Oh I do love a makeover. Last week’s Revamp, Restyle Reveal finalé (find it here) was a pretty big one… but today I’m going to concentrate on one of my favourite elements of the room. A mini makeover, which played a big part of the RRR room. My vintage display cabinet makeover. Earlier this year, […]

IKEA Hack Cabinet From IKEA Storage Organiser
If there’s one thing I am utterly crap at, it’s organising. I don’t mean holidays or parties… I’m talking organising, as in storage. Storage for the mundane stuff that we all need.

Magazine table makeover
I bought this wee magazine table from a reclamation yard a few years back for the tiny sum of three whole pounds. Now, it was lying out back in the yard, overgrown with grass and had to literally be pulled from the undergrowth, so, I felt slightly robbed having to pay anything. Anyway, I had […]
Keeping with tradition..
It seems that I have developed a bit of a custom, when moving into a new home. This custom seems to be carried out within about the first day of moving in. This custom involves a hammer pick. It took about 15 minutes from my parents waving ‘bu-bye’ to me discovering (through use of a hammer and […]
