DIY Fabric Frame

Morning! It's Friday and we've made it through another week.  It's certainly been a busy one here.  I've busily been working on something in between being mummy and keeping the children amused as the weather has thwarted many plans for the school holidays.  But I am hoping by Monday I will be ready to share an exciting new venture for Inspired Decoration. Perhaps you have seen some sneaky peeks from me on Twitter or Instagram this week? Right back to this mornings post!  As it's Friday I wanted to share an idea for a diy project for you to try this weekend.  Maybe you will be spending the weekend trawling charity shops, flea markets or auctions and come across some sturdy picture or mirror frames but want an interesting way of upcycling them.  Well how about using some of your fabric scraps stash to adorn your frames?  This fab tutorial to make a fabric covered frame from Moda Bake Shop has all the details of how to do this.

Be sure to share your projects with me as it's great to see people trying out the diy ideas I've shared here.
Have a fab weekend,

DIY - Drawer Handle Hooks

Hello, I hope you are all well and having a good week.  I am busy revising and writing assignments at the moment but find regular visits to Pinterest are making it all a little less stressful!  Whilst I have been collecting ideas for projects for our house and for things to share here in the future I thought today I would share this fab idea from Design Sponge.  I love a quick fix that is practical and clever too so this tutorial to make old drawer fronts into coat or bag hooks was too good not to share.  Maybe you don't have any old drawer fronts cluttering up your hall or shed but you could get some old style drawer knobs and paint a rectangle of wood or even mdf to recreate this idea.  I think Lucy would love this idea for her room but the possibilities are endless.  How about coat hooks in the hall, school bag hooks in the playroom, display all those beaded necklaces you've hidden away in a drawer?

So what will you be using yours for? Be sure to share.
Have a lovely afternoon,
Zoe
