Artificial turf has become very popular. When people started using it in their backyards a few years ago I was very dubious - we probably all were. I was a little cringey and unsure of it. BUT it's come a long way in the last couple of years. There's been a big improvement in the …
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. Today I thought I'd give you some steps on how to water indoor plants. Well this is how I water mine and I have lots of plants which are doing well (don't worry, I've killed a few too!), but mostly I am having some success. Did you know ALL …
I don't mind a bit of op shopping and trawling through local second-hand stores. It is true what they say, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. And with a bit of creativity and a lick of paint, anything can look new again. But there are a few items that if you see in a …
Another bathroom reno done! This one was finished at the end of January. It wasn't smooth sailing but I'm happy with how it turned out. There was asbestos so it was a full strip, clean and re-do just about everything. It cost a little more, but it actually wasn't too bad. It was under $8k …
Coloured grout is all the rage at the moment! Sorry about the quality of these photos. I took screenshots from a REELS video I did... Anyway, coloured grout is fun to use in places that need a bit of WOW, or something different. Of course, this home bar could definitely get away with something cool. …
If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen this post go of its head! I painted my concrete a couple of months ago and even though I was worried about how it would look in the end, I think the photos speak for themselves.... it's amazing! If you can paint a wall, you …
Dining tables are so expensive aren't they? I needed something round to fit in to this Airbnb house but I didn't have the budget for something brand new. I was lucky to snap this one up on Facebook Marketplace for $80. All it needed was a good sand a coat of a matte sealer and …
I didn’t know what to put on the back of this kitchen panel. But then I thought why not try some render?! It came up pretty good I think. I painted it in a off white and now it adds a bit more texture to the room. I’m going to add a teeny bit of …
Another before and after. 🤩 Here’s the kitchen! It just has a few finishing touches to go. The whole space was ripped apart, walls re-sheeted, a door filled in, bulkhead built and the cabinetry was all DIY from Kaboodle through Bunnings. What a huge job! I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Head …
Here’s another before and after bedroom. It’s almost done! Just some skirting and patching around the shutter. I absolutely promise this is the same room. When I first looked at it, it only had a single bed and the window was off centre. I realised they’d put in built-in-robes at some stage which took out …
I'm in the middle of a full renovation. It's been so full on. I really really had to get rid of all of the brown on this house. And the best (and cheapest) way was to paint the bricks. I own a spray gun and it's a very simple and easy process. It took about …
When you see someone selling a cactus on Facebook Marketplace and you head to their house buy 1, but then come home with 4.... ha! I couldn't help it. I was given these pots by Northcote Pottery ages ago and I'd been saving them. I didn't know for what, until I saw these cacti. The …
