Yesterday we celebrated my sister-in-law’s baby shower and so it was the perfect time to get crafting. I love a good cake topper! It’s such an easy way to turn a very simple cake into a perfectly themed cake. We went with a neutral, brown toned boho baby shower with paper palm leaves, pretty baskets…

Boho Stencil Shapes // DIY peg dolls
My sister-in-law recently hosted a baby shower and was looking for a craft idea that would be both entertainment and leave a keepsake for the baby-to-be. Still one of my top read blog posts is this one for DIY baby blocks. They make such a great baby shower craft idea, so we worked together on…
Geometric Wall Vinyls DIY // Free Cricut Project & SVG
One of the easiest ways to update a space is by adding some simple vinyl sticker decals to the wall. It’s great for a rental space too, as you can just remove them when you need to. Being able to make my own vinyl stickers is one of my favourite things about die-cutting and by…
Cork Coasters with the Cricut Maker // Free SVG download
Coasters have been on my DIY radar for a while. I made some cement coasters a few years back, but we needed something lighter and baby safe that would still protect our furniture from wet glasses or mugs. Of course wanting to try cut cork with my Cricut Maker was a great excuse! How to cut…

Bunny Print // Free Download
I love a good simple print. They can be such an easy way to add a whole bunch of character to a space. We inadvertently ended up with a bunny and bear theme in Bubs’ room when we decorated it, nearly two years ago. I knew I wanted to do vinyl stickers on one wall…
Child’s Sun Hat // Wide-brimmed Bucket Hat DIY
Wide-brimmed hats for toddlers seem to be surprisingly hard to come by. I needed to buy a hat for Bubs last year, as we were going away on holiday. Eventually I found one I was mostly satisfied with, but it cost more than I’d like to have paid and the prints were limited. I thought I…
Soft Sole Velvet Toddler Shoes // Baby DIY with pattern
Last week I shared a tutorial for soft sole baby shoes, which may well end up being the first in a whole series of baby or toddler shoe DIY patterns. I’m thoroughly loving being able to put Bubs in shoes that I made specially for her and need to maximise on it while she’s still small enough…
Easter Bunny Ear Bottles // Printable
One of the changes that I made after studying nutrition was drinking more milk. Unfortunately I haven’t really eaten less chocolate since studying though. In fact, since pregnancy I’ve probably eaten more! Whoops!. But, both milk and chocolate go pretty well with Easter! What better way to drink milk (or anything for that matter) than…

My Favourite Brush Lettered Fonts – Part 1
There are so many AMAZING fonts out there these days. Sometimes I find it incredibly difficult to choose just one. At the moment I’m really loving the gorgeous hand lettered brush scripts that keep popping up. To round up a selection of my favourites I’ve had to split it up into parts. Here’s part one:
Spray Painted Gift Tags // Tutorial and Free Download
Buying gifts ahead of time is not something I’m all that good at. I’ll often have to quickly run to the shop just before a party to try find the right gift and still include a DIY touch. Then again, I’m not all that good at being on time at all… Anyway, the point is that…
