Last weekend we celebrated our precious little two

Last weekend we celebrated our precious little two year old. The digger obsession is very real, and only made bigger by the diggers currently pulling up the roads around my parents’ house.

Photo 8: what the birthday boy thought the purpose of the brownie toppers was 😂

It turned out to be a surprisingly easy theme to pull off! I’ll get a full blog post up with links soon, but essentially we used:
- Well-washed trucks we already had at home and 3 hard hats from @builderssa (R19 each) as bowls
- Bought a set of 5 mini trucks, 3 went on the cake, R179 at Toys r Us
- Cake was my favourite vanilla box cake by @goldencloudsa, R42
- Cricut DIYs all from supplies I had at home (‘2’ cut from gold glitter cardstock, construction truck brownie/cupcake toppers made with Print then Cut, ‘Dig in’ layered vinyl to cover the horrible sticky mess from the hard hat labels and black name vinyls for the cousin’s party boxes)

I’ve never organized such a yellow event in my life, but I’m very happy with how it came out!

Important note: I love doing this sort of thing and can happily spend hours putting it together. If it’s not your vibe, don’t feel the pressure to go all out on a theme. Do what you feel comfortable with!

The new bunny mug may have broken, there may have

The new bunny mug may have broken, there may have been tears before we even got to the Easter egg hunt and we didn’t get to church due to sickness, but the reason for Easter is still true ❤️

Bunnies may not be the most important thing about Easter either, but I’ll happily lean into the theme! This little splatter paint idea developed a whole ago in my stories, but I thought it deserved a forever spot on the feed too. Bunny design by @tommyandtillydesign, cut on my @cricutsa Maker 3. Splattered with paint and then gently removed.

Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest di

Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference.

The dollhouse kitchen wall was looking a little bare, so we decided to add this little "home sweet home" vinyl decal. I think it's pretty cute, but I'm biased 😉 So the question now is, do I need a full size one for our actual house?

Time to give the dollhouse a little space on the g

Time to give the dollhouse a little space on the grid again. The whole lounge got a bit of a makeover yesterday ❤️ If you were following along on my stories, you’ll know that I needed to give the fireplace some TLC after it got poked numerous times by its little owner. I loved making it, but it’s too much effort to make a whole new one just for some little holes!

The new colour scheme is all done with @plasconsa’s colour combination for 2022. They sent over some sample pots of the new colours and it inspired this whole room makeover, because why not? 😉 The wall is Pear Fantasy, fireplace is Desert Water and the inside of the fireplace is Zanzibar.

The fireplace rescue - the holes were too big for plain paint to fill them, so I tried the baking soda/paint mix trick for the first time. We’ve now got a beautifully textured fireplace with no holes in the front! The baking soda worked so well!

New walls - DIY removable wallpaper. Measured some cardboard to fit the space, painted it and then stuck it on with double sided tape. This makes it easy to remove when you want a new colour or to go back to wood. Best dollhouse hack!

New artwork - We don’t have a printer at home, so I used my @cricut_mea Joy to draw some cute new artwork on white card which I glued onto the old frames made from coffee stirrers.

I’m so happy with the change! If only a real room refresh was that easy!

Big news! I’m going to be studying again this ye

Big news! I’m going to be studying again this year, which is both exciting and completely terrifying! It’s a complete change of direction for me, but it feels like the right choice to open up new opportunities. We haven’t quite figured out how it’s all going to work just yet, studying from home while looking after the kids too, but we’re going to do our best to make it work.

One thing that will really help is that I’m going to be creating my own little study space, with @builderssa, over the next few weeks. We currently have a big desk in our bedroom that @michaeljtalbot works from most days, but with all his screens and everything set up it doesn’t leave me much space to feel like I can spread out as needed, without it feeling chaotic.

The plan is to move a chest of drawers and add a desk in for me, next to the current one. That way it’s still easy for @michaeljtalbot to be my private tutor if I need study help 😂 but I’ll have a space to myself 🎉

I’ll share some more details later today in my stories (& “study space” highlight) of the actual little nook. I’m excited!

Last minute Christmas DIY with a very VERY excited

Last minute Christmas DIY with a very VERY excited little girl! The best part is it’s a plate I already had + a little gold vinyl, and I can just remove the vinyl once the Christmas hype has settled.

Do you leave anything out for Santa? I liked this design because it didn’t specify cookies. These Santas want mince pies!

Honestly, my @cricut_mea machines are the gifts that keep on giving! I use them all the time not because I’m trying to but because I want to and it just makes sense!

I spent a little time today making some gift tags

I spent a little time today making some gift tags and it reminded me all over again that this is my me time. This year has felt like another rough year, but time and time again I feel my best when I’m creating! So I will keep making all the things, even when I don’t always know where they’ll go, because it’s good for my soul ❤️

This is a post dedicated to the ones that got away

This is a post dedicated to the ones that got away. The gift tags that is.

A few posts back I shared the palm leaf gift tags that we used for @grandlittleadventure’s baby shower. They are exactly what I’d envisioned for the day. However, while making them the first round ended up as these floral gift tags. I really liked how these turned out, but they just didn’t feel right for that occasion. It’s always worth having a little extra stash of pretty gift tags though!

Gift tags drawn and cut on my @cricut Maker. The beauty of it is that I could easily just change my design and make new ones 👌

Propagation vase is a DIY 3 posts back, made from a simple jar from @mambos_storage_home.

We had an unexpected few days off school this week

We had an unexpected few days off school this week, so to save everyone’s sanity we got crafting. These little Rudolfs will be teacher/classmate gifts (if they make it to the end of term uneaten) and they were so fun to make together. I 100% get that crafting with a kid is NOT everyone’s cup of tea, but I find it much easier than playing the same imaginative game over and over. And I kind of love the rough 4 year old colouring in (swipe to see). It’s the first time I’ve let normal glitter loose in our house, but it was good to follow her lead. I always assumed it’d go on the antlers, but she was adamant that it must be the ears. So ears it was! 😂

The design will work with either a red @lindtsa ball or a lollipop and I’ve made it available at the link below.
