Mini wooden storage box

I found this little wooden storage box in the works a couple of weeks back, and thought it would be nice to decorate, after all the fun I had upcycling the spice rack.
Pretty boring... how about a bit of paint?

A bit better... how about some pretty paper?

Lovely. All varnished and ready to go. I haven't got a clue what I'm going to store in it to be honest... but I'm sure I'll find something nice.

Hand Warmer

As it's still so flippin chilly out there I made my Gran a pocket hand warmer for her Birthday a couple of weeks ago.
I made this personalised cover, and inside is a plain cotton bag filled with rice. Pop the rice bag in the microwave for 30 seconds and hey presto, nice and toasty.
