Pretty Toilet Paper Storage Solutions

Raise you hand if you've been stranded in the restroom with no toilet paper. It's not a fun experience. When I got married, this was a HUGE issue in our house twice. Only twice because after that I took action. Here are two storage solutions that work in our house. If you want to see more pretty TP storage options, check out the link below.

Mobile Phone Holder

Mobile Phone Holder

Since I'm in a crafty mood today, I decided to come up with a new DIY project for a mobile holder for my desk, I tend to dump my mobile around and keep shifting it if I have my notebooks or need to write something. So I decided its about time to get my mobile a place of its own. I know there are a lot of funky and cute mobile holders out there to buy, but I just love creating my own stuff, with just a few supplies and mainly your toilet paper rolls this would make an ideal recycle project! This stand is cute and customizable, you could decorate it any way you want or even match your desk or home office theme! Also cute for teens and would also make a great personal DIY gift.

Transformations Using the Craft of Decoupage

Transformations Using the Craft of Decoupage

Decoupage is a traditional paper craft – the art of decorating an object by gluing colored paper cutouts. The word decoupage comes from the French verb decouper, ‘to cut out’. It was in the 17th century that the craft reached its height of popularity with aristocrats, noble ladies as well as the more humble practitioners trying out the art of decoupage. Today, decoupage remains a popular craft with far reaching variations and many crafters’ use decoupage to add dimension to their work.Lets look at an up cycling project today using this versatile technique.

Upcycled Velcro Chalkboard Photo Wall Display

Upcycled Velcro Chalkboard Photo Wall Display

I stumbled across an old picture at my local junk shop and picked it up for almost nothing. I wasn't interested in the picture, what I was after, was the frame. I upcycled this picture into a fantastic chalkboard photo wall display. There are 2 unique things about this photo frame. Firstly I used velcro sticky dots to secure the photos, so it's ridiculously easy to change the pictures around. Secondly as the photos are mounted on a chalkboard you can write fun tags and messages with chalk. *please note that this was a tired old print and not an orginal painting. If it was the orginal I would have been able to retire on the thousands if not millions I could have sold it for. :-)

How to Shape Resin Into a Bowl

How to Shape Resin Into a Bowl

Recently our international blogger group had the challenge to create something out of resin. This was my first attempt at the challenge. I wanted to try and shape resin around an object to get an interesting shape. I knew I wanted to make a bowl of some description but in the end, I was not happy with the colour. So it got chuck to the back of my shed. But every time I go in my shed it catches my eye and I think to myself, I loved the idea just not the colour. So I wanted to share the idea with you, you can just choose your own colours.

How to Paint Fabric Upholstery With Chalk Paint

This post was written in collaboration with 2 Chicks and a Toolbelt but all thoughts and opinions are my own. Wait until you see how to paint fabric and transform a piece into something amazing on a budget.Are you looking to update upholstered furniture on a budget? Learn how to paint fabric upholstery with chalk paint in 10 easy steps.If you are anything like me, I have so many pieces that need to be recovered. The upholstery fabric is out of date, dingy, and could use an update.Two years ago, I painted the fabric on an antique bench and it turned out amazing!And because that bench turned out so well, I painted the fabric on a vintage chair too that I found on Facebook Marketplace for a steal.I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again if you are considering recovering or deconstructing a piece anyway, why not try to paint fabric first?It’s no loss if it doesn’t work out, because you were planning to recover it anyway.And painting fabric is such an inexpensive way to update a piece.The final result is a dramatic change.

Making a Lampshade Out of an Antique Sieve / Strainer

Making a Lampshade Out of an Antique Sieve / Strainer

We are in our 3rd Lockdown and Stay at Home orders here in Ontario Canada and that doesn't bother me, but it has made me have to become more creative in my diyng especially this time around as my go to Dollarstore is only allowed to sell essentials and hardware stores etc are all curbside. So it is abit more challenging to design anything but I love a challenge! It has also given me the opportunity to go through my " junk" I have collected and put it to use. And that's exactly what I did when I came across this antique sieve/ strainer, whatever you want to call it.

DIY Outdoor Furniture Covers

Outdoor furniture is expensive and needs to be protected to help prolong its life, but those furniture covers can be so pricey! I decided I was going to make my own covers, and actually first did this DIY with an old plastic tarp - after realizing how easy and effective it was, I redid the project using the canopy that came with our pergola. Really any outdoor, waterproof fabric would work for this!
