“Treat your home as your canvas and adorn your walls with hangings, paintings, stencils, papercrafts, tapestries, hanging plants and more. Make your own decals from wallpaper and turn that beautiful vintage print you’ve always admired into a work of art in your living room. Wall Art will show you how to decorate a child’s bedroom with a jumping hare made of washi tape and how to weave a group of little, Aztec-inspired wall hangings to bring a touch of texture to a bare wall. Update your interiors with these innovative, contemporary projects, some of which can be created in an afternoon. You’ll have a great time making 3D paper flowers inspired by iconic Scandinavian prints, simple macrame wall hangings that will transform any space, and moving paper horses that gallop when you pull their tails. All you need to do is find a bare wall and get started!”

  8. Oh how I need this book. I’m getting ready to do a gallery wall above my fireplace and in need of ideas for things to add to my pictures. Thanks so much for the chance to win this book.

  10. This sounds like a great book! My husband already thinks I’m a bit over the top with my wall ideas, but this could really make my ideas works of art!

  19. Would LOVE to try out some of these ideas – our walls are pretty sad, and in need of an update, right now! 🙂

This DIY Board Game Table Made Me Want to Dust Off My Cricut

You know that feeling when you see a project and instantly start mentally rearranging your whole weekend to fit it in? That was me with The Carpenter’s Daughter’s DIY Board Game Table tutorial. I mean, it’s so good. Functional, stylish, and honestly—such a conversation starter.

It’s the kind of piece that looks high-end, but she breaks it down step-by-step in a way that makes it totally achievable, even if you’re not a woodworking wizard. And if you’ve got a Cricut machine (like I do, gathering dust in the corner), this is your cue to plug it in and actually use it. She used hers to create the game board top, and it adds such a clean, custom finish.

I never really thought about how handy a built-in game board could be—no more shuffling Monopoly pieces off the kitchen table when it’s time for dinner! It’s perfect for families, game nights with friends, or even just a cool coffee table alternative with a little hidden fun.

What I Love About This Project:

  • It doubles as a gorgeous piece of furniture.

  • You can totally customize the games—checkers, chess, tic-tac-toe, you name it.

  • It’s an awesome way to up your Cricut game (seriously, I’ve been inspired).

  • And let’s be honest—it’s a great excuse to get crafty and competitive.

If you’re looking for a project with style and function, check out the full tutorial here. Fair warning though—you’ll probably end up wanting to make more than one.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to charge my Cricut and pretend I know how to play chess again…
