DIY Decor Round-Up

Here we go for another round-up of some of the cool and unique DIY decor sprinkled around the web. First, from Apartment Therapy, I love this His & Hers Pillowcase tutorial. A nice nod to vintage personalized linens and a fun way to make sure you get your full side of the bed.

Here is a collection of DIY ideas from ICFF. I particularly enjoy this lantern made from an old apple juice container and sweater sleeve.

I appreciate any original idea of how to display a collection of polaroids, photographs, and inspiring images. This is a modern display created with a wire and metal clips. Clean, crisp and totally adjustable.

Design Sponge provides this handy
Tea shelf idea keeps all you need to prepare your tea in one spot. A lovely and simple design that creates a little tea niche.

Wallpaper stationery set is a great way to use vintage wallpaper. If you rent, you can't put something so permanent on your walls, so this is a great alternative. Hand-written thank you notes and letters are so classy, and are sadly less and less likely in this age of e-mail and e-cards. Now we can make our own and bring back this personalized way of communication.

Over at Crafty Nest, I saw some cool DIY ideas like this Ugly Mirror turned bulletin board. This is an awesome way to re-use an old piece, to give a fresh look to an old piece. All it requires is a fresh coat of paint and cork and you are good to go. Check out the tutorial and let me know how it turns out!

By now everyone knows plastic bags are SO 2000. Decorate your own canvas or hemp tote bags following this tutorial. My recommendation for the best place to get totes made from recycled and sustainable materials is EcoBags. And one last re-purposed idea from Crafty Nest, this cupboard door as a serving tray.
