Think of this DIY wall shelf and indoor hanging garden system as the lo-tech, low cost version of the Ambius indoor vertical garden. The customizable shelving system is adjustable with "stack-able" shelving units, notched and locked together with an interlocking design. But it's really the hanging garden which sets this apart from other shelving units...

Who would have thought that there are not one, but (at least) two custom made John Deere tractor bunk beds in the world? Billy saw the bunks that Jennifer of The Rucker Rendezvous made when we wrote about them last summer and was inspired to try his hand at it for his grandkids.

When Emma's local Goodwill held a competition for upcycling, she knew it was the perfect opportunity to make her two-year-old son the bookshelf he'd been needing.

If you're into the mountain trend, you're going to love this quick and crafty DIY project. Cyrielle of Carnets Parisiens lives in Paris, but dreams of a remote mountain cottage. For the time being she's settled for this lovely mountain-inspired shelf. If you've got some spare lumber and know how to use a jigsaw, this project is for you.

When designed well this style can be successful, but the flip-side can be bland and lacking in character. Fortunately, adding detail is always possible and there's a bevy of options.

Spring has sprung (or so the calendar says), which makes it the perfect time to head outdoors and tackle those projects you've been planning all winter. My list is long — filled with landscaping and gardening projects galore — and now I can add another to my list: a modern dog abode to shelter my four-legged kids from the hot summer sun. Here are five DIY doghouses that can easily be modified to fit your own needs.

Children have the oft-forgotten innate ability to see beyond "what is" into the realm of "what could be". A large tree, a hillside, a pile of discarded lumber...all these are the raw materials for architects, engineers, and explorers in the making. Somewhere down the line a vast majority of us adults lose this vision and forget the joys of imagining and making. Here are four reminders we all have a slumbering creative waiting to reawaken regardless of age...

Recent college graduates, Clayton & Chaz, were tight on money, but large on outdoor space. By using 95% recycled materials and a lot of sweat equity, they were able to transform their backyard from ho-hum, to shabby chic — with a budget of only $210! More
