Designing a home is like creating a living piece of art that you can live in every day. It’s not just the walls and the sofas, it’s the colors and textures and arrangements that make your house unique.
Ever wonder how to get these little touches right? You don't need to be an interior designer, because there are plenty of DIY projects that will help your makeover dreams come true!
In this blog post we're going to share everything from cheapo craft ideas for decorating with old t-shirts and thrift store finds to nifty tutorials on painting furniture or mounting artwork on concrete blocks.
DIY House Decor Ideas
1. Floating Shelves: This is one of the easiest home decor ideas to do on your own. Painting the wall behind the shelves with chalkboard paint will allow you to write your favorite quotes or even menu items vertically.
2. Decorating with Books: Instead of displaying photos or paintings, try something unique like a shelf of your favorite books!
3. Wall Mural: Painting a mural on your wall will make it feel more like a home than just a house. Use removable vinyl paper to draw out your design, and use masking tape to trace the lines before painting.
4. Feature Wall: Create a feature wall to draw attention to a particular area of your home. You can create a wall made entirely of mirrors, or use one color on one side and a different color on the opposite side.
5. Artwork: Embellishing your walls with unusual artwork is both artistic and unique. Frame some old books or newspaper clippings or hang some artwork made from yarn dragged across the floor and stretched over pieces of wood!
6. Paint for Decor: You can paint pretty much anything these days! Paint an old tray, an antique mirror, even your dog's water bowl!
