspectacular glory) and how those lovely waves came to be... On...
