Upcycled Spice/Thread Rack

My craft project for this half term holiday has been a bit more upcycling, I'm getting quite into this now!

I found this old spice rack for £1(bargain!) in a charity shop in town...

a few coats of paint, some decorated letters and cotton reels later it looks like this...

And here it is, up on the wall and filled with my threads

The Lord said "Let there be light..."

...And there was novelty lighting, in the form of a chap lamp, and music paper lamps.

It was Jimmy's birthday last week, so I went with the usual theme of things with moustaches and decorated this lamp.

I say ol' chap, that's jolly spiffing, tally ho!

And then these mini lampshades for a string of fairy lights made with plastic cups and old music paper.  

Dog Bandana

Well it's only fair that Moppy has something to wear for dog agility training and competitions, after all, the humans get posh t-shirts. So I've made her a personalised doggy bandana!

I'll try and get a picture of her wearing it when it take it over for her.

And here it is, modelled by the lovely Moppy dog .
