There have been some fantastics DIY’s floating around the web lately. When I first saw this chandelier DIY on Little Green Notebook, I quickly thought of a few clients that would totally embrace this! It’s perfectly modern and can be placed as a transitional piece in most spaces. It actually comes from the folks at One Kings Lane. Great job!

Design Milk teamed up with Sherwin Williams to create this beauty. It’s inspired by a weaving art piece. The color palette is just perfect! See the entire DIY here.

When I started re-doing my office, I had a plan of action for my baroque mirror. I almost gave it away, just because I’m a little over this trend. But after seeing Martha Stewart’s new project paints, I knew that this mirror needed a little copper pick me up. I used the metallic glaze in copper penny and I love the result! It’s super pretty yet a little edgy and it fits in with my office design perfectly! I’m also a huge fan of Martha Stewart Project Paints. They come in 10 oz. jars, which is great because you’re not waisting a bunch of paint. You can choose between crackle, glitter, metallic glaze, metallic, textured metallic and terra cotta and they all come in a variety of colors. I’m pretty sure that I need to try glitter next!

So if you have a mirror or a frame that needs a little re-do, try this! You’ll love it.

I have seen alot of cool products and designs throughout the years, so at times I feel unimpressed with average.  This product reminds me of why I love design SO much because it so far above average!  I introduce you to the Twist Original DIY Mattress Design.  Most of us know that all natural mattresses can be very expensive, so why not make your own?!  Each kit contains a set of modular, 100% cotton canvas covers you put together to create a mattress.  Detailed instructions are included and you will not need any special tools or skills to construct your mattress, simply fill your covers, tie them shut and twist them together.

There are two types of DIY mattress kits.  One is a set of pre-sewn covers (the Twist Original) that you simply fill with any natural material you wish and twist together into a mattress.  The second design, the Twist Easy Kit, is less showy, more economical and easier to construct.  Both are too be filled with all natural buckwheat hulls.

You must head over to Open Your Eyes Bedding and check this all out for yourself!

Also, another great DIY for small spaces or large spaces alike is the Dorm tape picture frame seen on Design* Sponge.  Perfect for rentals, dorm rooms and any other temporary space.

This wooden ladder has become a multifunctional piece.  It is storing magazines, a blanket and even a clip on light.  What a great space solution for any room!
