Cheap and Easy Hand-Wash Upgrade

I've been wanting a nice handwash dispenser for a while but I just haven't got around to finding one. Recently I bought a Tesco Value hand soap for the bathroom and I realised that if I pulled the label off it would just be a nice plain white bottle. Then I thought to decorate it with Sharpies to match the toothpaste mug I have.




I think it looks really sweet now and it was basically a free project as the soap was the cheapest I could get anyway to have in the bathroom (and it smells really nice!) and I already had the coloured Sharpies It was really easy to do, if you go wrong, you can wipe it off with some nail varnish remover. I'm not sure whether it will last, it might fade or rub off with use but if it does I can clean if off and put another design on.

Happy Easter and A Mini Easter Craft

Happy Easter! I hope you're all enjoying lots of yummy chocolate today!

I am actually home alone until this afternoon so I decided to make some little Easter baskets and fill them with chocolate for my boyfriend and sister. They only took a few minutes each and they look so cute!



I used this tutorial, but made them a bit smaller and I didn't bother with covering all the staples, I just used some pretty washi tape to cover them on the outside and left them showing on the inside (the chocolates cover them anyway and I don't plan to keep them to use again). The card I used was some pretty stripy card left over from some packaging on something I got ages ago.
