• Rusted wire fence and sewing patterns…..equals, artwork!

  

  This upcycling project has dragged on for more than a year now…it is now on the wall and out of my head! Some of you may remember my excitement in February 2012 (more than a year ago), when I stumbled across this bundle of rusted wire fence. It was in a paddock being cleared for…

• Decision time – butterflies or birds for my burlap canvases?

  Months ago I re-covered 2 canvases with burlap (I didn’t like the creation from a previous crafty exploit). I had two ideas for these two new burlap canvases, but couldn’t decide. Many would describe me as having ‘thing’ for butterflies and birds. Previous ramblings featuring birds and butterflies are testament to that. Before making a…

• Upcycling: egg carton muffin box

  I guess you could call this Part II of Upcycling: Transforming garbage. I have ‘a thing’ about throwing things away that can be used for something else – it drives my husband crazy. All around our house you’ll find items I have saved from the trash that are being stored until I get around to…

• On the first day of Christmas… I finished my Christmas wreath!

  On the first day of Christmas my true love said to me…. “Now we’ve moved house can you finish off some of these crafty projects you have started (and never finished)!” Amongst the box unpacking (we moved into our new house last week… you can visit my blog about building the house at www.lot271.com) I…

• Upcycling – Transforming garbage

  Every day I am reminded of the disposable lifestyle we live – constantly chucking out packaging (glass, plastic and metal). So many of the things we put in the rubbish bin could be used for other purposes in our house – so I started collecting them. For some reason it seems a lot worse with…

• Heidi’s Nursery – an eclectic crafty heaven…

  Heidi’s nursery (whilst temporary) is quickly filling with amazing hand made items, and gifts – making it feel more like home for her. Knowing that we will be moving in a few months (when our new home is built), I didn’t spend a lot of time decorating her nursery… a) because I will be packing…
