I set myself a little challenge for this project! To grab some left over supplies and create THE cutest Valentine display on a budget! And because I used left over bits and pieces, I only spent £1 for the polystyrene hearts. Oh, and I bought the glitter which had 10 tubes for £1 in a local craft shop, so technically…

Our kitchen is probably my favourite area to decorate for Christmas. It’s certainly the most used area in the house as EVERYONE always seems to gather in the kitchen. Not to mention that it doubles up as my craft room for most of the time too! And of course you’ve already seen some of my kitchen decorated (here’s my cocoa…

If you’ve been following me for a while you know that I picked up LOADS of baubles at a ridiculous bargain price a few years ago. I have literally made SO many projects but I’ve still got loads left over. And so for a while now I have been wanting to make a pool noodle Christmas wreath for our fireplace….
