THINGS I'VE MADE FROM THINGS I'VE PINNED - DIY ORIGAMI VASES.

Hey. Just popping in quickly to share these origami vases I made using a fantastic tutorial I found on Pinterest. It's been a while since I've made something using a tutorial I've pinned. I need to do it more often. It seems like such a pity to pin these things but never actually make them.

You can find the tutorial over on Love Decorations. I made 2 and put an empty jam jar in each one. I'm using one as a pen pot and the other as a vase to hold my crepe paper peonies.

Have you got any tutorials you've pinned that you'd love to make? I think I might try this on next or maybe something like this. Argh, it's so hard to choose.

FREE FLORAL DESKTOP WALLPAPERS.

Hello and happy Monday. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Did you do anything nice? We went for a walk along the coast to blow away the cobwebs and ate a lot of food. The highlight being a giant chili hot dog followed by the most amazing lime creme brulee with mini coconut macaroons.

Today I've got some pretty floral desktop wallpapers to share with you. I'm in love with those painted style chalky flowers. Aren't they fantastic?
