FIRST IKEA HACK


Finished this yesterday, really pleased with it.  A very reasonable £16.99 LATT chair and table set hacked with some fab fabric I picked up as a roll end (£2.99 pm) and PVA glue.

NEW ROOM FOR DYLAN


Well, sorry it has been a little while but since I have been at work it has been tough to keep up with sewing and creative projects.  I have given my son's room a make over using wall stickers from Pound World, and I'm really pleased with it.  We didn't want to spend a lot as we're moving, but I have to admit, this is the cheapest room revamp I've ever done!


Price break down:
8 x wall sticker packs (£1 each) = £8
Paint from the garage = free (blue, green and white, left over from bathroom and Dylan's room first time around)
Fabric = £4.50 (£2.99 pm used about 1.5 m (for cushion and bunting)
Curtains = £20 (Argos)
3 x canvases (£1.50 each) = £4.50 (Dunelm Mill)
2 x mobiles (£10 each) = £20 (Ebay)


Total = £57


Here is the finished result:








Meant to say, I went for neutral curtains so I can always change the theme later on (I'm thinking a rocket theme!)

Let me know what you think.
