Living Room

The DIY coffee table saved tons of money.

The DIY shelves are so good.

Scrapping the crumbling plaster walls revealed gorgeous vintage brick.

And it only cost about $250!

Now, it’s a groovy space for hosting friends.

Smart design choices and budget-savvy shopping gave this blank space a charming new look that totally fits the home’s 1941 roots.

The “after” is bright, airy, and art-filled.

An IKEA ELVARI was the perfect find here.

There's no such thing as too much color.

The homeowners wanted to add toy storage to their living room without turning it into a full-on playroom.

The green paint inspired the rest of the studio’s design.

The gallery wall is personality-packed.

Goodbye, red carpeting.

Before, this homeowner avoided including this wall in any photographs. Now, it’s ready for its close-up!

This once-blank space is now a collector’s dream.

The project only took a couple of hours to complete.

Plus, the “after” is filled with secondhand finds.

“The goal was to create a warmer, more layered space,” the homeowner says.

Here’s how I used color and pattern to make the room feel distinct.

The after is a total breath of fresh air.

And the wavy DIY headboard is a must-see!

A new wall color is never a bad idea.

Major renovations? We don’t know her.
