Upcycled Jewellery Box

I love love love upcycling old pieces of furniture etc, give me a paint brush and some mod podge and you'll be my best friend forever.
I'm going to start posting some of my before and after photos, mainly to keep track on what I've done but also to see what you guys think. If you have any questions just leave me a comment below.

Here is an old jewellery box my friend gave to me to shabby up for her.

Before
After
I used Annie Sloans Old White paint (best paint ever) and some Cath Kidston paper.

What do you think?

Lush Pumkin Bubble Bar

I went into Lush the other day to check out some of their Halloween and Christmas goodies and I ended up leaving with this little cutie, the Pumkin bubble bar.


Yes he only has one eye, there was only 3 left and they were all one eyed pumpkins.

He contains ylang ylang oil and orange absolute to leave you feeling uplifted and refreshed. He also turns the bath water a pretty cool orange colour and I've managed to get 3 baths out of him seeing as he bubbles up pretty well. My skin felt so smooth after.
I'm planning on picking up the Lord of Misrule bath bomb next time I'm in store and no doubt another one of these will end up in my bathroom.
