iPad Case

Hey All,

I have a confession, I'm in love with my iPad. I confess that she helps me throughout the day, entertains me, educates me and I love her. I might even take her with me at night and when I awake, I promptly hold her in my arms as she shares with me what has happened in the world overnight.

But she was transparent and it was time to dress her up a bit

Here's how I did it,

Supplies

• iPad Case
• Contact Paper 
• Vinyl (and cutting machine)
• Exacto knife

First I measured up the contact paper

Removed the back and stuck it on and smoothed it down.

The corners were a little tricky so I slit the corners

Trimmed all the edges and holes

Then I thought I would put one of my pretty little dolls but the black wasn't right.

So I peeled it off and swapped it for pink. With a monogram because as a resident of Bloglandia everything needs to be monogrammed.  This is also the best part, It peels off whenever you want to switch it out. I'm loving houndstooth at the moment but they can change and it will be easily swapped out.

DIY Delight or Disaster? To be honest I love the Houndstooth. Dior was truly onto something with the "New Look" but the doll, mmm not 100% on that still so this one is a fence sitter for me.

Houndstooth Table Makeover in 20 minutes

 

G'day all,

So a little while back my craft desk was repossessed...by Julian for Jack who got a new computer for his birthday and I was stuck with Jack's teeny tiny little one and that so wasn't working for me. I did however have my old dining table out in the garage. Before the babies I had two tables one formal one for everyday and we really needed the room.

I loved having the extra space on the table to craft but I hated the fact that the glass always looked dirty

And that you could see my junk underneath and it always looked messy.

Enter the contact paper it's quick, easy to clean and super easy to swap out when my current obsession with houndstooth runs it's course.

It's as easy as lining up the strips and smoothing it down. I also used a tip I saw somewhere (probably Pinterest) about having the electrics under the table, brilliant it meant I didn't have cords hanging all over the place.

Tada, like magic, a whole new table that hides the junk which makes me so happy!

DIY Delight or Disaster??? I'm in love Delight! What do you think?

Thanks for reading,
