Friday I'm in love… with these pretty projects
11 Mar
For today’s Friday I’m in love, I thought I’d share
some brilliant projects/tutorials I’ve come across recently.
How gorgeous is this skirt? The whole tutorial is here. I so want to try this!
Amazingly pretty hair… and it looks pretty easy too.
Mine isn’t this long but I used to do something similar with
two little buns a few years ago so I think it should still work.
I currently dislike our doormat. (If you can dislike such things!)
So I’m thinking this simple project could be the answer.
Some colourful paint and a ‘hello’ perhaps?
I wanted to red and white painted stripes in our hall…
This painted floor makes me wish I had. Brilliant isn’t it?
Love this lace lamp by Dos Family.
So delicate and pretty… must cast amazing shadows too.
Looks simple-ish… might have to start collecting some doilies first!
And adorable sequin shoe clips.
(The tutorial is here.)
Shoe clips are a current obsession of mine
as I’m trying to find the perfect ones for my wedding.
Ok, there isn’t a tutorial for these amazing chairs…
but I’ve been meaning to share this for ages…
I would love to have these in my hall!
Seen any fab projects
you want to share?

P.S. Apologies that I’ve been a somewhat absent blogger.
Life and stress have been taking over.
On the plus side, I’m thankful to say that
I’m off to meet my little niece Grace tomorrow.
She’s a tiny mite and has arrived very early– after giving everyone
a bit of a scare for the last month – but so far everything’s looking good.
Hope you all have a great weekend xx

These are great finds – particularly love the door mat one, might have a go at that and personalise with our door number. Lx
Oh some lovely things there I do love the stripy floor that is amazing! xx
Lovely projects! Love the skirt. Have you tried ban.do for shoe clips! Or the shop floor project has some too, I think. I need very very simple projects – not sure I could even pull off any of the above!
Always love a good tutorial tip-off, so thanks for so many of them! Though the striped floor will remain a pipe dream for quite some time, that mat is a super idea, so cheap and doable, but amazingly effective!
Love the painted rug – wish we had some bare floorboards so I could do it! Great news about your little niece too.
I think that skirt is BEAUTIFUL and I covet it madly! Actually, I’m quite keen on everything that you listed today.
Am off to try that style with my newly straightened hair.
Have a lovely weekend!

Oh the chairs, the chairs!
I need to get unpacked and get my craftiness on!
P.S. I’m glad you liked your ankles! They were rather fabulous!
Such beautiful tutorials! I wish I had more ideas for tutorials, they’re one thing I’d like to do more often on my blog. x
Just discovered your blog and love it!!
Such great ideas and photos – very fresh and appealing!!
Nice collection of stuff here. I wish I was crafty enough to think of such cool ideas. Think I might try the doily lamp shade – it looks rad.
Love the striped floor! And you can dislike a doormat, I certainly have…
Thank you so much for linking to us. And I love the hair. Am going to try it at once.
That doiley lamp has me intrigued. Do you think they make them like palled mâché with a balloon that’s then popped and hooked out?
The doily light cover made me smile. I love doilys.
The chairs & painted floorboards are so fab!
