Breathe new life into your space: 4 weekend projects

Feeling like your home needs a little pick-me-up, but don't have the time (or budget) for a major overhaul? Fear not, fellow warriors of the weekend! We've got you covered. In this post, we'll explore a collection of easy and achievable updates that will transform your space in just two short days.

1 - Cheat a trend: tile your bedroom (without the grout!)

Dreaming of a stunning tiled wall in your bedroom but worried it might feel too cold or industrial? You can achieve a similar impactful look with a touch more softness by using tile-effect wallpaper!

2 - Add some vintage Bobbin legs.

There's something undeniably charming about vintage furniture, and a key element of that charm often lies in the details. Named for their resemblance to spools used in sewing, bobbin legs boast a distinctive turned shape that tapers at the ends. They were particularly popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, gracing everything from chairs and stools to side tables and even beds.

Vintage style with a modern feel - our Bobbin range of furniture legs will bring a heritage feel back into your furniture and add character and charm to your overall decor. Available in natural raw hardwood and you can choose from 12 different finishes from our in-house service to match your style.

But why are these vintage legs still capturing hearts today? Here are a few reasons:

Versatility: Bobbin legs work wonders on a variety of furniture styles. They can add a touch of whimsy to a farmhouse table, lend a classic elegance to a sofa, or bring a rustic charm to a plant stand.

Timeless appeal: Vintage design never truly goes out of style. Bobbin legs add a sense of history and tradition to any piece, making it feel instantly unique and special.

Durability: Built to last, vintage wooden legs are often crafted from solid hardwoods like oak or maple. With proper care, they can grace your furniture for generations to come.

Bonus Tip: Don't be afraid to mix and match! Vintage bobbin legs can be paired with a modern table top or a brightly coloured fabric for a truly unique look.

3 - Paint a feature wall outside

Show your outdoor space some love. Give a patio or backyard a fun, budget-friendly makeover by using paint to create a feature wall or define a seating area. For example, a rich blue-green shade would be set off beautifully by a crisp white wall for a summery Mediterranean feel.

4 - Upgrade your shelves

The scalloped-edge trend is here to stay! Lean into the look by giving shelves a fun trim. These strips are easy to glue or Velcro onto your shelves and you can paint them to match the rest of your scheme. Extend the trend by painting or stencilling a scallop design on the walls too.
