Love farmhouse decor? So do I, but the price tags in the stores on some of my favorite rustic decor pieces is just ridiculously high. Why go expensive when you can go DIY?

Who wants some mass produced piece that only looks old and handmade? These DIY projects for your kitchen are just that, creatively handmade versions of all the best you see in stores. From wall art to kitchen countertop decor, you are sure to find one or more cool crafts to add to your weekend “to do” list. Already thinking DIY Christmas gifts, some of these are perfect ideas….

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
