I recently repurposed an old table into a party trough table but it came with no chairs. To make the table more appealing to a buyer I knew I would have to sell the table with some sort of seating.
I am always on the lookout for new projects to keep my website fresh and interesting. Mixed media is going to be the new craft I teach myself. Browsing through Pinterest I came across mixed media canvases. It was love at first sight. I went on youtube and watched a few tutorials and decided to have a go. To make it easier to get started I picked my daughter’s recent wedding as a theme. The idea was to use elements from for wedding and wedding day to decorate the canvas.
I was looking for ideas for a Father’s day gift that I could make using my Cricut. Many men in Australia have a man cave or a men’s shed as they call them. I thought a man cave sign with man cave rules would be a great idea. I looked online for ideas and most of the man cave signs were all made as not to offend others or worded to be politically correct.
My daughter asked me to make her a simple wall shelf for her new home. She has a modem box mounted in the middle of her wall with wires running down the wall to a table. The idea was to have a shelf mounted on the wall for the modem to sit in so she can get rid of the table which was in the way. She did not want anything fancy just a basic wall shelf.
Being a DIY blogger I am always trying to find the best light and background to photograph my projects. As we all know a good photo can make a big difference in how popular a project will be. If you have a boring photo there is a good chance people will not click on the link. While I was taking some photos the other day I noticed my wind chime was looking really drab and dull. So the wind chime became my next victim for a makeover.
It is time again for this month’s International Blogger Club Challenge (IBC). This month the topic was Rock & Roll, we had to create something incorporating the theme in our project. I chose Elvis Presley because he is still the King of Rock & Rock in my eyes, he was the first person that popped into my head.
