By Karina Frost


A lot of people are getting into do it yourself or diy projects these days. There are a lot of fun easy diy projects you can do and use to decorate your home with. Most of these projects you can do with things easily accessible. They are fun and easy but also cheap to do.

You could build a headboard for a bed in no time at all. A quick easy diy project that will not cost you much money at all and it will add a personal touch to any bedroom. All you need is wooden pallets and paint or wood stain. You just choose the color you want to use and paint it outside. Once it has dried you put it up against a wall and put your bed in front of it, then you have your very own headboard you made all by yourself.

Most people have too many cords around the computer and television area that have been plugged into power strips. Here is an easy, cheap and simple way to hide those cords. Take a shoe box and either wrap it in wrapping paper or paint it so that it matches the room you are going to use it in. Cut a hole big enough for the cords to come out of on the ends of the box.

Place your power strip in the box and then pull the cord from the strip out one end of the shoe box and plug it into the wall. Then place the cords through the other end of the box through the hole you previously cut out and plug them into the power strip. Then you simply put the painted or wrapped top back on the box and the power strip is now hidden.

Another great project that would look amazing in the kitchen is a diy cooking utensil holder. Buy a metal rake, not a plastic one and then you remove the handle. Hang the bottom part of the rake on the wall and then you just hang your utensils on the individual prongs of the rake. You can leave it the way it comes or you can paint it to match your kitchen.

A fun kitchen project you could do with your kids is to make holders for your eating utensils. Take food cans and wash them well and let them dry. Once they dry paint them the color of your choice. You can paint them different colors or all the same color. This is why the kids love it because they get to paint it whatever color they want, as long as you approve of course.

You want the inside painted so when someone grabs a utensil they will see the color on the inside too. You want to do separate cans for each utensil. You should do one for your spoons, forks, steak knives and butter knives. Then you can place them on the table and then they will be there every time you need one.

There are a lot of fun and easy projects that are also very inexpensive. These projects can add charm and character to any home just by taking everyday items that would normally find there way to the garbage and just add a personal touch to it.
