As we get closer (I promise!) to rolling out our contributor feature and populating our specialty blogs with all kinds of lovely words, my attention is turning to all the DIY projects I’ve had in store for so long and I’m starting to pore over the links I’ve had saved for months and months!

Baker’s Twine has been popping up around the internet for a while now, but I have to say it is one of those items I have fallen headfirst for! Not only is it eco friendly, it just has this nice way of adding a special touch to projects.

I was delighted when I found US store The Twinery. With bakers twine in all kinds of colours (lemondrop, maraschino, peapod, mandarin & more). Wouldn’t this Twine Lover Pack look sweet on a white shelf?

The Twinery even ships internationally, hurrah!

Brown paper packages tied up with string… these are a few of my favourite things…
