Just because we’re spending more time indoors doesn’t mean we can’t tap into our creative side and produce something lovely. Here are some delightful and inspiring DIY ideas to keep you engaged and uplifted during this time.
Self-Made Scented Wax Lights
Melt down some old wax and add your favorite oils to make your very own scented wax lights. Their gentle scents are my reward when I’m working on a project.
Fragmented Cloth Garland
Use the bits of cloth that are left over to create a delightful garland for your place. After putting mine up in the breakfast nook, it feels like sunshine in the morning!
Twisted Cord Plant Holders
Just a bit of cord and a few knots is all you need to create cool twisted cord plant holders. My plants are hanging pretty in the sun thanks to these!
