DIY coffee table

I had made 2 side tables earlier this year ( will upload the tutorial later) for my lounge room, But I wasn't really sure about keeping a coffee table in the room, since it's not that big, I wanted something small and light, And my DD spends most of her day in that room, I wanted something child friendly, light in weight, no hard corners...., I thought about using a soft furnished ottoman as a table, but I already have 2 ottoman as a side seats for the room plus a huge sofa, So the dilemma continued, until one day strolling across my local hardware store I saw building foam sheets, light in weight, not too hard not too soft..I literally had a light bulb moment, and the idea of making a coffee table came into being!

Urban chic in monochrome



I have been swooning over Raquel Allegra's tee's for sometime now. This LA based designer is famous for her deconstructed jersey and urban chic style, supported by a lot of fashionistas and celebrities. Once you find your first piece you will know why are people so hooked on this designer label. If you hear tie-dyes and shredded tee shirt, you'd imagine something very hippie and casual. Well it's not your conventional causal shirt, there are so many ways to wear it...dress it up... layer it, it is a one piece you want to have in your wardrobe for sure. I am posting two looks below, one is sporty casual, other very chic and feminine for a dinner date or a party (yes.. I am on a mission on keeping my wardrobe minimal to black, white and grey..for sometime)

DIY Dip Dyed Stool



Dip dyed furniture is probably a new take on last year's ombre technique, if you like clean lines with a dash of colour, this trend is definitely for you!
