• Robin Red Breast (seed pod) Mobile

  

  I was at mum’s the other day, and on the book shelf were these little, coloured birds placed in an ornamental tree – on closer inspection I realised that these little birds were made from seed pods! Bernice then took over, and began demanding answers – who made those birds? Where did the seed pods…

• Scrapbook – a blog about something I love doing!

  How did I stumble across this? I was emailing our landscape designer (Derek from www.facetdesign.com.au) about my new blog www.lot271.com, to tell him that I was about to write about the design he did for our new home, and he emailed back to tell me that he loved the idea of the blog, and that…

• Upcycling – Making Bassinet and Cot Sheets

  I recently introduced my mother-in-law to eBay…. she loved it! We went searching for a bassinet (with a little bit of character) for the baby. I really liked the older style cane bassinets, and eBay delivered (it also happened to be located about 30 minutes from my Mother-in-law’s house). We placed our highest bid a…

• A new look for an old lampshade

  I don’t know about you, but it is really hard to find a good lampshade these days. It was time I took things into my own hands and created what I was looking for. I had received a hand-me-down lampshade from my grandmother (via mum). It had a rather grand marble base that could also…

• Desk salvage – before and after…

  Not only do I have a reputation as a hoarder, but after my chair transformation post many now picture me on weekends scouring the streets for furniture people have discarded.
