Using wrapping paper or wallpaper to make art is something I've done. I have wallpaper I bought years and years ago that is great for covering storage boxes. My best use was cutting down detergent boxes into magazine boxes and covering them. I have them on all our bookshelves everywhere for not just magazines but brochures, maps, recipe booklets and such. Also, I covered the inside back of two small cheap bookcases with pretty wallpaper and they look much better. 😊

After viewing and commenting, I found a beautiful tall blue slim vase in a spare bedroom, added an ikea eucalyptus stem which was in my storage, and put them on my bedroom dresser on top of a few books from my home office and voila, the perfect decor. Thanks for the inspiration.

A Helpful Hint! We bought several sizes of Furniture Sliders & put them under our Heavier pieces of Furniture! That way when we get ready to Clean or Rearrange Furniture we're not Struggling with Moving them! This is especially helpful on Hardwood Floors, bc Heavier pieces could scratch the floors when scooting them around! 🤔💡 Love your Videos!

Definitely do NOT underestimate Facebook market place! I gave away a completely perfect 3 piece navy blue LEATHER couch set for FREE bc I needed it gone before my new stuff arrived.. I've gotten everything from expensive armoire closets to simple storage bins.. and if your willing to do a little (paint or recover items) a little will go a long way... Some beat up dining chairs then spray painted and few yards of material will amaze you.

I’ve felt so overwhelmed thinking how on earth will I get my house feeling like a home? Thank you so much for sharing these tips. Seeing how much you are able to do with available resources inspired some decorating thoughts in me. I can’t wait to begin to beautify my family’s little space .

I love this episode as it’s encouraging those stuck in a home decor rut to think outside the box. I’m looking forward to seeing more thrifting trips from you. It would be surprising how much of my home decor is second hand. Pottery, crystal, coffee table books, and furniture doesn’t have to come from a high end store to be tasteful and timeless!

I just spray painted 10 door knob sets satin nickel (they were brass and icky) and it only cost $7! Lol. That’s a lot cheaper than replacing them! And they look lovely. ☺️ I did that wrapping paper in a picture frame for Christmas last year. I already had the paper and paid $5 for frames at Dollar tree. Gift bags are good for this too. I also enjoy using nature to decorate! It’s completely free…love that idea!! Your videos are amazing! Ty

In the US you can join a Buy Nothing group or local Freecycle. Craigslist also has a freebies section. Framing wrapping paper is nice and can also be used as a background for something else like a cut out initial or a shell. I've made a shadow box out of an old frame and cardboard from a cereal box. Old paint can also be mixed together to get new colors and more paint to work with. I've also painted matting to freshen it up or coordinate with the art in the frame or just the colors of the room. Made pillow covers and cafe curtains out of a dress I could no longer wear.

Loved these tips. I have two questions for you- 1. How do you personally determine if you want to use/not use a frame mat for a photo? 2. I spray painted closet knobs and the paint has come off. Do you think that I didn't rough up the surface enough or needed a sealer?
