I'm excited to share some more of my upcycled home and lifestyle goodies!

 This two seater with table and funky plush pillows @ R350
With a little help from my sunshine we re-created these crates previously used as milk carts into outdoor seating. Add some plush pillows and you have yourself a gathering.

 Pretty in pink @ R80
There is something about garlands that just brings preppy and garnished so well into any space or event. And they are so inexpensive but brings color anywhere. Still to post up some more flavours!

These are my recycled beer cans which i turned into herb plant containers which i keep on my kitchen windowsill. These are easy to make on your own and add a twist by adding your personal touch to them!

 Wooden table coasters @ R40each
I turned a tree trunk i found at my friends backyard that was laying there for decades and turned into "plate coasters". I use them as my coasters to serve with, a bedside table and in my bathroom to keep all my products on. Basically they can be used anywhere around the house.

Upcycled Tin cans

I came up with this idea when thinking of how to upscale my garden at an affordable rate and it still keeping to been both beneficial and chic for my kitchen windowsill, patio, dinner table; the best is picking out fresh harvest and adding them to your meal, and anywhere else where the suns rays in. I like everything even in its form of been functional than décor but it to still fit into the theme. As recycling been my backbone to most my designs thought why not turn tin cans which I had in abundance into pot plants, easier to drill into and effortless to the pocket, no budget needed. And to add personality into your life form I painted them in all walks of color adding delight to the home. Happy gardening!

Recycled glass bottles

I love this décor idea and I been a fan to anything upcycled, makes this eco-friendly trend fun, easy and filling for any home. I love to have guests over and parking outside in my backyard bringing love and wholesomeness and making it come alive. I collect a whole lot of bottles and use them for everything in my home like sauce bottles, candle holders, shampoo bottles and galore basically anything you need around your home. It’s a lot of fun making them fit into your everyday. My most favourite is using them on the dinner table bringing some romance and intimacy, slight french vintage.I add my favorite elements; bright ornaments of flowers and if you want to add an element into your under the stars dinner, add some candle lights. Enjoy living and dining!
