Hacked

Hazel's bedroom is receiving a budget makeover. So the dull Ikea malm chest of drawers got hacked, I am not sure why they call it hacking when you revamp Ikea furniture, it sounds so naughty...anyway, the flooring got attacked with a paintbrush (modelled by our frequently naked in the summer heat Bear)...

and, lot's of handmade decor is underway, so much fun!

    Very pretty makeover! Don't be sprry, the photos are fine: typing's atrocious though ;-)

    I think they call it hacking because it sounds naughty! Personally I think it's more fun that way...

      ah those storage boxes are cheap as chips and last forever, I have some plastic bobbins but also cut my own from old carboard (cereal boxes) and sticks make perfect bobbins too!

      The drawer fronts on the malm chest have been covered in fabric and sprayed with acrylic varnish for a (reasonably) wipeable surface. I am not sure how practical it will be, but I figured I could replace it if it starts to get tatty...
