Epic mummy-daughter DIY project with leftover nail polish

Carved out some mother and daughter-time this weekend? With a little create flair you could have a whole new set of dinner plates or even a little Christmas pressie for Granny, all in time for afternoon tea

Little girls can pick the colours and do the dipping, Mums can supervise!

Turn boring coloured culinary items into this….
