DIY Home Decor

We are familiar with a popular saying “There's no place like home'' and indeed it is true. No matter where you go, your soul still resides at your home. It's where it all starts, from choosing the colors of the walls to choosing comfortable rugs. We slowly and steadily curate every corner with love and effort.

And this process goes on. We tend to pick the best things for our home. That's why we have brought some easy and quick DIY decor pieces which you can incorporate into your home. 

Plate Painting

This method needs some artistic skills and for inspiration, you can hop on Pinterest to save some ideas. Pick out any plain colored plates. Grab a bunch of acrylic paints and some brushes and start painting anything you like. A flower, a freehand design, anything as long as it goes with the color of your wall. This wall decor not only looks unique but will attract anyone's attention.

Framed Quote

We all have a quote to live by or a line from a movie or a lyric from a favorite song. Pick out a quote and simply make a print of whatever size you want, and frame it to place it on a shelf or hang it in any space you want.

Photo String Art

Your favorite moments can always be revived by just looking at some picture clicks or a polaroid. Print out some pictures you would like to hang as a wall drop. It can be your memorable family vacation, your special moments with your spouse, best friend or your parents. Clip them all together with a help of a paperclip on a thread or a hard string and your backdrop is ready.

Dreamy Lights 

Fairy lights or string lights give off a magical charm to any space. So instead of storing them away after the festive season, continue to decorate them in different ways like using them for your headboard, around a mirror frame, bookshelf, planters or as a wall drop. This little hint of lights creates a warm and fuzzy ambience.
