The finished piece has a cosy handmade feel, with bright flowers, leaves, and a little bee stitched directly onto the canvas. I also reused the wooden frame, which gives the whole project a rustic, finished l]]></description><link>https://www.cosycornerschaos.co.uk/post/upcycled-canvas-embroidery-art-how-i-turned-an-old-canvas-into-floral-wall-decor</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a1427e3f3bc0136e51aa2c4</guid><pubDate>Fri, 29 May 2026 13:27:08 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/c3a610_4628279ec8f241fc850f741f9387deee~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Kimberley Rogan-Walker</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[How I Turned an Old Wooden Stool Top Into An Upcycled Lemon Tray]]></title><description><![CDATA[I love a good upcycling project, especially when it turns something old and unwanted into something useful again. This time, I took an old round wooden stool top and transformed it into a bright, cheerful upcycled lemon-themed tray, perfect for carrying drinks outside during the summer months. The shape of the stool top was already ideal for this project. It was round, sturdy and just the right size for a tray, so instead of throwing it away or leaving it forgotten in the shed, I decided to...]]></description><link>https://www.cosycornerschaos.co.uk/post/how-i-turned-an-old-wooden-stool-top-into-a-lemon-drinks-tray</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a141683183a32d20e309959</guid><pubDate>Wed, 27 May 2026 11:50:06 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/c3a610_0bf7b786b2304136a2a8e4f41a490255~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Kimberley Rogan-Walker</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[How to Make a Pretty Fabric Flower Picture Using Canvas, Twigs and Scrap Fabric]]></title><description><![CDATA[There is something so lovely about creating a piece of art from simple materials you already have at home. This fabric flower picture is a beautiful way to reuse an old canvas, frame, fabric scraps and even a few twigs from the garden.

I wanted to create something with a cosy, handmade feel, so I used layered fabric circles to make the flowers, wooden buttons for the centres, and real twigs for the stems. The result is a sweet rustic floral picture that would look lovely on a shelf, wall, craft]]></description><link>https://www.cosycornerschaos.co.uk/post/how-to-make-a-pretty-fabric-flower-picture-using-canvas-twigs-and-scrap-fabric</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a116a648fa816dacc808e5e</guid><pubDate>Mon, 25 May 2026 09:09:44 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/c3a610_2e313abc3a934efbb2b2e4999cf2b407~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Kimberley Rogan-Walker</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Creative DIY Decor Ideas for Family Gatherings]]></title><description><![CDATA[Family gatherings are special occasions that bring loved ones together, creating cherished memories.
