We all have a bit of creativity inside us, which means all of us can partake in the DIY craze that seems to be taking over the Internet – no, scratch that, the world.

This creativity and handiness, however, differs from person to person, meaning where one will be able to sow a neat selection of scatter cushions, for example, another will be more adept at building entire living room furniture sets from wooden pallets without so much as breaking a sweat. As they say, variety is the spice of life! 

So, to help you discover your inner artist, we have put together a few DIY projects to make your home more special, and more unique. These little tasks range from very easy to a bit harder, so scroll through our list to see which one(s) seem perfect for you to try out this weekend.

Let’s have some fun!

1. Build an outdoor dining area in your garden.

2. A self-made pegboard can add some structure and organisation to your home office or garage.

3. Leave those dry twigs in the pot and try your hand at this crafty little driftwood tree. Fairy lights will add the necessary sparkle.

4. Crack out that sewing machine and let’s make some fancy new slip-on covers for the scatter cushions.

5. Let’s see how far your origami skills stretch. If you’re quite good, you may even try your hand at a paper lampshade!

7. You can either recycle that heap of plastic bottles in your home, or…

8. No tiled floor? Grab some paint and a few brushes and create your own unique patterns.
