VARIERA jewellery organiser - IKEA Hackers. Items used were with total cost of $62 AUD: 2x Rational Variera shelf inserts 1x Grundtal Magnetic knife rack 1x 3 pack Grundtal containers 1x Ribba picture ledge 1x Bygel rail 1x pack 10 Bygel ‘S’ hooks I used IKEA’s shelf inserts without their stands and screwed them directly into the wall. The holes in the shelf provided anchors for my earrings to be placed wherever I wanted. I used the knife rack and containers to house my studs earrings, rings and clasp earrings separately anyway I desired. I was able to insert my own labelling inside the container lid to identify contents. I used the picture ledge to hold my bracelets. On the underneath of the ledge I screwed a Bygel rail with hooks attached. This enabled me to hang my necklaces, grouping them as desired or hang separately depending on numbers. I love this arrangement as its very neat and tidy, everything is accessible and it will be quite hardwearing and adaptable to my needs as they change. ~ Alikazam The Author.

I'm excited about this easy Fall craft from my contributors, Sarah and Emily, from the blog Boxwood Clippings. They have great taste and are always coming up with simple and chic DIY projects. Hi Everyone! It's finally autumn, and today we're happy to share this DIY glittery leaf garland to spruce up your house for the season. You'll need a bag of artificial leaves, which we bought from the Dollar Tree, but any craft store should carry them. Next use a paintbrush to apply Elmer's glue to each leaf and then sprinkle glitter over the leaf.
Let the glue set and then shake off the excess glitter. Next punch a hole at the top of each leaf and attach a ribbon that you can tie to a large ribbon strand. These leaves are so shimmery and will add a little sparkle to your home for the upcoming months. -Sarah and Emily We are sisters whose goal is to have it all…balanced, organized and beautiful lives on a tight budget. 3 Ways to Decorate Halloween Skulls. Halloween is almost here! If you've been wanting to do a Halloween-themed craft, but keep putting it off, this is your chance to make some last minute decor before the big day. And, since all the Halloween crafts go on sale as it gets closer to Halloween, why not get more than one and try each of these 3 ways to decorate with skulls. Ready? Go! For the first one, we decided to look up some sugar skull inspiration and hand-paint some colorful elements onto one of the skulls. For the second skull, we are going to add glitter! For this last idea, we are going to add a funny prop!
There you go! Credits // Author and Photography: Laura Gummerman, Project Assistant: Josh Rhodes. DIY – le griffoir pour chat(s) | La liste des jolies choses. J’ai deux chats, Virgule et Cléo. Je suis relativement chanceuse, elles ne font pas leurs griffes sur le canapé ou sur les murs ou bien encore sur les vêtements ou je ne sais quoi d’autre ! Elles sont plutôt bien disciplinées, bientôt 3 ans que je fixe sur le côté de la bibliothèque du salon, un griffoir en corde, que je renouvèle régulièrement car elles lui vouent un culte dont vous n’avez pas idée.
Le seul petit hic c’est que c’est cher (pour ce que c’est), c’est compliqué d’en trouver des « simples » (à savoir rectangulaires et non en forme de souris, sans moquette et sans jouets qui pendent de tous les côtés) et puis c’est souvent moche du coup. Comme j’avais un bout de planche qui trainait dans un coin, des pots de peinture et que la grosse bobine de ficelle coût 1,50€ dans le bazar du coin, je me suis dit que j’allais leur en faire un joli ! Matériel Tutoriel Étape 1: définir les emplacements des clous ou vis qui serviront à fixer le griffoir une fois terminé. Étape 7: voilà ! Have a Sweater? Make a Pillow! One of my favorite things about Halloween (besides the candy of course) is the abundance of skull-adorned items that fill up the stores. I have an all-year-round attitude towards skulls, but it's fun to find and make new items "for Halloween" that I end up keeping out the rest of the year.
The thing that I love about this project is that, not only does it involve cross stitching (which, as it turns out, is so fun), but it's also sweater upcycling as well since you use a knit-based material as the base of your pillow. This is actually the first time I've done anything cross stitch related, so if you haven't tried it yet either, this is the perfect project to start with. So don't throw out that old sweater because we're going to make something new out of it!
We're so excited to team up with one of our favorite go-to stores in town, Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores, on this post! They're kind of a dream partner for us, because, well, we go there all. the. time. You Can Do It: 10 Not-Too-Tough Industrial Pipe Projects. If you love the industrial look of a loft but don't live in one, you can add some rugged style to your current place with a quick trip to the hardware store. Ready to get inspired? Read on. Some of these projects simply highlight the pipes you already have (see the brightly painted pipes above), but most use piping as material for a new project.
All are worthy of a try. We're still loving the classic look of pipe open shelving. If you're a confident DIYer, you can have this storage up in no time. Scott and Kristan elevated their shelves by choosing copper pipes to match their warm-toned kitchen. Even a beginner can take on this sculptural coat tree challenge. A rope-wrapped pipe in the bathroom prevents burns, looks pretty and can be done in mere minutes. A DIY chandelier adds some industrial cool to this classic room (and does it on the cheap!). No bed? Clever idea from Man Made. This easy tripod lamp project is super simple, but just look at that classy copper. Birdy look for LACK. DIY Embroidered Photo Art. One of my favorite things to do is make crafts from my favorite photos!
I've been planning some hybrid craft/photography projects for a while and this is a favorite. Adding embroidery to your photo is fun, easy and so cute. Here's how I made this photo art... 1. 2. 3. 4. Next, print your photo. For the craft portion of this project you will need: An 8x10 inch photo, an 8x10 inch frame, colored pencils, embroidery thread, a needle, some burlap, glue and scissors. Trim your photo to size. Use colored pencils to sketch the embroidery that you want to add.
Alright, take a small needle and start stitching! This is a fun detail... did you know that by making several knots in a row you can create a little flower? It's time to finish stitching all the details on your photo. Last, add a cute burlap (or any textile) border to the top and bottom on your photo. Have fun making your own photo art! DIY Stripe Doorway... with washi tape! A little while ago I purchased some extra large interior washi tape from Etsy. I wasn't sure what I would use it for, until I had the idea to give this doorway a little pop of color and texture.
This project was so much fun, not too time consuming and it's totally "renter friendly" too! I love the look of painted stripes in home decor, but I've shyed away from them in the past because they look so time consuming. God knows I'm no perfectionist, so this method was the perfect alternative! I found this fun larger washi tape at this Etsy Shop. Best part is... eventually, when I get tired of it, it will be super easy to remove! Do you have any fun weekend projects planned? Faire un coussin sans mesure … | Café Rose.

How To: Make a Clementine Candle. DIY Light-Up Café Sign. Hi, guys! Mandi here. Ranking among my favorite decor trends this year is definitely the light-up kitchen sign.
I adore the neon lights and vintage beer clocks, but something that most of us can afford and appreciate is a light-up café sign. And who knew? My inspiration for this project came from this light-up frame found on Handmade Charlotte, and after searching the Internet to see if anyone else had made something similar, I found this great project from Vintage Revivals.

Weaving Class: Creating Shapes and Getting Fancy. I'm back with the second of three installments of Weaving Class to teach you how to make simple shapes and customize your wall hanging with a little paint and fun tassels. In the first class we covered the general tools you need to get started and set the foundation with a few basic things you need to know to create your first wall hanging. If you find yourself getting stuck on something, head back to the first tutorial for a quick review. My first wall hanging was pretty simple in theory. There were rows of straight lines in different thicknesses with a little rya knot row, a basketweave, and even a shape made out of a negative space.
I liked it, but it was early days and didn't really feel like my style yet. I started to notice different weavers popping up on Pinterest and finding them in my Instagram feed and started to recognize their unique styles by certain colors they used or ways they paired old and new media. Supplies: -Loom. -Cotton yarn for the warp. -Yarn for your weft. Transforming Clocks: Two Designs Geeks Can Love. DIY Geometric Paper Wall Hanging | Sweet Peas and Saffron. By Denise on April 9, 2014 Look! I did another craft! Well…this one has actually been in the making for awhile, but I just couldn’t seem to get the last steps finished until this week. I’m not entirely sure what to call it…like a mobile?
But that hangs on the wall? So, many long years ago (um…3), we painted our ugly old spare room. And there it sat. I have decided to decorate it on the most minimal budget possible. Cost of this project: -heavy craft paper $5 -dowel $2 1) Download a template for these ‘cubes’…I think they’re technically called ‘polyhedrons’. I cut out the template and traced it onto my craft paper. 2) Fold along the lines. 3) Glue along the little flaps. 4) Repeat! 2) Thread a needle and run through the top of the cube. 3) Knot. 4) Tie the other end to the dowel. . * To hang the dowel, Ben drilled a hole on either end of it, and I ran twine through, tying it off. I’m pretty happy with how they turned out. Best of all, the project cost us $7 and fills up one big old empty wall!
Weaving Class: The Basics. If you learn one new medium this summer, let it be how to weave. It's one of those centuries old traditions that is both practical (in certain forms) and beautiful and can be sort of soothing to the soul. Wall hangings are a great way to cut your teeth on weaving and add instant charm to your space. This tutorial is a simple wall hanging with a few different elements you'll need to make your own interesting piece. It's the first part in a series I've developed with Elsie and Emma to share what I've learned through trial and error in my own experiments with weaving. Grab a cup of coffee and settle in. I decided late one afternoon in 2013 that I wanted to teach myself how to weave.
Soon after, I made a weaving that I turned into a clutch, and even took on the monster project of weaving my own 4' x 6' rug from strips of fabric. Supplies: -Loom. -Cotton yarn for the warp. -Yarn for your weft. -Wooden dowel rod, copper pipe, stick, etc. -Tapestry needle. -Shuttle. -Shed Stick. -Scissors. DIY Project Idea: How to Make a Small Entryway Wall Organizer (with Magnets!) — Apartment Therapy Tutorials. As renters, we take what we can get, and what we often get are miniscule (or non-existent) entryways and a lack of built-in storage. This multi-faceted organizer has a variety of ways to hang your stuff — coats, bags, and umbrellas — so they are at your fingertips as you head out the door, and stay tidy when you come back in. As a neat bonus, it also has a magnetized area for keys. You can learn how to make one yourself, right after the jump!
