I have several picked out to make next and can’t decide which one to start on this weekend. I am super excited to help my teenage daughter make the ombre wall hanging for her room, so we will probably start with that one. From cheap but stylish home decor to some of the most creative wall art ideas we’ve ever seen, you are going to fall in love with some of these. Check out the easy to follow step by step tutorials we found from some of our favorite DIY blogs. Get your yarn scraps out, you know, those that you’ve been saving for years because they were too pretty to throw away but too small to make anything from, and get busy putting them to use.

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.
