Up up and away..

I'm heading off on a little holiday in 5 weeks time.

Where am i going? First stop France.

Lower Normandy, France.

After that... i don't know. I have no accommodation booked, only my flights.

Au Revoir

DIY mini laterns

Plastic cups + fabric + fairy lights = soooo cute

Click to see how to make these

Spray paint a trash can, flip it upside down and BOOM - side table.

Ringadingding - i made a ring!

I made my first sterling silver ring!

 Start

2 hours work with a metal blade cutting crooked shapes.

So unevenly cut and rough

a mere 5 hrs later - anealed and shaped & filed down

Finish

2 days later - 2 semi polished silver rings, plus wrinkly hands.

Do not underestimate soldering metals, the most fun you can have with a tank of gas and a gun.

What a crate idea

I've wanted a bed made of used pallets since Josh & Jenna from "The Block" made it a feature in their renovated Richmond workman's cottage, slowly i've looked for places to source them but haven't found any suitable yet, the idea of reusing a functional piece of wood brings an industrial yet inviting feel to the room.

Darrrrling, that's soooo waterful.

70% of my childhood during 1988 - 1993 was spent within these plastic water filled chambers, YES.
