I have a friend with the most gorgeous home ever! It's not that she's a millionaire, or that everything they own is expensive. What makes it gorgeous is that everything is so unique. Lots of what is in her house is thrifted, re-vamped and completely made their own.
Using a little helping hand from this super creative friend, me and D have started making our own print tray decoration for our flat.
Print trays are great pieces that can be used to hang on walls, or instead (and what we're hoping to do) is put a glass top and table legs on it, and use it as a coffee table.
They are such interesting pieces, as you can fill them with anything and everything special to you. The sections are all different sizes so you can pop different bits and pieces in each. As D has been travelling, we've started to fill ours with notes and coins from Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand, as well as a few pretty shells we found on the beach last holiday.
What I love most is the way that each tray you fill has so many stories within it. It's like a little scrap book that's always on show.
I can't wait for us to complete it! I'll be sure to show you when it's all done! For now, there's a few images of our work in progress, as well as some more glamorous Pinterest pieces.
Do you have any creative ideas for reusing old bits and pieces?
