If you’ve been watching home renovation TV shows, you’ll know that the fixer-upper farmhouse decor look is very popular these days. And with these easy DIY farmhouse decor projects and ideas, you can add the farmhouse charm to your own home without breaking the bank.

DIY Farmhouse Decor That Won’t Break The Bank

Yes, Chip and Joanna create beautiful, drool-worthy transformations. And you can do it too!

But you don’t need to renovate your entire house or room to give it that overall warm and cozy farmhouse feel. You only need a couple of farmhouse decor elements to achieve the overall style.

I’ve rounded up some of the best easy DIY farmhouse decor ideas I could find. They’re all inexpensive to make and don’t require any special DIY skills. So I really believe anyone can make these!

If you try them out let me know how they turn out for you! And if you don’t have the time to try any of them now, you can always save them to your DIY farmhouse board on Pinterest to try them later.

15 DIY IKEA Hacks To Transform Your Furniture On A Small Budget
If you’re looking to give the furniture and decor in your home a makeover but don’t have the money to buy expensive items, DIY IKEA hacks can be a real lifesaver.

As you probably know, IKEA pieces can sometimes be some of the most affordable furniture you can buy. Unfortunately, they are also some of the most boring and plain looking furniture pieces you can buy.

But what I really love about IKEA items is the various ways you can tweak and hack them into beautiful and expensive looking furniture pieces.

Creative DIY IKEA Hacks You Need To Try

Many of the IKEA hacks you can find online are truly brilliant and creative. Sometimes you’ll end up with items that you won’t believe started out as cheap and simple looking IKEA pieces.

Baby Nursery Decorating Tips

Hope you enjoyed this baby nursery inspiration and got some ideas for decorating your little one’s nursery.

Whether you want a gender neutral nursery, or a nursery with a girl or boy theme, here are some tips to keep in mind.
- Before going out and starting to buy things for your nursery, settle on a color scheme. Choose the base color and then decide on complementary colors you want to see in the nursery. Neutral whites, greys, light pink or blue make for good base colors.
- Think about wall decor. Something fun on the wall can add some color to the room and can help set the tone and style of the nursery. This can be something painted on the wall, or some cute wallpaper. I know I’ve seen some pretty cute wallpapers and decals for nurseries on Etsy.
- Create a focal point in the nursery. A lot of times the focal point is centered around the crib, but you can get creative and also use a center it around a signature piece or something like a window.
- Decorate the ceiling. You can have a lot of fun with a nursery and do things that you wouldn’t normally do in other parts of the house. One great idea is adding glowing stars to the ceiling.
