Modern mobile

If craft is in your DNA, try this Danish-inspired dangler. First, squeeze a drop of PVA into the holes of two timber beads and push them onto the ends of a wooden dowel. When dry, paint each bead and a portion of the dowel, then seal with a coat of gloss varnish. Make as many as you like, then knot them evenly on cotton cord, tied off with a bead at the end.

 

Better tip: When making a few projects and creating
your own colours, mix enough paint to complete them all, then store
your custom colours
in small glass jars.

Air supply

Green thumbs and paint-covered fingers unite! Order the bell cups from CleverPatch, paint the rims in bright colours, then seal with gloss lacquer. Add air plants, which require  no soil, but do like an occasional mist from
a spray bottle. Gorgeous!

 

These cups are available from Cleverpatch.
