Where the magic happens...


I joke, there is zero magic happening in this gypsy's bedroom but I couldn't help myself and be a little bit cliche. So as you know I bought a mandala and I am literally in love with it. My wall was a little bare, so instead of making it a bedspread I decided to use it as a wall tapestry. Bring on DIY Marlow. 

Ps I should never be allowed to touch a hammer so this was a disaster

My boudoir before I create mandala magic! 




And so it begins….











So proud of myself, best handy woman EVER!








The finished product, needless to say I am in love!









Mandala me happy




Yes I know my heading doesn’t make sense but I am just super excited to share with you my most recent purchase! If you hadn’t already guessed I am now the proud owner of a Mandala tapestry.


For those who are reading this going ‘what the heck is a mandala’ a mandala is a circular figure representing the universe in Hindu and Buddhist Symbolism. The word itself is loosely translated to mean circle. I went online to the mandala project and they described it like this:



‘It represents wholeness, and can be seen as a model for the organizational structure of life itself – a cosmic diagram that reminds us of our relation to the infinite, the world that extends both beyond and within our bodies and minds… Describing both material and non-material realities, the mandala appears in all aspects of life: the celestial circles we call earth, sun and moon as well as conceptual circles of friends, family and community’.





Or for those of you who aren’t too fussed on the meaning or symbolism behind mandala they are just beautiful, symbols of art that you can use to hang as a wall tapestry, bed spreads or beach side blanket. Get your mandala on my sweets
