Mini Strawberry, Lemon and Shortbread Trifle | Madigan Made
One thing I love about buffets is the mini desserts. It means that instead of wasting your dessert on onething that might not taste good (or starts to taste bad after a while) you get to have multiple desserts with a little taste of everything! Who doesn’t love that?! These mini trifles would be perfect for your own buffet style dinner party (they’re so easy to make that you could make more than one dessert no stress!)
Frame Collage Headboard | Shrimp Salad Circus
Usually when people tell you how to do a wall mural, it involves a ton of measuring, cutting out pieces of paper the same size as your picture frames, sticking and unsticking, swearing and pencil marks all over the wall. This one is different! Shrimp Salad Circus instead uses the bed as a ‘layout’. This makes total sense- the bed is going to be as wide as the headboard will need to be. If you have a mish mash of frames, the best thing to do is take them and spray paint them all the same colour - it doesn’t matter if they are different styles. Buy some art from etsy, use pictures from magazines and of course, print out all those pictures from your camera!

100 Ways to Transform a T-shirt: (1) This 100% recycled, earth-friendly yarn is made entirely from t-shirts. One 3XL shirt can make roughly 70 yards! Tie dye the T before cutting to really mix it up.
Pictured is my own yarn, but you can find an easy to follow tutorial through THIS link. :)
