Gail from Purple Hues and Me came across a really cute outdoor pillow loaded with colorful flowers. At $49, it may have been out of Gail’s budget but that didn’t mean she couldn’t recreate it and get a similar look for less. Gail says, “I wanted to make a no-sew whimsical flower pillow anyone could do just by using fabric, ribbon, and glue. The end result is truly stunning, and the flowers are quite easy to make after some practice.”

Amy from Delineate Your Dwelling wanted to add some bright color to her office and fell in love with West Elm’s Geo Print. She was able to replicate the artwork for only $12 by simply sketching the design onto a canvas with loose, doodle-like motions. I can’t think of a more fun design to pep up a work space!

This Pottery Barn-inspired media console build couldn’t have come a moment too soon for Katie at Addicted 2 DIY! It was love at first sight when she laid eyes on Pottery Barn’s Benchwright TV Stand and she’d been wanting to build it for over a year. Ana White facilitated the process with her free project plans, and Katie and her hubs can finally replace their current folding table with tablecloth (aka the “high-tech redneck” media stand) with this beauty!

When deciding on curtains rods for her son’s bedroom, Carrie from Making Lemonade had a choice to make – drive to the mall and purchase West Elm’s industrial curtain rods or drive to Home Depot, make her own, and save $100. “Guess which idea won?” she asks. DIY, of course! Carrie assures that it’s easier than you think, especially since she’s got your shopping list ready!

I know I had some of you at the words no sew. If sewing just isn’t your thing, follow Ann’s lead from On Sutton Place and take advantage of the cheap ready-made pillow covers sold at stores like IKEA and Hobby Lobby. Ann started off with a $5 cover and simply ironed on a plethora of hearts for create this DIY Valentine’s pillow. How easy is it? Ann says, “Seriously…if you can cut out hearts and iron, you are golden.”
