When I mentioned to my son that I was planning on painting just the tops and bases of these chairs, I described it to him as giving them all hats and socks. I thought that was kind of cute until he went on to add that "the hats will eat the socks and then the chairs...
Firstly, I have to express my gratitude for such an amazing response to my last post. Given I almost didn't publish it I was completely overwhelmed by the comments and emails. Thank you all. When I shared my parent's bathroom refresh last month many of you asked to...
This is one post I thought I'd never publish. If you follow me socially (on Facebook or Instagram) you may have seen a sneak peek of this makeover and read about my reservations in sharing it here. Basically, this is my gran's house which we suddenly needed to sell...
I wanted a really simple Christmas tree this year. Complete with earthy tones and natural elements off-set by a delicate smattering of little white stars. However, when I couldn't find any said little white stars, I figured I'd have a go at making my own. And I'm so...

For the past four or so years, all of Charlotte's craft supplies have lived in a big plastic tub on the top shelf in her wardrobe. Aside from the fact her room has limited storage space which means we can't be too picky about where things are housed, they were stowed...
