Hand-Painted Wallpaper
Who needs to fork out 100s of bucks on fancy schmancy wallpaper when you can make your own? All you need is some paint samples, a brush, and a piece of scrap wood to draw vertical lines along the wall. From there, you can create your own unique designs or geometric patterns, and voilà! Your very own customized wallpaper.
Create A Custom Mirror
A quick and easy DIY project for the home, all you need is an old or frameless mirror to create your reflective masterpiece. The beauty of this project is you can use anything to decorate your frame, from mosaic tiles to seashells to some rope. Remember, this is meant to be fun, so express yourself!
Upcycle Old Furniture
Have you got an old dresser or tatty coffee table that is a bit of an eyesore? Not to worry, because with a bit of sandpaper, fresh coat of paint (or varnish), and some TLC, you’ll take your old furniture from drab to fab in no time. Plus, you’ll save a few dollars too.
Paint Your Front Door.
Need to give your front door a welcome makeover? Get it, “welcome” makeover? Your front door is your home’s first impression, so it’s important that it’s always looking its best. This doesn’t require a lot of effort. Pick a bold color that complements your home’s exterior, a brush, and give it a fresh coat or two. It’s a small change that’ll make a big difference.
