I totally snagged this wonderful project from
Carole in Australia who posted her version last week. I loved this so much I went right to work with my own planter. Here’s what I came up with…

There’s more to DIY projects that meets the eye. Creating something special with your hands brings you joy, it relaxes you and helps you let go of over thinking, stressing and the hustle of the modern life. There’s a lot you can buy at the store that is beautiful and ready to hang on your wall, but can we really compare the feeling when you have done it by yourself?
DIY projects are a true an art therapy for our senses. You can practice mindfulness and concentration while you are focused on the task.
The hip, trendy ideas on handmade objects, elements, toys and decorations have become an obsession for many! We focus on clever, superb home décor ideas that you can mix and match, or even twist. Your taste and personalized approach is of utmost importance, because it brings an idea to life. What you put your efforts and your heart into beautifies everything around.

You can wave boredom goodbye and we will make sure it never returns. Your home can become a DIY wonderland with your simple efforts and little hints and winks form our side. We recommend switching between activities and giving our minds creative breaks from time to time. Doing-it-yourself means settling in your own presence and peace. Finding your next great potential and creating a divine object that utilizes the best potential of your home.
Your environment is as important as you are, so let’s find a way to incorporate more of what is specific to your taste and preference and less of everything else. We often find that store-purchased products are lookalikes to each other and we want to build something unique. Hence, the power of a DIY creation – it has all the best colors, features, textures and it cannot be repeated, even when it’s produced in the exact same way for a second time.
We share little shots of gratitude, awe, and inspiration in this category! There is so much you can do that is cheap, effective and adventurous. Most of the ideas we share are easily achievable on a budget, make us of things you already have lying around in cabinets and drawers. Grab your brushes, scissors, the old buttons from that winter coat and a cup of coffee – we have a lot to share!

Giving new life to a tired old piece of
thrift store furniture – creating this fabulous makeover for my guest room!
So I stumbled across this piece at a local thrift store and thought it would be prefect for my guest room! Just a matter of finding time to redo it….LOL And, as always around here first things first – removed drawers, hardware and took it out to the back alley for a good sanding and cleaning. Then it was time to repair legs and top. Glued the legs back together and then filed in all the “chunks” of missing wood with my AE Texture Medium – this poor little piece had seen it’s better days…..:(
I’ve had this rug in my house that is in desperate
need of a makeover. If you’re like me (and I bet you are), you despise throwing away an item that could simply be refurbished or made into something new! My $12 IKEA rug with coffee stains and all, has now been transformed into a trendy bohemian-style rug using only Sharpie markers and a quart of paint. Give it a try! We want to help you DIY, so some of the materials in this post are linked to sellers. Just so you know, Hometalk may collect a small share of sales from the links on this page.
I love a good thrift store upcycle project,
and when we recently updated our dining room to reflect our cottage farmhouse style I was looking for things to add some of that “fixer upper” style. I found these goodies at the thrift store and turned them into a vintage farmhouse style wall sconce!
Have an elf but need a heart?
No problem! Re-shaping cookie cutters that you will never use into ones you love is as rewarding as it is economical!
