IKEA KULLEN 5 DRAWER

The Ikea Kullen 5 Drawer is great for organising your essential clothing items. The drawer itself is slim and narrow so great for small spaces. It has 2 shallow drawers at the top and 3 deeper drawers underneath. I would recommend using it for items such as vests, t-shirts, socks, underwear and pyjamas.

As you can see from the images above, I like roll my t-shirts so I can see all the colours I have. This is also very space saving and keeps is neater for longer.

The top shallow drawers are great for storing your socks and tights. Again, I like to roll these so I can see what I have.

Watch my youtube video on how I organise my clothes in the Ikea Kullen Drawer.

DIY M&S WEDDING CAKE

COOKING

Getting married but shocked at the prices of wedding cakes? Well, why not have a go at making your own cake for your big day with a helping hand from Marks and Spencer. If you’ve never checked out their wedding cake selection online you’ll be spoilt for choice with their variety of cakes available to order in as little as 7 days. Their classic plain fondant icing cake (which comes in 4 sizes) is perfect for stacking on top of each other than decorating, so that’s exactly what I did for a relatives wedding. Have a look at the images below to see how I created a beautiful floral ombré 4 tiered cake.

What I used:

M&S plain fondant icing cakes in all 4 sizes. You can choose from vanilla sponge, chocolate sponge or fruit sponge. We went for vanilla and it was absolutely delicious - so soft, moist and fresh.

For the decoration I used Redshaw Ready to Roll Icing in shades Red and Burgundy and a Silicone Rose Mould from Amazon.

Using the mould is very easy but you must grease it first with a little bit of oil or else the fondant gets stuck inside and it's really annoying to take out.

I used cake dowels to hold the cake up or else it would have caved in. And lastly, I also used good old Betty Crocker Velvety Vanilla Icing to stick the cakes together as well as stick the fondant flowers on.
