Handcraft Inspiration

Do It Yourself

Some of the fun things I have made.  You may like to try them out too.  A wide variety of projects, many making use of materials that are recycled or on hand.  

The bedside table made from books and vinyl records made a quirky addition to our guest room.  Using bleach to reverse-print on a coloured T-shirt, as well as tie-bleaching another was surprisingly satisfying.  

The all-time top hit on the website still is the safety-pin earrings, and I regularly wear the earrings I made myself out of egg boxes too!
