Wood you?

I know its been a while since I last splashed some luscious images on yours screens, but I'm back!

While I've been away I have been busy decorating my very own nest and I've discovered some even more beautiful things that I am dying to share....

As the crisp autumn air moves in, these timber treats might make you think twice before throwing your next log onto the open fire...

Door Decorators

Add a bit of *sparkle* to your front door and dress it up with one of these treasures....


DIY: Glue brightly coloured felt balls to a papermache wreath.
Felt balls and wreaths available from Spotlight

 DIY: Wrap fairy lights and jewellery wires strung with clear/white beads and pearls around a start shaped wire frame and finish off with a silver or white bow of ribbon or rope.
*Make sure fairy lights are made for the outdoors

 DIY: Thread some cherries or berries onto wire and then shape in to a heart or circle for a 'temporary' and edible installation

CHRISTMAS!

I hope I haven't scared you, but I just LOVE Christmas, it goes hand in hand with holidays, food family and friends... So I thought it best to get in early with some little crafty inspirations. Not only will they be great for your budget but there is nothing quite as special as something that has been Handmade with LOVE...



 puddings, short breads, cookies, cakes.....


Jams, Chutneys & Sauces, bottled and hand wrapped with just a little corrugated cardboard or cloth tops, a few twists of twine and finished off with a simple tag and cute message


I love simple and this is a gorgeous idea for a handmade advent calendar... White tags, with printed numbers and decorate to your hearts desire.. this one is organic and fresh and your waist line will thank you!
