7 DIY Projects To Knock Out In Your Home

While DIY Projects on TV look amazing, some of these renovations can sometimes be the toughest things ever. Houselogic.com has gathered 7 knock-out projects that are beautiful you-can-do-it inspirations for easy DIY projects.

  1. Pinterest-Worthy Window Seat - If you are looking to seat a houseful of guests without dragging chairs all over the place, try building a beautiful window seat and as a bonus, there’s storage underneath for stashing lots of stuff out of sight.
  2. Miracle Makeover With Just Paint, Stain (and Patience) - It’s really a miracle what paint, sanding, and stain can do. Lighter shades on the walls, trims, and floor reflect natural light, making the space so much brighter.
  3. Instant Open Floor Plan - Kitchens can be dark and cramped so try removing a set of overhead cabinets that are blocking light and your view to the dining room.
  4. Brighter Bedroom With Paint and Wood - By painting the walls a lighter color and replacing the window treatments with white/light drapes you are pulling more sunlight into the room. Also, if you are looking for a boost behind your bed, try adding reclaimed wood with an adhesive backing to create a beautiful accent wall.
  5. An Easy-Peasy Backyard Patio - Dirt is ugly and a pain when it turns into mud when it rains. Try covering the dirt with a paver patio and patio stones/bricks/river rock to outline your patio.
  6. Fancy Wall Molding for a Bargain Price - Wall molding makes a room look custom. As a cheaper option try adding thinner “chair rail molding” directly on the wall, and paint everything white, including the wall to get that rich look of molding.
  7. A Space-Saving Workbench - If you have a small space and want a space saving workbench, attach a solid wood door mounted on door hinges to the wall so you can fold it flat against the wall when you’re not using it.           *Courtesy of Houselogic.com
