We all want to have a beautiful home that reflects our personality. But adding your personal touch can be difficult when you’re limited in your choices. However, you can always create your own arts and crafts projects to personalise your home decor. Here are some examples of great craft ideas that will enhance any room.
Personalised Wall Canvas

Although you may not fancy yourself as a painter, you can always decorate a wall canvas, even if you have limited skills. You can go on a site like Raaaft and purchase blank wall canvases in a variety of sizes. You could write favourite quotes, expressions, or even song lyrics on the canvas.
If you’re scared you’re going to make a mistake, use a pencil to write out the sayings before going over it in a permanent paint. You could also use stencils; you can find tons of great stencils online and they’re very easy to apply in most cases. Or you could create your own. You can also get creative and finish your stencils with glitter if you really want them to stand out.
Mosaic CD Mirror

If you want to decorate a teenager’s room or have any space that needs a little more light, why not put some of your old CDs to good use? Take a mirror and place broken CDs around the frame. Break up the CDs safely and glue them to the frame with the reflective side facing out. You can use different types of CDs in order to get different colours. The end result will look incredible and it’s a fun project to do as well.
Painted Flower Pots
If you have a green thumb and want to show it off, why not spruce up some simple flower pots and use them in your house? All you need is a little bit of paint and the pots. To give your home a luxury look, choose a gold paint for a high-class touch. You can also paint a fun design or stencil on the pot to match your sense of style. And you can use them in pretty much any room in your home.
Paint Your Dishware
Did you always wish you had fancy dishware, but couldn’t afford to purchase high end pieces? Well, why not create your own? Ceramic paint and sharpies are all that you need to transform white dishes into unique showpieces. Make sure to only apply the designs to the outside of the dishes so it won’t be in contact with the food. If you want to add permanent designs to dishes however, you’ll need access to a kiln, which is always feasible. Any pieces that have patterns on the inside can still be used for jewellery storage or other decorative functions.
These are a just few simple ways to incorporate fun arts and crafts into your home. Not only will every space look great, but it will also allow each of your rooms to tell a story.
