Land of meg sent us this great idea.

Meg bought a second hand jigsaw puzzle with some pieces missing.

Instead of throwing it out, she painted all the pieces red and glued a

small magnet onto the back of each one. And voilà!

Camilla took some old boxes for photo paper and covered them in vintage fabric. A thrifty way of keeping old letters and photos organized.

Szilvia had to cancel a trip o her family in Hungary last Christmas and stayed at home in her
small 28sqm apartment. So she wanted to find an alternative christmas decoration
and got influenced by retro ornaments.
Now she likes it so much that her aternative chistmas tree
(the branch) stays and get different ornaments depending on the season.

I really love the wall lamp. Could someone please tell me how it was threaded through the holes? I really want to know, because I’d like to try something similar myself.
