DIY projects and craft ideas that are easy to make at home including kids craft projects.
Simple and inexpensive craft projects are always a favourite, and even better when you have all the materials on hand already! We recently tried our hand at making our own simple DIY friendship bracelets as a school holiday activity and it was heaps of fun! Best of all, we made them in under 15 minutes …
We went through a stage where our girls would watch Dreamworlds Trolls movie daily! Sometimes more than once for our youngest who was only a toddler at the time. It was something about the music and the high energy vibe that they were totally hooked on, and in all honesty, we love it too! In …
My kids adore all the most intricate and mess inducing toys. Think Barbies and all their accessories, My Little Pony, buttons, play money and all the other things that seem to spread from one end of the house to the other. These tiny toys seem to be their love language! They can’t get enough. Meanwhile, …
My eldest daughter loves to make things, so being school holidays, it seemed like the perfect time to introduce her to some new crafts. My initial thought was how fun it would be to make some pom poms, but we decided to step it up a level and create a pom pom rug instead! The …
Easter is less than 2 weeks away which means all the Easter craft fun begins! This year is my first year as a school mum so with that comes a few exciting extras too, including our first Easter bonnet parade on the last day of term next week. While some of my mum friends are …
By the time November rolls around, we are already starting to think about Christmas and all the things we need to fit in before the celebrations begin.

As a mother of 2 daughters, I know all too well the agony of having hair brushed… at least my eldest sure does make it sound like it’s agonising, with a constant stream of whinging! She has long hair, so of course there are knots from time to time. However, it wasn’t until her younger …
After a whirlwind of a year last year, which kicked off with the amazing honour of being part of the 2015 Becky Higgins Project Life creative team, it has sadly come to an end. It still feels all a little too surreal to have had the opportunity and it was simply amazing! Not only did …
It’s nice to spoil dad’s every now and again with something handmade with love, so Father’s Day is the perfect opportunity for a bit of creative gift giving. If finances are a little tight or you simply want to help the kids create DIY Father’s Day gifts he will love, there is sure to be …
When my daughter Lily was born, she received a lovely gift from a family friend – a handmade bedroom door sign with her name. This friend isn’t overly crafty herself, so it was a handmade gift she had gotten made for Lily. At the time I remember thinking how great it looked, but also how …
Anyone can create great baby photos at home, rather than having to splurge on expensive professional photo shoots in those early days. It only takes a few simple steps to set up and you can start snapping away in no time, hopefully creating baby photos at home that you love. In our family, I am …
Scrapbooking, whether it be traditional, digital, project life or some other variation that appeals to you, is one of the most creative and enjoyable ways to document memories. However not all of our memories are positive ones and many shy away from recording these difficult moments. But I encourage you to start recording the bad …
Project life is memory keeping simplified, but despite this, we can still fall behind and so many of us have been there, done that. Whether it be because life gets in the way or our creative juices stop flowing for a while, whatever the reason, falling behind happens easily and we are left to play …
Brought to you by Ryobi. Depending on where you are in the world, impending winter could mean your garden is about to perish.
