I've been busy this morning making pretty things (AKA some lovely Motivational Quote Wall Art) and as a thank you to all you lovely readers, I thought I'd share what I've been up to with you so you can have some pretty too.I got so many messages about how much you all liked the 'Throw Kindness Like confetti' quote wall art that I made for Miss Frugal's wall that I thought I'd make some motivational quote wall art for you too. I'll be honest though, I struggled to narrow the quotes down just four quotes as I do love a good motivational quote - I even have a private pinterest board … [Read more...]
How to make a pretty teacup candle using tea lights….
Here's my cheat's version of a pretty teacup candle using tea lights and my favourite mug! Super easy, super cute and would make a great homemade gift!I love candles and in the past, I've thought about making my own so I could make something individual that would fit in with my home. The problem with making my own is that it involved buying the things I needed to make them and when I added the costs together with the time and effort involved then I figured I was better off sticking to buying the ones that I LOVE from Primark which smell amazing, last for ages and don't break the … [Read more...]

21 beautiful homemade Spring wreath ideas….
Last year I made a really pretty homemade rag wreath which I hung in my little hallway so people see it as soon as they come in to my house. You honestly wouldn't believe how many people have complimented me on it and asked where I got it from so they could get one too. ;-)I'm going to make another one to switch it out as I fancy a bit of a change but I wanted to make something a little bit different this time - maybe something with flowers to celebrate the return of the sunshine. The problem is that there's so many ideas on Pinterest that I would love to make that I can't decide … [Read more...]
Eleven ways to pack more storage into your home….
I love my house but there's no getting away from the fact that we have hardly any storage space which causes a problem when you have a family of four who seem to have a lot of 'stuff'.The house itself isn't tiny although it is on the small side - we bought a smaller house than we could have afforded at the time because we wanted to have money to spend on having fun with the kids. I know that's totally the opposite to what they say you should do but the difference in mortgage payments between this and the larger house we almost bought was quite a lot and we really wanted to just enjoy the … [Read more...]
How I upcycled my odd little table….
This is a DIY project from quite a while ago but I didn't really share it much at the time as I did cut a few corners and I wasn't sure how it would hold up over time. It's still going strong and it's one of my favourite pieces of furniture in the house so I thought the time had come to share the story of my odd little table.First of all, let's have a look at the table....I bought it last year from our local charity shop when I popped in to drop some things off after a de-clutter. I know, I know, you're not supposed to de-clutter and replace with more things straight away but I … [Read more...]
