1. The whole post in my first link is so true for me. Grover is the best, and I LOVE that book. Go check out the Crafty Grover Hand Puppet on Make and Takes
2. Interior Design – Kitchen makeover with before and after photos over at Design Sponge.
3. Bathroom cabinets and accessories from Ikea - I’ve decided to get these when we renovate our bathroom, it’s sort of modular but they look great when put together.
4. DIY Favour boxes on Twig and Thistle – these are a lovely design, I will be sharing this on the Just Details forums!
5. Dresser Drawer ribbon organisers on Mod Podge Rocks, which I posted about yesterday also.
Enjoy your weekend everyone, I’ll be back sunday night!
I’ve been wandering the intarwebs and have stumbled across some mighty fine blogs lately! The kind of blogs that draw me in are usually people who have passion and can tell a story (it’s not quite Friday yet but I’m not sure I’ll get time to post tomorrow, so we’ll just have to pretend I’m from the future)…
My top 5 blogs for this week are:
#1. Kim Vallée – this woman has some amazing links! I’ve been going there a lot recently because she has so much stuff for Halloween (with my Halloween Party coming up)
#2. Design*Sponge – Vast collection of crafty eye candy, withlots of lovely DIY projects
#3. The Shabby Nest – Wendy does a great job of interior decorating on a budget, and doing it right (Shabby Chic not Crappy Cheap). Look at this innovative use of space: A Mini Mud Room
#4. Making it Lovely – Nicole Balch has a really well designed site, it’s just nice to look at! She also details her home renovation / decoration projects, which I love reading about!
#5. Caity.nu – my parrallel universe buddy, we are both teachers, same age, both cut our hair the other week.. haha. Caity is cute and lovely, and newly Vegan (for health reasons! love it)
I’ve got a kids theme going for this Friday Five ♥ can’t wait til I can buy this stuff for my own little munchkins. Visit their stores for more cool stuff! Bugaloo – Leather Baby Shoes Kyle 6-12 – 18-24 months Happy Family – Robot Graphic Print Kelly Green Future Style Baby or Toddler T-Shirt [...]
Lost? Go back to the home page.
Welcome to my little corner of the blogosphere. I'm Mikaela, I am female, 25, married, and busy by choice. I love life and have too many ideas in my head, and wish there were more hours in the day (I'm sure old people always said that when I was growing up). I live in and love Canberra, Australia (2 hours to beach or snow, what more could you ask for?). For more about who I am and what I do, go to the about page =)
We had giant hamburgers for dinner. Bun, tomato sauce, mustard, cheese, hot chilli meat pattie, more cheese, pineapple, beetroot, tomato, lettuce, avocado, bun. YUM. Giant! I had two. See my last post about always eating too much.
Yesterday I was in Coles and saw this yummo looking Italian bread which inspired me to make Bruschetta as an entreé to dinner last night. I forgot to get Olive Oil when I was there so had to improvise with peanut oil, but it wasn’t too bad. I buttered the bread (no oil, remember?), spread [...]
This is a recipe I sort of made up about 4 years ago. I think it’s probably based on something I had once and I just tried to remember the ingredients when putting it together. I’ve got it down to a fine art now, everyone loves this salad. It goes perfectly with snags and steak [...]
Before going to the coast last week I made 2 ribbon organiser boxes. One turned out really well, the other not so much. Here is the latter, made from an old tissue box. The reason I don’t like the end result is because the tissue box was too flimsy to begin with, the walls went [...]
As promised, here are Girds’ and Harley’s new doggie beds! The reason I decided to make these is because their current beds are lumpy, big oofy pillows, with blankets on top. They take up far too much room in our bedroom, aren’t very portable, and are hard to wash. These beds, however, are the opposite [...]
Yesterday and today were spent putting my house back together, so I haven’t had a chance to complete the DIY projects I wanted to do today to show here. Hopefully I can finish the doggie beds tonight as well as at least start on my ribbon organiser… We’ll see how I go, I still have [...]
