Therefore, the best option would be to make home decorations with your own hands, the creation of which will also be a fun activity for you and even for your children.

It is possible to complement and refresh the interior of any room with the help of exclusive flower pots, and for this you don’t have to run to the stores, you just have to look for old pots that are lying around idle.

Another interesting option is to cover old flower pots with beads, beads, sequins or appliques, which are finally varnished.

The knitted clothes with which they are wrapped will bring originality to the pots. To do this, you don’t have to start learning knitting yourself; just choose an old knitted sweater or a boring scarf and, using scissors and a needle and thread, create a new fashionable garment for flower pot.

It’s a little more difficult to make a colored mosaic for pots, but the result will be so impressive that you won’t regret the time spent. So, to decorate with mosaics you will need the following material:

• colored glass, pebbles or pebbles;
• “hot” glue (PVA is also possible);
• tile grout;
• brush.

In order not only to paste over the pot, but also to lay out a drawing, you should prepare glass pieces of several colors. Initially, the desired design is laid out on paper and only then transferred to the surface. First, glue the image and only then process the rest of the flower pot.

After the entire pot is decorated with glass, tile grout is applied on top. If at this moment some pieces of glass fall off, it’s okay: in a day, when the pot has dried, you can glue back the fallen elements.

After treating the pot with grout, you need to wait 15-20 minutes and use a damp rag to wipe it off the glass. The grout is reapplied after a day and also washed with a rag. After another 24 hours, the product is finally coated with varnish - and original decoration, what you created is ready.

No one else will have cushions like these again.

When there is a sofa in the living room, it’s just furniture, but if you decorate it with a couple of cute pillows, the room immediately feels cozy and warm.

Advice! To decorate pillows, you can embroider a pillowcase yourself, and not just with threads, but using beads, ruffles or other elements.

It’s easy to sew sofa cushions yourself. If you don’t have enough time for this, you can buy a couple of inexpensive small pillows in the store and, using your imagination, create a lovely decoration for your home from them, inspired by some suitable photo from the Internet.

It’s easy to sew sofa cushions yourself

For greater convenience, it is better to make appliqués not on the pillow itself, but on top of the pillowcase, which can be removed and washed or changed. And there are many options here. You can prepare the applique yourself and sew it on. Or use an iron to glue a finished purchased decorative element - this will not be difficult at all. The material for the pillowcase can be silk, velvet or any other fabric that matches the interior of the room.

Modern sofa cushions don't have to be square shape- you can make them round, like little animals or in the form of letters, for example. If you still decide to sew a pillow yourself, you can use scraps of different fabrics rather than a uniform fabric. For padding, it is better to choose hypoallergenic material.

DIY decorated vases

Everyone knows perfectly well that in stores you can choose a vase to suit every taste, color and size, but it is not always possible to spend the amount written on the price tag for the vessel you like. And sometimes you just want to decorate your home with something original and exclusive.

Advice! An easy and excellent solution would be to use glass bottle any original form.

Having first removed the label, remove any remaining glue from the bottle, then place a bouquet of dried flowers in the bottle. And finally, the entire composition is sprayed with spray paint of silver or golden color, or any other color - the main thing is that the craft looks harmonious with the room decor.

You can create an original vase decor with your own hands from paper, and since it is also simple, feel free to involve your child in this exciting activity- ultimately a decoration for the home and good mood guaranteed. For such a vase you will need:

• glass bottle, glass or jar;
• corrugated paper different shades(or you can use pieces of pages from a fashion magazine);
• PVA glue;
• small scissors.

The selected paper should be cut into uneven pieces of different sizes. Apply glue to the prepared bottle and apply pieces of paper one by one in a chaotic manner. Treat the entire bottle this way. Next, when the first layer is pasted, apply glue on top again and add more pieces of paper. We do this until the entire surface is covered. At the end, we treat the craft with glue again and wait until it dries. If you have acrylic varnish in your house, you can varnish the product, but even without this coating the vase will look great and will become another home decoration made with your own hands from scrap materials.

We complement the interior with a tree made from coffee beans

The coffee tree will not only decorate the rooms, but also fill them with a magical aroma. Made with your own hands, this original and beautiful tree will be an excellent present for any occasion, as well as a cute decoration for your home.

To make a tree from coffee, you should prepare the following material:

• large coffee beans;
• plastic ball;
• brown paint;
• glue;
• gypsum;
• small flower pot;
• Styrofoam.

The coffee tree will not only decorate the rooms, but also fill them with a magical aroma

First of all, we color the ball in Brown color, so the original shade will not appear from under the grains glued on top. After the paint has dried, we pierce a hole in the ball into which the tree trunk will go, and begin to cover it with grains.

For the trunk, you can use any stick or branch, which will be wrapped with rope, ribbons or anything else you wish. We insert the barrel into the hole made in the ball until the end, and we also glue coffee beans around it for better fixation.

Before securing the tree in a pot, you should wrap a piece of wire around the base of the trunk. Finished tree put it in a pot and fill it with polystyrene foam, then dissolve the gypsum in water and pour it into the pot. When everything is dry, the craft is ready. If you want, you can decorate it further.

Texture painting of walls

Texture painting of walls is used to give them relief and create a bright accent in the interior. When carrying out work it is possible to use various technologies, with which you can transform any room according to your taste.

When using texture painting technology, the surface does not need to be leveled, thus replacing a certain section of the wall is possible at any stage.

Below are practical tips that will help you quickly and efficiently decorate your walls, while getting an excellent result.

Preparatory work

To get the best result, before starting work, the walls are plastered in one layer, good are being cleared, then covered with paint on an emulsion basis. Texture paint applied to the surface in three ways.

• The wet method is to use fabric.
• Dry method - using a brush.
• And the last method is the rolling technology of “rolling” textured fabric along the wall or ceiling in the same direction.

Texture painting technology:

1. To begin with, the walls are cleaned of old paint, all cracks are sealed, the putty area is sanded, after which the surface is coated with a special primer.
2. Next, to create a tint, a base coat of paint is applied. Typically used for this acrylic paint in light colors (light gray, beige or white). The paint is applied with a regular roller, which can be purchased at any hardware store.
3. After application, you need to wait for the paint to set and only then begin to create painterly textures.
4. The glaze is applied to the wall using a brush, pressing the ends of the bristles into the fresh coating, so that a clear structural mark remains on the surface. To ensure that the deep pattern is not blurred, it is recommended to clean the bristles of the brush as often as possible.
5. Depending on preferences, the brush can be replaced with fabric, the fibrous structure of which will change the texture of the wall, giving it an interesting and unpredictable pattern. Particular attention should be paid to the corners; they must be perfectly even. For joint finishing it is best to use small brushes.
6. After the glaze has completely dried, it is necessary to apply several layers of varnish or cover the surface with a transparent glaze without texturing it. It is recommended that two people work together to process a strip from floor to ceiling in one step.

Carrying out this type of work is possible even for amateurs, but to achieve great result it will take persistence and patience.

Wall photo gallery

Decorating one of the walls with photographs brings a feeling of family unity into the interior, creates a special mood, awakening the kindest and brightest feelings.

These can be large portraits, genre scenes or ordinary shots captured from Everyday life. A collage looks great, allowing you to fit many images into it. If desired, you can make it thematic, dedicating it to a significant event, anniversary date or one of the family members.

Volumetric photographs are an elegant addition to a modern interior

Photos in frames different sizes and shapes give the interior a modern dynamism. For example, what makes a space more conservative and static is decorating the wall with rectangular frames, which are arranged strictly horizontally in one or several lines. What unites this composition into a single whole is the color shade of the frames.

You can move away from the usual way of placing photographs by decorating the wall with a stylized image of a trunk, successfully placing portraits of household members on its branches, creating a whole family tree.

Photographs that are not framed, but pasted onto thick cardboard in rich colors that echo the color motifs of other items will help add sophistication and uniqueness to the interior. They are fixed on stretched cords, fishing line, chains.

Will appear emphasized and romantic wise quotes, important wishes, monograms written on high quality thick paper elegant font and framed with a gilded frame. They are placed next to photographs or on an adjacent wall, thus creating a space permeated with rhythm.

Important! If the wall area is small, it is not at all necessary to create a large composition. You can place one photo on a narrow glass shelf, highlighting it with beautiful lighting.
