Tutorial Tuesday: Blockposter Decoupage Drawers Tutorial
This is the first part of my superb bedroom makeover on the cheap, our bedroom tends to get completely ignored and I’m just not willing to put much money into it as I’d rather use it on rooms that we use more like the family/dining room, so I’m trying to change our daggy old bedroom for less than $100! Dan’s horrible old white melamine chest that he’s had since he was a teenager (meaning it’s older than me!) was my first item to tackle!
You will need…
- Your chosen piece of furniture
- PVA glue
- Printer
- Paper
- Screwdriver
- Rotary cutter/craft knife
- Cutting mat
- Ruler

Not Nigella > Martha Stewart
I’ve had a fairly nice stats spike in the last two days, and it didn’t take much hunting to discover that it’s coming from tipnut.com. My Fantabulous Pincushion Tutorial has been linked in a list of 22 Pincushion Tutorials, “woohoo! some new blood in the readers pool” says I, then I looked at the list and decided things were even better than that, because I am better than Martha Stewart. That’s right, she may have many things that I lack, a tv show, a huge range of home and craftwares (including her own brand of PVA glue!) and a criminal record, but I have the superior pincushion tutorial, making me utterly fabulous and her just kind of lame
I recommend if you’re at all domestically inclined to check out tipnut, there’s some great tips on there for frugal living, DIY projects and other home related things!
Tutorial Sneak Peek
Here’s a promise of things to come! I should have the time to write and put up a tutorial tomorrow focusing on giving your old/thrifted furniture a new lease of life, but for now I shall just tease you with (almost) completed item.
I wonder if anyone could direct me to a tutorial on how to cut my grass? 
Tutorial Tuesday: Xmas Buddies Tutorial
Part of the standard Christmas decorations in my Mum’s house when I was young was toilet tubes, not any old toilet tubes, but hers were crocheted around and became a santa with a little matching crochet hat that popped off to reveal sweets hidden inside. I can barely remember any of the Christmas decorations that we had, but for some reason these little santas stuck in my head, and so I’ve reinterpreted them here
I'm a twenty something WAHM, originally from England and now living in a land downunder.
