EASY DIY - Simple And Affordable Wall Art

Hello lovelies!  I love how easy it is to turn a simple empty box frame into a beautiful piece of wall art and that's what inspired this post. I will be showing you how to make these two beautiful pieces below:        Firstly you do not have to be really good at DIYS because to be honest I am rubbish at most if not all of them!  For both of these pieces of wall art you will need a box frame I used two completely different frames in the floral wall art piece I used a frame from ikea but in the mirrored quote wall art I used one from the range (that was only £2.99!).

DIY Shabby Chic Makeup Table

Hello,  As some of you may know I have been redecorating my bedroom and I have never had a really nice makeup table - ever!

When you have the disered look make sure it stays and won't get stained by the stuff on it by applying wax. I personally used the wax that the paint tin said to use which was Rust-Oleum Finishing Wax. And this was the end result.. Dun...
