WA LAAA!
The dandelions aren't completely finished and the room needs 'dressing' still and one wall is only 3/4 painted but I couldn't wait to show you lot what I have so far! Apologese for the size of the pics.
get 2 peices of fabric one longer then the other, sew them together inside out, sew on a button and use the longer bit as a flat and use ribbon or something to hook the flap to the button, put stuffing in and done. The flap and button is so you can wash the covers if they get a bit dirty 
I love the smell and taste of lemon anything lemon I will eat!
my dad used to burn it when he got his own house, whatever it was it wasnt a nice smelling one it made me feel really ill lol
I tried burning incense once and it just smelt like burning! I love the smell of cinnamon but hate the taste. There was a lovely pouch and oils of honey and vanilla I think it was I'm gonna buy some it was just sooo lovely.
yeh I'll take pics when it's done! The green paint is bugging me it doesn't look as green as I wanted but there was no other greens that went with the purple as well oooh well I'll just have to see when it's on the walls. Can't wait to start painting!
double postiiing dont caaaare
I got a really cool white lantern and a white victorian style picture frame, I'm really going for vintage looking accessories after buying that wall hook There was a lamp that would be perfect but it was 15 quid so I'll get that another time, it's got really tacky looking fake crystals on it that don't even go with the design I'm gonna whip those off with my pliers when I get it
There was also this really cool brown wooden pouperi box but I could use it for anything it was only 3.29!!!! I'm gonna buy that next time I go to that shop as well as some nice smelly things
old pillow cases maybe? I have tie dyed pillow cases I dyed myself I've been stopping and starting a bag for ages all made from patches of knitting, its quite sturdy and really easy to make, might re do all the patches though since my knitting is much better now haha.
We got paint today and I also got some funky pillows and a really cool antique looking wall hook. I might just buy an antique white dresser because I have a chest of draws and a smaller one but I need to get stuff off of the floor as much as possible so I want just one big dresser, I want to get a mirror with the same style of frame. I really do want to really do up what I already have but it's not gonna work because of the plastic of the top of the wood and I doubt it will with the other small chest of draws boo I wanted to recycle!
I already have a canvas with a cool print on it (I would do it myself but this is really nice and was cheap), I have prints of new york from when I went, a sketch of that street in paris where all the artists used to meet up and an etching of florence I'm also painting dandilions (when they are all fluffy) on the walls. I was going to make small ceramic tiles with patterns and stuff on them to put on the wall but it would be too much.
KK - I have one of those netted tube things with holes that you can hang from the ceiling and put stuff in, you can't put heavy stuff in them but they're great for scarves and hats and things. And I hook earrings into the small holes in the netting I got mine from a pound shop they come in lots of different colours. There's also these things that look a bit like mini hammocks that you can attach on to the wall and put stuffed teddies or again you could put shoes in it or anything that isn't too heavy
I took a look at the chest of draws and it looks like actual wood just with plastic or paint on it, i might get some sandpaper and just have a go in a corner and see what happens lol. The sides look painted the draws look like plasticy stuff. Thanks guys!
So I'm getting new shelves but I dont want them to be boring. If they are real wood not that chipboard stuff with white plasticy paint stuff can I paint them with whatever I use on my walls (well one colour of 2 walls it's not gonna be all the same colour that would be ick.)and then sand it a bit so that it looks like it's in the grain sort of antique looking? Any body know?
I also have a chest of draws that even though they're horrible looking I really like the size so I'm gonna see if I can get the handles off and get new ones but I want to do the same sort of thing with that. But it's like chip board or mdf covered in white paint even though it looks like plastic I think it may be. So I doubt i'd be able to sand it down and get a really nice effect!
Again, anyone could with this sort of thing?
My mum and I started ripping all the wall paper off with nothing covered aha we got carried away!
you could embriodery the cow logo onto them with your Etsy address and a 'thanks' and put one in the envelope when you send stuff to people
you could make one of his favourite games character out of dough bake it and then he could eat it or you could cover it in glue so he could keep it.
I didn't even know the US celebrated it!
I made the first little felt russian doll today she's cuuuute my mum will like them
