Oh heeeeyyyyyyy! It’s been AGES since we’ve seen each other here on the bloggy. And it’s suddenly May now, what.

So you veteran readers know that I collect chronic health conditions as a side hobby. Well unfortunately they ALL flared up at once in April. It was about as fun as getting three simultaneous root canals. But I made it and things are slowly getting back to normal and I am ready to re-immerse myself in all things crafts.

I hope you are too because I found some beautiful DIY ideas to inspire your weekend!

+++ A new-to-me oldie, this pretty storage bench was created from an IKEA LAX cabinet. | Atelier de Curiosite (also in French, apparently I’m into French DIY blogs this week)

+++ Because everything’s better in mini, DIY mini wall weaving using a clipboard, no loom required! | Gathering Beauty
