If you’ve always had a creative side to you, going DIY shouldn’t be a problem for you. It will allow you to create exactly what you want for your home, guaranteeing that your home decor will be as unique as you are.
In this blog, you’ll find 10 DIY home decor projects you can whip up in a weekend or two. Be inspired and let your creativity shine through with these fun projects for your home.
1. Personalized Wall Art
Dream of turning one of your walls into an art gallery exhibit? You’ll need art pieces for that. Time to bring out your inner Picasso by creating your very wall art.
If you want to create unique experimental pieces, you can get a bit of help with your artistic vision with CF Spark Art, Creative Fabrica’s primary AI art generator. Just type a description of what you have in mind and choose the appropriate image ratio. The tool recommends 2:3 for portrait art and 3:2 for landscape art.
2. Door Name Plates
Door name plates are fun instant pieces that you can switch up every season or holiday. Put them up on each bedroom in the house, labeled with the name or nickname of the occupant. If you want to use beautifully unique fonts, try looking up designer fonts on Creative Fabrica.
3. Decoupage Old Jars and Bottles
Got a pot of Mod Podge and some used jars and bottles you can’t seem to throw out? Why not decoupage them? Decoupaged glass makes for elegant storage and vases that you can use as ornaments around the house to bring a rustic charm to your decor.
4. Crochet Pillowcases and Blankets
If you want to create a really homey atmosphere, incorporate crocheted items into your decor, whether it’s with blankets strewn over your sofa or pillowcases accented with lovely crochet squares. If you’re a newbie at crochet, the good news is you can use blankets as your practice pieces as they don’t require much shaping or complex techniques.
5. Macrame Plant Hangers
If you’ve got a ton of potted plants or would like more but have no more space, make room for them up high! Macrame plant hangers are easy DIY projects you can take on in an afternoon. The best part is that you don’t need a ton of supplies to make them – if you’ve got macrame rope, you’re good to go!
6. Photo Tiles
Do you have a bunch of leftover tiles that you don’t know what to do with? Here’s an idea: how about making photo tiles? With your leftover tiles, some beloved printed photos, and Mod Podge, you can create photo tiles you’ll love to display. You can either use one tile for a photo or deconstruct a bigger size picture to create a blown-up photo with a puzzle effect.
7. Personalized Candles
Loved scented candles? Then create your own! Soy candle making kits are readily available online and in craft stores. The best thing about DIY candles is you can put your own touch on the containers! To go eco-friendly, recycle pretty-looking jars (or decoupage them).
8. Key Rack
Are you always losing or misplacing your house keys? Here’s a DIY project that’s both decorative and useful – a key rack. If you have a cutting machine, you can make a laser cut key rack with laser cut SVG files for crafts available on Creative Fabrica.
9. DIY Doormat
Who says functional pieces can’t be decorative? Your doormat deserves some DIY love. Add a bit of personality to the piece that greets your guests at the door with a DIY doormat. You can create your unique greeting with your cutting machine and stencil it onto your blank doormat with acrylic paint.
10. Paper Mache Basket Storage
Want to be more organized with your little knick-knacks at home? Create paper mache baskets to keep your space tidy. If you’ve been meaning to get rid of your old magazines, you can use them instead to weave your baskets. Use some spray paint so your baskets look polished and ready for display.
