Decorating your home from top to bottom is extremely expensive, especially when you factor in the cost of furniture, paint, minor renovations, and decorative accents.

The next time you have some downtime, bust out your toolkit (when needed), craft supplies, and get to work on these easy home projects. Some of them, like faux concrete walls and hand- painted wall decor, will completely transform the room in mind, while others will simply add a handmade, Pinterest-worthy touch without breaking the bank.

Whatever case, these easy-to-make decor ideas will give your bedroom, living room, kitchen, entryway, or any other room in your house new life — no serious handyman or crafting skills required. A lot of the DIYs on this list even tap into today’s top end design trend everything from antique art to vintage accents. Plus, just think about how great it'll feel when guests ask where your [insert DIY creation here] are from. (They're from you,thank you very much.)



Faux Concrete Wall

Bring different textures into your space by painting a concrete-inspired wall. Once you gather your grey paint, dry paintbrush, and lint-free cloth, follow a forgiving buffing technique until you nail your desired look.



Half-Painted Art Go halfsies on paint in a variety of coordinating paint colors to turn garage-sale art into a bold colorblock display.


Plant Pedestal

Paint a wooden pedestal in any solid color of your choice, and then use it to play up different heights in your space with stacked books and fresh greens.



Star Rope Mirror

This stunning star mirror looks intricate, but it's surprisingly easy to DIY if you follow the step-by-step guide. An added bonus: It costs less than $25 to make



Nautical Vase

Jute rope turns a cheap vase into a statement piece. It's as easy as it looks: Simply, hot-glue jute rope around a vessel for a beach-ready look.




Print-Out Art

Dress up bare walls with one of the photos on your camera roll. Get a favorite shot digitally enlarged and then add strips of wood along the top and bottom as a quick frame.




Candle Lampshade

The dinner table shines brighter with a few clever "lamps." Just pop a LED tea light in a wine glass and top it with a paper shade.




Wool Coasters

This simple craft turns your tattered cardigans and shrunken pullovers into coasters that you can use time and time again. Wash 100% wool in hot water, then dry with an agitator like jeans. After three rounds, sweaters should feel taut and felt-like. Use a pencil and a large-mouthed glass to trace circles onto the fabric and then snip out a set.




Tissue Box Cover

Create a stylish tissue box cover that'll last beyond cold season: To make, coat a wooden tissue box cover with polyurethane three times. Cut 4 2" wide strips of veneer, one to fit each side of the box. Glue on strips and coat both sides of each strip with glue, as well as the entire box and let dry.




Book Side Table

Put your dusty encyclopedias to good use with this side table. To assemble, cut trim to form a box frame that fits snugly around one book, nail it to the tabletop’s underside, and paint the top. Drill a hole the size of dowel through each book’s center and glue the dowel to the center of the table's underside. Stack encyclopedias, lining up holes, and twisting (as shown). Skewer the dowel through the holes to secure them to the tabletop




Laundry Bag

This patterned laundry bag, made with fabric, ribbon, and an embroidery hoop, will keep your delicates in one spot. To make, clamp the pillowcase into the hoop, tie on a loop of ribbon to the hoop's clamp, and hang near your hamper.




Ruffle Accent Lamp

See? You can fill your home with Anthropologie-inspired decor at a fraction of the price. All you need is a hot glue gun, old lamp, and linen fabric.



Pendant Lights

A set of nesting bowls can accessorize your shelf or illuminate the dinner table, all thanks to this bright idea. Bonus: You can make it in under an hour.



Dip-Dyed Napkins

Bring bursts of color to your dining table by sticking plates and utensils on colorful ombre linens — napkins, place mats, table runners, and more.
