I was very sick of cutting chicken or making meatb I was very sick of cutting chicken or making meatballs and feeling gross so while I still do those things and still do feel gross, this little air dry clay flower hook actually helps šŸ˜…
It’s a bit wonky and I feel like I went on way too thick with the resin but let’s go with it’s whimsical. It also gave me an excuse to buy a UV light so now I’m unstoppable.

So the bedroom-turned-kitchen is obviously that gi So the bedroom-turned-kitchen is obviously that girl in this house lately but everyone wanted to know what the kitchen-turned-bedroom looked like so here we go!

What’s the best kitchen upgrade you’ve made??

All the security screen haters (of which there are many, me included) will be happy to know I have a quote coming up to have them replaced but also in terms of money I have no money so we’ll see how that goes šŸ˜‚

Anyway what’s your favourite part? I think mine is the cafe curtains?
