Ready to make a DIY obelisk? I’ll be using mine for roses, but they can be used for support for any type of climbing plant. This obelisk trellis is 4 feet tall and takes advantage of vertical space in a garden. Plus it’s an inexpensive project- I break down the costs below. It’s an easy build that can be created in one day. Plus, there are no angled cuts. Let’s get started!
Framed Chinoiserie Panels
I love the look of framed chinoiserie panels! They’re a traditional Grandmillenial vibe that is very high end looking. Usually you’ll see them with gold bamboo frames that are extremely expensive. So, I decided to DIY some framed chinoiserie panels to save some money and I thought I could share a tutorial. Ready to get started?!
Note, I’ve read a bunch of tutorials on how to make Chinoiserie panels and all of them are simply instructions to buy a frame and putting the wallpaper inside. That is not a DIY project- that’s a simple assembly- lol. So this project will be actually making a bamboo frame and how to mount and hang the chinoiserie panels.
Here’s my inspiration image. A set of two beautiful chinoiserie prints that have been framed in gold bamboo frames.
I also made a my sketch of how I’d like my framed chinoiserie panels to turn out.
DIY Framed Pegboard for Art Supplies
I’ve been wanting to build a pegboard to store and display my son’s art supplies above his desk. This would also be perfect for a craft room. Today I’ll be sharing how you can create a DIY framed pegboard for art supplies, some ideas for organizing a pegboard, links for the best pegboard accessories, and the cost to make a diy framed pegboard of your own.
Tiled File Cabinet Planter
I have a little spot in my yard that’d be perfect for a planter. But the problem is, planters are expensive! So instead of buying a big fancy one, we’re going to thrift a filing cabinet and repurpose it to be a planter! Plus I’m going to tile it to make it even fancier. I have a whole tutorial for you on this DIY file cabinet planter that is such a high impact with a low price.
Before. Where the planter will go
DIY Garden Beds
5 weeks ago, I talked my husband into building me garden beds as his Mother’s Day gift to me. Well, he made them and we planted everything in time for it to be a great gift! But it wasn’t until today that I put the finishing touches on them. Honestly, I love these DIY garden beds and am SO glad we got them in early this year so we can enjoy them through the fall and for many years to come.
The first year we bought this house, I put a garden in the ground in another location. A few things grew, but mostly it was a fail. Last year I didn’t do a garden since we didn’t get to this house after spending the winter in Florida until June. At that point, it felt too late.
All that to say, having a successful garden now feels so great! And I love tending to it! Want to hear how we made it?
Ikea Alex Desk Hack
For my son Don’s room I want to add a desk where he can do homework and draw. Plus I want some storage for art supplies. So I decided to do an Ikea Alex desk hack! I’ll use the Alex drawers and upgrade them to look like a dollhouse shop. I’m so excited for this project and showing exactly how to make it.
If you like dollhouse furniture projects, make sure to check out the dollhouse nightstand and dollhouse dresser (both are IKEA hacks as well).
Alcove Bed IKEA Hack
For my 8 year old son’s room, I want to create an alcove bed for him. His room is big so I think building in a cozy bed nook will really help define the space. This project is an IKEA hack which feels appropriate since bed boxes have Scandinavian roots. Let’s get building!
How to Prep for Wallpaper
When it comes to wallpapering successfully, the key is good prep! After years of experience with adding wallpaper to every room of my house, I’ve learned how to prep by testing samples, smoothing, cleaning, priming, & planning out the layout. I’ll show how to prep for wallpaper with examples of when I did it right and wrong so you can look like a wallpaper pro too.
Bed Sheet Dress
I love the idea of making a bed sheet dress! You can use vintage sheets- which is a great way to save money AND use recycled fabric. Plus you can find really fun patterned fabrics. I’m using a Liberty of London print- which would be very expensive to buy. PLUS it has trim on the flat sheet and pillow cases that I can use on the dress!
Rainbow Easter Decor
One of my favorite holidays is Easter. I was born on Easter, I love the colors, and it’s the start of spring. Bunnies, chicks, tulips- it’s all good to me! So I thought I’d add decorations to my mantle, stairs, dining table, and make a wreath to create some rainbow Easter decor. I’ll share exactly what I did in case you want a similar look!
