Repurposed

This years' calendar

48 Sweettubs for two children in 2 different designs, matching napkins to wrap up the fillers and pegs to be numbered and to attach the tubs to string on the wall/ on a cardboard tree or deer or similar.

Custom order no. 2

                                               Mans' best friend on mans' best t-shirt.

Custom order

Long sleeve T-shirt (100% cotton), newspapers, cardboard cutout and spray bleach.

Cover table with newspaper, shove one paper into the T-Shirt, position the cutout and spray. It takes a minute for the fabric to lighten - when it is light enough and to your liking remove the cutout and paper and wash it immediately.

Present

after Delia Smith, whose recipes famously always work.

I customised a random apron with Dylon Fabric Pens and fixed the paint by ironing.

DIY Cushions

When I couldn't find some nice cushion covers I wanted that didn't cost a fortune I simply bought white pillowcases, cut them to size and ran them through the machine.

Then I printed the photographs I liked onto transferpaper and ironed them onto the covers.

"Winter" for the price of  some pillowcases (two for £ 1.99) and transferpaper (pack of two for £ 1.-).

Pumpkin Syrup

• 250 ml water
• 1 tbsp spicemix
• 200 g sugar
• 1 tbsp pumpkin puree

Simmer all the ingredients for about 10 minutes and fill into sterilised bottles (strain if desired). Add to warmed milk for a latte.

For an added colour-kick you could add 1/2 tsp turmeric to the spice mix.

Pumpkin and Spice and all things nice

• 2 tbsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp vanilla sugar
• 1 tbsp ginger
• 2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp allspice
• 1/2 tsp cloves

for pumpkin pies and whatever else takes your fancy.

Autumn Tealights

Special Hamper

It is special because it caters to a gluten free diet, with the sort of goodies this coeliac wouldn't usually splash out on.
