Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
These were originally designed to be Valentine’s Day treats but as a book lover throughout the year they would be the perfect treat for all sorts of events and gift treats-maybe even to leave in my Little Free Library for my visitors? Pop on over to the blog Cast Iron Maiden for the free downloadable mini book printable and directions on how to make mini book treats. Hershey’s Nuggets never looked so cute in their upcycled new look!
Looking to add some rustic charm to your space without breaking the bank? Donna from Funky Junk Interiors has shared a brilliant DIY hack that turns a standard IKEA storage shelf into a stunning farmhouse-style piece.
Donna started with the basic IKEA HENJNE shelving unit, which is functional but lacks character. To infuse it with rustic appeal, she stained the wood to deepen its tone and added vintage baskets and a stenciled crate labeled “Pure Cane Sugar” for a nostalgic touch. This clever combination not only enhanced the shelf’s aesthetic but also increased its storage capacity, making it both beautiful and practical.?
This project is a perfect example of how a little creativity can transform everyday furniture into something special. By incorporating vintage elements and a touch of DIY flair, Donna elevated a simple storage unit into a statement piece that complements various interior styles, from farmhouse to industrial.?
If you’re looking for an easy and affordable way to upgrade your home decor, this IKEA hack is a fantastic option. With just a few materials and some elbow grease, you can create a unique piece that adds character and functionality to your space.?
