SAPHIRE'S HOMEMAKER TIPS/CHRISTMAS EDITION/PROJECT 1 DRINKS STORAGE

UNFORTUNATELY WHERE I LIVE AT THE MOMENT ISN'T MY DREAM HOME, BUT THAT DOESN'T STOP ME BEING FEMININE AND TRYING TO MAKE MY HOUSE A HOME.

WITH THE POST COVID NON AESTHETIC VALUES INTERIOR DESIGN THEME; MAKING A HOME IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE.

NON OF MY TASTE IS IN THE SHOPS AND MY FAVOURITE SHOPS HAVE BEEN BOUGHT OUT BY PEOPLE INTO WORLD WAR 2. OUT OF EVERY INSPIRATION YOU COULD CHOOSE, WORLD WAR 2 IS MY LEAST FAVOURITE THEME FOR INTERIOR DECORATION. IF YOU LIKE WORLD WAR 2, MAYBE YOU SHOULD LOOK INTO YOUR FAMILY HISTORY, THEN YOU MIGHT FIND YOU DON'T LIKE WORLD WAR 2 MUCH EITHER. FOR INSTANCE PEOPLE DIDN'T EAT CAKE.

EXPERIMENTING WITH HOMEMAKER AND BEAUTY IDEAS

THIS WEEK I HAVE BEEN EXPERIMENTING WITH A FEW IDEAS, EXPERIMENTING TAKES TIME THOUGH. NOW I PAY FOR MY OWN PRODUCTS I FEEL I CAN DO A PROPER JOB WITH MY EXPERIMENTS, INSTEAD OF DOING A RUSH JOB UNDER PRESSURE. STARTING TO GET SOME RESULTS WHICH I WOULD THEN LIKE TO PRESENT IN A PROFESSIONAL MANNER.

AS I CAN'T PURCHASE WHAT I WANT HAD A GO AT MAKING SOME MAKESHIFT PRODUCTS, TILL WHAT I WANT COMES BACK.

FREEZER BAG HAUL

QUITE EXCITED WITH THIS IDEA AS I LOVE FREEZER BAGS AND BAKING PARCHMENT ETC. GOT QUITE A STASH BUILDING UP AND STARTED EXPERIMENTING WITH THEM LAST NIGHT. USED THEM ON THE 4 PIZZA WEDGES I LEFT TO GO COLD LAST NIGHT. AS I'D ONLY BEEN GETTING ONE MAKE OF FREEZER BAG, THEY WEREN'T SUITABLE FOR ALL MY FREEZER BAG NEEDS. TRIED 3 DIFFERENT MAKES LAST NIGHT AND THINK THE PRESS AND SEAL BAG IS JUST THE ONE I WAS MSSING.

TEMPORY BAR

CHRISTMAS PROJECT 1

IF YOU CAN'T PURCHASE A BAR AT THE MOMENT WHY NOT TRY THIS PROJECT FOR CHRISTMAS.

TRYING TO PURCHASE SOME ARGOS FURNITURE TO DO OUR HOUSE UP A BIT FOR CHRISTMAS, BUT AS IT HASN'T ARRIVED DECIDED TO MAKE A KIND OF TEMPLATE FOR HOW IT WILL LOOK.

STORAGE AT CHRISTMAS CAN BE A NIGHTMARE IF YOU LIVE IN A SMALL HOUSE.

WE DID HAVE A DRINKS CABINET BUT IT IS NOW STASHED WITH DVDS.

THIS IS A PROJECT ALSO, TURNING AN UNUSED CUPBOARD INTO A DRINKS CABINET. (CAN'T USE THE DVDS AT THE MOMENT SO WILL PACK THEM INTO STORAGE AS SOON AS I GET MY NEXT HAUL}. THE CUPBOARD HAS A TIKI FEEL IS AN IKEA CUPBOARD PRE NON AESTHETIC.

IF YOU CHOOSE A CUPBOARD WITH A GLASS DOOR, IT IS A PERFECT DRINKING GLASS CUPBOARD ALSO.

CLEARING SPACES TO DISPLAY CHRISTMAS 2022

TIKI PRODUCTS ARE USUALLY QUITE ABUNDANT TO PURCHASE, CHEERFUL AND SUIT EVERY BUDGET. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE STYLES, THINK IT IS THE HAPPY COLOURS AND THE FUN AESTHETIC. COMPLETE CONTRAST TO WORLD WAR 2 AUSTEITY MEASURES BEIGE. MIGHT USE THIS THEME FOR CHRISTMAS 2002 ACTUALLY, IF NONE OF MY ZENMAS PURCHASES ARIVE. WILL DISPLAY THEM ON MY CLEANED OUT TIKI CUPBOARD IF THEY DO ARRIVE.

DESIGNATE YOUR DRINK DISPLAY AREAS

THE FIRST PART OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CHOOSE WHICH CUPBOARD IS GOING TO BE YOUR DRINKS CUPBOARD AND WHICH IS GOING TO BE YOUR BAR. THIS CAN ALL BE CONVERTED BACK AFTER CHRISTMAS OR MAYBE PROPER FURNITURE MIGHT OF COME BACK BY THEN.

REALLY BASIC BUT IT WORKS

OUR BAR THIS YEAR IS JUST A FOIL TRAY ON TOP OF A WORKSURFACE. REALLY REALLY BASIC BUT IT HAS WORKED. THIS FREES UP OTHER STORAGE.

WILL DO A TIKI AND CHRISTMAS HAUL AS AND WHEN WE AQUIRE PRODUCTS.

THE FIRST PART OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CLEAR SPACE AND WORKSURFACE AREAS.

HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE MORE LIQUER CHOICES THAN LAST YEAR, CAN WORK OUT WHERE TO STORE AND DISPLAY PARTY DRINKS THOUGH.

SHOPPING IDEAS

AS I DON'T STOCK THE SHOPS CAN'T SAY WHERE OR WHAT TO GET, BUT THINK OUTSIDE THE BEIGE AUSTERE BOX. IDEAS ARE SILVER TRAYS, PINK FAIRY LIGHTS, TIKI PARTYWEAR, TIKI TRAYS. TIKI DRINKS TWIZZLERS, CHEAP SILVER TINSEL CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS, DIFFERENT COLOURED FAIRY LIGHTS AND SO ON, KEEPING IN MIND THE AMOUNT OF SPACE YOU HAVE AVAILABLE FOR THIS PROJECT. GET YOUR PRODUCTS TOGETHER AND DRESS UP YOUR DRINKS AREA.

IT WILL LOOK GOOD IN A PHOTOSHOOT ALSO.

YOUR FIRST HAUL MAY NOT NET IN ENOUGH CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS, BUT THE NEXT SHOP YOU WILL HAVE MORE IDEA WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.

HOPE YOU LIKE THIS IDEA.

IF YOU LIKE THIS IDEA I AM HOPING TO DO MORE OF THESE TYPE OF PROJECTS AS I TRY TO SORT MY LIFE OUT, PARTICULARLY MY LIFESTYLE, BOTH FASHION AND INTERIORS.
