When it comes to aesthetic ability, I have always believed I possess it, as I can easily discern the beauty or ugliness of two objects and even articulate the subtle differences. However, after viewing these DIY projects, I realized that perhaps I lack the ability to truly appreciate aesthetics (or maybe I have the aesthetic sense but not the skill). Fortunately, these projects are simple enough that I can follow them without much thought.
1. Simple Upgrade of a 27 Yuan Stool
4. Artistic Display in the Entrance Hall
Tired of seeing the same old entrance hall paintings, some people want to be different. To be honest, I’ve had this thought too, but I couldn’t come up with any more innovative ideas. After seeing this entrance hall flower arrangement plan from a fellow homeowner, I was stunned by its beauty. With the flowers hanging on the wall and the illumination of the spotlight, it looks high-class, unique, and artistic.
5. Wooden Board Art Painting
Looking at such an art painting, do you have the same feeling as I do? It looks expensive, extremely beautiful, and stunning. Yet, this painting was made by a fellow homeowner. The back of the whale is made of real wood veneer, and the belly is made of wooden cores.
6. Shell Painting
After decorating your own home, referring to others’ successful cases for soft decoration is one thing. But if you want to stand out, you need something unique. Well, some homeowners have come up with the idea of making decorative paintings with shells. Firstly, the cost is very low, and the operation is simple. Anyone can do it. Secondly, something made by your own hands is very meaningful. The key is that if you have good taste, you can sell such a finished painting for 600 yuan each, which can bring you quite a lot of income.
7. Toast Clock
Putting a toast clock at home makes it look so cute that you might want to take a bite. Yes, this toast clock was also DIYed by a food-loving homeowner. The specific production process is as follows: Take a piece of cardboard with decent hardness and draw the shape of a toast on it. Then roll white clay into strips to outline the puffed toast edges. If there isn’t enough clay, you can first fill it with some magazine paper and then edge it with clay. After the clay is completely dry, use glue and a small amount of shredded paper to create the texture of the bread in the middle of the toast. After both the inside and outside are completely dry, paint it with beige paint and add clock hands. After such a series of processes, what you get is not only a clock but also a super excellent soft decoration. This method is also suitable for children’s handicraft homework. Taking it to kindergarten will surely make them the envy of others.
8. Side Table
In recent years, it has become popular to replace the coffee table in the living room with a side table. Those with skillful hands have already been eager to try and have made nice finished products. Prepare an irregularly shaped board, match it with a support rod and a weighted base, and then paint it with your favorite color. The result is full of an Instagrammable style and looks very comfortable.
We have to admit that aesthetics is a very important thing. As long as your aesthetic ability is on point, you can create all kinds of beautiful things.
9. Mirror Sticker Art – Seeing others engage in DIY projects can be quite tempting, making one think of creating their own decorative art at home. Here, mirror sticker art is arranged, serving both as a piece of art and occasionally for a moment of self-admiration. The key is that these mirror sticker artworks are incredibly easy to make, and they have a reflective effect when placed at home, showcasing the actual scenery of one’s own home, which is very ingenious! 10. Magnetic Tile Stool – Leftover decorative tiles from home renovations can be used in more than just conventional ways. They can be embedded in a wooden board, supported by legs, to create a unique and fresh small stool. This is equivalent to bringing a part of the bathroom elements into the living room, creating a visual memory element that has an inexplicable sense of harmony. However, it is not recommended to use it as a seat during the autumn and winter seasons, as it can be cold on the bottom. Nevertheless, it is a good choice for placing flower pots since the tiles are easy to clean.
