DIY Home Décor: The Light Bulb Vase. This week we’re sharing some of the blog’s greatest hits! These are some of our most loved posts by you, our amazing readers. Don’t throw away those old light bulbs just yet! I have a fun, easy DIY for you that will brighten up your home decor or workspace :) This DIY is very simple, but it requires working with glass so you definitely need to be careful! What you need: A light bulb (any shape or size will work!)

Step One: First you need to remove the little silver layer on the bottom of the light bulb. Step Two: Now you have to remove the black cap from the bottom of the light bulb. Step Three: Once the black glass was removed it was really easy to get the little glass tube and wiring on the inside of the bulb out – I simply tapped it with the pliers and it broke right off. And now you have your empty lightbulb! Step Four: Add flowers and water, and hang with the gardening wire! Now I want to make more! Be sure to check out our new DIY Projects category for more DIY Inspiration! Small Space Gardening Ideas. On a warm summer morning, what’s better than waking up and stepping right outside onto your patio, barefoot, with no plans other than to explore the gorgeous, overgrown, garden in your backyard, stopping to admire the newly budding flowers and taking in the most exquisite scents your nostrils have ever experienced?

Except that most people I know don’t own such a garden. Because our backyards are the size of our bathrooms. Don’t fret, though, because there are a ton of ways to get around it! Here are some great small space gardening ideas: Pallet gardens are amazing – and take up no space at all! Fill a pallet with soil, plant an eclectic mix of greenery, hang it on a wall, and watch it come to life! (Quick tip: Certain stores, like hardware stores, discard of pallets all the time – ask around and you’ll be sure to score a free one!) Chandelier gardens are incredibly beautiful — and you can hang them outside or in! I love the idea of a suitcase garden just chilling outside in the sun. Painted Wallpaper. I first saw "painted wallpaper" a little while ago but I HAD to do it!! She even has the template you can download! I decided to make my pattern a little bigger (because I'm lazy and didn't want to paint as much!)

So I enlarged it before I printed it. If you're like me you don't have hours and hours to spend on any project so I would paint a few then wrap my paint up tight in a bag to keep it from drying out. Works great!! Let me just say that my wall is FAR from perfect but the great thing is you really can't see the imperfections unless you really get close and stare for an awkward amount of time. Nobody looks that close... except for maybe your mom... and your sister... but that is only because they are trying to figure out how you did it so they can copy you!

Don't let the fear of imperfection stop you from doing this! Total time spent: About an hour a day for 6 days (to do a 10x14ft wall) Total cost: $0 I just used the leftover paint from the wall and added a little white paint to lighten it.

We all know with craft blogs that original ideas are often hard to come by, we find ideas we love and make them our own but we didn't come up with the idea ourselves. I feel like I've finally done something original here and I'm excited about it. I'll show you the finished product and then explain. Behold my Make-up Magnet Board. I have a friend who is beautiful and stylish and has always loved make-up but recently took a course that intensified her love. Her renewed interest has worn off on me and it made me remember eye shadows I'd hidden away that were gathering dust. I pulled them all out and was shocked at just how many I had. My old make-up organization/storage consists of a basket that sits on my bathroom counter, I put all my hair stuff and make-up stuff in the basket and used maybe 3 shadows in my daily rotation.

The basket was a mess and I was overwhelmed with all my choices never knowing what to use, digging through to see what I had and find what I wanted was a pain. 10.jpg (JPEG Image, 600 × 891 pixels) - Scaled (86.
