I have a secret! This is FAUX greenery... and it's so good I could NOT wait until Christmas to show you. ad It's so real that my iphone wanted to identify it as a real plant when I took a photo of it! These real touch Norfolk Pine stems and garland from @afloral have the look of real pine - from the foliage to the stems - but without the shedding and watering needed. They will last me year after year (yay for sustainable decor!) and are absolutely worth the investment! I highly recommend you get your hands on these NOW before they sell out for Christmas. afloral afloralnorfolk christmasdecor LTKhome LTKSeasonal LTKStyleTip LTKHome LTKVideo

Want to know why paper decor is awesome?

1 Inexpensive. I mean who doesn’t love that?!
2 Easy to store. Packs flat or can even be recycled.
3 Is totally charming! Sometimes the simple things are the most charming

Christmas can be sparkly and magical from paper trees to paper Christmas tree skirt to paper snowflakes to paper decor!

p.s. that paper tree skirt might be my favorite this year! Definitely sturdy enough to last for a few years too!

The path through DIY is rarely straight but it doesn’t mean you need a complete work shop or all the know how. DIY can be installation by something pre-built and making it work for you and your situation.

My little mudroom bench was all about pivoting from the start! But the end result 👏🏼delivered!👏🏼 There was some “from scratch” building, some hacking, some custom purchased (please someone else build it for me!) elements, and some creativity to put it together.

Stick around for more DIY ideas that anyone can do and start figuring out ways to make your house work FOR you. Comment BENCH for my source list!

Do you love an easy DIY?

Static cling window film is perfect for adding some privacy while preserving natural light. I used Artscape, but there’s tons of options out there and Etsy is a great place to look too.

Here’s the other supplies:
➡️ spray bottle
➡️dish soap
➡️ squeegee
➡️box knife

I also grabbed a cutting board and a t-square but you could use a ruler or other straight edge too.

I created a template since I was making the same size of each window. Use a couple drops of dish soap in your spray bottle. Spray the glass (make sure it’s super clean first), peel off the backing, and apply the smooth side to the glass. It’s completely reposition-able and removable - with no damage or residue. I love that it’s renter friendly or a permanent solution!

To sum it up, I find my frames all over the place, but here’s my main sources:

*Amazon - not all frames are created equal, but I’ve found a couple of good shops that sell affordable, quality frames
*Target - often includes a mat, which is a bonus!
*Hobby Lobby or Michael’s - the variety is excellent, but be picky and look for the solid wood ones
*Ikea - good for sleek and modern frames or poster art
*Thrifted or clearance stores - don’t sleep on this! I always check thrift stores or clearance stores (TJ Maxx, Home Goods, Ross, etc) for frames. Even if it’s the ugliest frame, you can paint it or Rub ‘n Buff!

Would you even have guessed something like POLE WRAP could look so amazing?! Even I was a bit surprised at step back and see how much character it added. Something so simple added so much. And that’s why I love DIY.

Would you have guessed that it only took 3 elements (and a few pretty things) to make this power room stand out?

She might be small but she is elegant! Sources for my DIY friendly powder room found here!

Would you believe that this elegance started here and only took THREE DIY elements to transform it?

It only took 3 DIYs(dare I say beginner friendly AND weekend friendly) to completely transform this boring powder room into something that screams elegance.

I have more tips on all three of these DIYs posted as reels just a few back. Be sure to check those out because all of these are ideas that can be applied to any room transformation.

Now, I’ll grant you that we had the major elements in place - floor, sink, light fixture. (All of which were also DIY’d a couple of years ago for what it’s worth) BUT. It doesn’t have to be super complicated or involve building lots of things or be crazy expensive to add upgrades to your home. Every bit of this was accomplished on a budget and by paying attention to the little details.
