IDEAS BOOK - HOW TO MAKE WOODEN TEALIGHT HOLDER

I went to the garage the other day to clean up the wood before winter. Last year we haven't had time to get it done, so this season I wanted to be prepared. Evenings are getting longer, so there is more time to have things sorted before it gets really cold. When cleaning I found this old piece of timber that meant to go to the rest of the wood, but I thought it would make a nice tealight holder instead. I had this flat wood bit bought some time earlier, so finally there was a chance to use it. I didn't even realize this project would be so easy to make. In other words if you got spare minute or two and a piece of unwanted wood you may have this lovely tealight holder ready in less than an hour.

IDEAS BOOK - ENVELOPE PILLOWCASE TUTORIAL

Our new house doesn't have a garden sorted yet, but I felt like I needed my own space around it. As always the decision was to do it all by myself. Having small money in my pocket I had to find a way to create bargain patio furnitures and decorate them somehow. On that occasion I went to the backyard and took the old pallets that laid in there for ages and I converted them into a small diy pallet sitting-dining set. All I missed was something to cover the bare wood planks, so I went to Ikea and did some shopping!

IDEAS BOOK - DIY CONCRETE TV WALL TUTORIAL

Has any of you ever thought of making your own concrete wall. Well here you go, I have done it myself. It's easy peasy if you know how to! When we started building our house I had general idea of how I want it to look like. Many of the ideas changed with the time, but from the very beginning I knew that I wanted to have a concrete TV wall in my living room. Originally I planned to buy some ready made concrete panels, but because they were pretty pricey I have decided to do it myself. To do that I had to buy some special concrete mixture for plastering. You can buy it already made and it's really easy to apply. All you need to do is to get the right equipment and be patient. Here is a little tutorial of how to make your own concrete wall.
