My little veggie garden pot label DIY project

I recently stole a trough from my parents and planted some tomatoes and lettuce. I need to bring some life onto my balcony so I thought it would be cute and quirky to add some labels so my guests know what i'm growing. Im a salad freak and I cant wait for these to be ready, will save some bucks on buying salad goods all the time. 


The equipment I used, paint your wording with a tiny paintbrush and watercolour or acrylic paint, I used watercolour paint for this one.

My freaky deer make over!

So...I bought this deer at the milnerton market the other morning. She was a bit dirty and freaky, so I sprayed her gold and gave her a little bit of a copic marker make over! Check out below!

new bunting and bed :)


Made some bunting to be a placeholder for our headboard (which is next on my to do list). Nice wonky font due to the fact that my dad wouldnt let me take the printer so I had to draw my own letters (effort much) happy & cute thought - atleast it makes that huge white wall a little homey-er for the time being..


this is what im planning on doing for a head board: going to get some wood and age it myself. lets hope it turns out as nice.


My DIY balcony decor



just moved into a new place with my man, the balcony was a bit lonely so I collected some old glass and driftwood at the beach! look what I made, plus I has the string laying around so It didnt cost a penny! love!

More pics to come of the flat :)
