Loving… picture rails {decor DIY}

June 19, 2018

Yay, a blog post that isn’t about babies! We moved into our home over 3 years ago, but it’s taken me this long to actually hang some pictures on the walls.  Why?  Because I have commitment issues.  I love collecting prints and photos, but the thought of trying to decide on where to hang everything,…

Loving…new nursery trends {Part 1: floral fantasy}

November 11, 2017

I have to be honest with you – Evan does not have what many would call a “Pinterest-worthy” room.  We did pretty major renovations in the months before he was born (actually we still had workers traipsing through our house when he was a week old), so I didn’t have much of an opportunity to…

Loving… Decorex Cape Town {win tickets}

April 17, 2015

We’ve just passed the two week mark until we move into our first home, and the excitement is building!  I couldn’t believe my luck when I heard that Decorex Cape Town would be held the weekend before we move, talk about good timing.  I’ve been to Decorex in previous years, but this year I’ll hopefully…

Loving…straw terranium {more crafty fun}

August 7, 2014

Yesterday I shared a tutorial on how to make some beautiful geometric diamonds from straws.  Today I’ll be showing you how to make this lovely terranium! You’ll basically need the some items as the diamond project, but the measurements and construction differs slightly. Cut your straws into the following lengths: 18 x 7cm 6 x 9cm…

Loving…washi tape heart mural {DIY}

April 3, 2014

I’ve seen a couple of cross-stitch mural projects around, but it’s always seemed like quite a lot of work, and quite a bit commitment.  Since we’re living in a rented house, something like that isn’t an option for us, so I thought I’d try a more temporary version using washi tape. What you’ll need: a…

Loving…Colours at Kamers

November 11, 2013

I was delighted to hear on Friday that I had won tickets to this year’s Kamers vol Geskenke (meaning “Rooms full of gifts” in Afrikaans), courtesy of the lovely Nadia van der Mescht.  So yesterday my friend and I drove through to Stellenbosch to visit this amazing market. Kamers (as it is fondly known) has…
