Giggleberry Head Quarters!

I realised the other day I have never shown you any pics of my sewing room also known as Giggleberry Head Quarters, GB HQ and to my hubby 'Mummy's Cave'.
Remember I told you way back HERE that we had bought our family home and I was the lucky duck to score the home office/study/half of the double garage turned room as my sewing room? This was how the the room looked when we inspected the house before buying:


This is the now (well a week ago when I had just tidied it):



So what is where you ask? (hope you can read the little print, sorry)


As this is the through way from the garage to the house this room also has our 'family launch pad' where all our shoes, bags, umbrellas, jackets etc live (believe me it makes it so much easier to get the kids out the door to have it all in one spot) and in sewing room dreamland of course I would love all new matching furniture (not the left over stuff we didn't need after moving) and a fabulous and plush chair for sitting in while creating and a floor that magically vacuumed itself every day but for now this little room is just perfect for Giggleberry.

Happy Friday Find - DIY

Is your fridge like mine? Covered in random magnets from plumbers, electricians etc that seem to appear in our letterbox, make their way to the fridge then stay there forever & ever amen?
Well how about dumping all those and creating a bunting artwork on your fridge - even the kids would love helping with this one.


Thanks to this super easy and fun Magnetic Bunting DIY tutorial from Hickety Pickety Handmade your fridge could look fabulous... (IDEA: instead of buying magnet sheets just cover those ugly tradesman magnets with the pretty papers or kawaii tape then cut them up) YAY!!

Happy Friday xx

Media - The Sun Herald & The Age newspapers

Two weeks ago I had an email from Sunday Life (the lift out magazine that comes with Sunday issues of The Sun Herald in Sydney and The Age in Melbourne) They were after some custom bunting to include in their 70's themed children's products feature... Of course I said yes!!


The custom made red, blue and yellow bunting was spotted in the issue that came out yesterday - July 10th! Soooo cool!!
