Pocket full of change {Idea}

A year ago we received a change jar for Christmas, I placed it in the laundry room as I always manage to find my husband’s pockets full of change. Over the year the change jar has survived pilfering for coffee and bus tickets and is now full of coins. We now have over $100 in the change jar! a little surprised by the bonus I am going to buy something for the house.
 
 
 
I have introduced another change jar in our bedroom.

What a great way to give yourself a little unexpected bonus, just like a good old fashioned money box.
 
Does anybody else do this?

Bone Inlay {DIY}

I have been lusting over beautiful bone inlay pieces for quite some time, the patterns are so intricate and exquisite but I just cannot justify the $pend.

Super keen for some DIY’s now that the craziness of the holiday season is over I have been checking out these amazing painted versions (Both stencil and freehand). A set of picture frames might be an easy start perhaps, has anyone tried it?
