Tin Can Desk Organizer, quick enough to finish before nap time and an upgrade that feels far pricier than it was

A boy’s desk collects pens, chargers and small unidentifiable objects at an alarming rate. Tin cans covered and grouped together give all of it somewhere to live, and they are rugged enough to survive actual use. I like that it costs nothing. My tutorial is here.

Sugar Skull Wall Art, cheap to pull off with dollar store finds and proof a small change makes a real difference

An egg tray becomes a bold sugar skull, which is exactly the kind of thing a teenager will actually agree to hang on his wall. It has real edge to it and it started life in the recycling. I love a project with that gap between input and output. Here is how I made mine.

DIY Roman Shades, forgiving even if a step turns out a little crooked and warmth that a plain corner was missing

I always preferred roman shades to blinds or curtains and assumed I could never afford them. It turns out I could just make them. Pick a bold solid or a graphic print and they anchor the whole room. Here is exactly how I did mine.

28. Photo Frame Magnets

Sueeye
Batik Canvas Art, a bedroom accent idea, easy to scale up for a whole batch and a detail guests always ask about

Batik uses acrylic and glue to get that traditional textile look, and it is far more accessible than it sounds. The finished canvas has serious visual impact for very basic supplies. I found it a lovely way into textile art. My tutorial is waiting.
