Make Your Own Farmhouse Light for Less

Susan from Homeroad threaded an inexpensive hanging light from Home Depot through a ceiling fan pole to create her own farmhouse light. The original stainless steel finish was a bit too shiny for Susan’s taste so she painted it a rich oil-rubbed bronze, giving it just the older, more vintage look she was after. Susan loves it so much she’s now on the prowl for more items in need of an oil-rubbed bronze makeover!

Reclaimed Wood and Metal Wall Shelves

Leslie of Loving What We Live was inspired by a friend’s beautiful Restoration Hardware reclaimed wood shelves to create some of her own. By DIYing the shelves, Leslie not only saved money but also was able to custom match the stain to other furniture in her home. The distressed wood shelves are now a great place to display family photos and other treasures.
