5 DIY ideas for your home that are easier than you think
If you want to spruce up your home without breaking the bank, check out these home upgrades you can achieve all by yourself.
1. Feature wall
If you’re looking for a pop of colour or have a wall in need of some TLC, try a feature wall. You can do this with paint, but if you want a wall that looks like it’s been renovated by professionals, try covering it with plywood panels. Arrange the plywood panels however you like on your wall and secure them with a nail gun, paint over the top of it and transform your room!
2. Wall storage
Invest in some wooden hooks to hang items on. Use items such as scarves, indoor plants, hats and bags for decoration and paint the hooks for a pop of colour.
3. Gallery wall
Dedicate a wall for paintings. It’s a good idea to pick artworks that are similar and will complement each other. Choose the same frame style so they all match, and line them up on the wall.
4. Style your bathroom
It is possible to transform your bathroom even if you’re less than handy! Think of a colour scheme and get matching towels, soaps, and mats. You can also make other simple changes by matching towel rails, door knobs and taps to bring the room together.
5. Paint your door
Totally transform your home with a new coat of paint on your front door. Bright colours make for a great feature and a stylish new front door will leave a lasting impression on guests. Use water-based gloss or semi-gloss paint for easy cleaning and durability. Paint your door in its frame or lay it on the floor and remember to remove knobs and hinges.
