1.  Build a Blanket Ladder

Blanket ladders are one of the hottest trends in DIY home décor. They are simple to make and there is just something rustic and unique about the look. Some blanket ladders are made so that the ladder steps can also be used as shelves, which is a pretty cool look.

You can make these pretty easily. In fact, this is a DIY project that won’t even require expensive tools to complete. You can just snatch up your top rated bow saws (or buy one if you don’t have on yet!)

You can use a table saw or circular saw if you have one as well. This project is simple and doesn’t take a lot of effort or materials to complete. You can make it to whatever sizes you want and then you can use this DIY home decoration however you like!

2.  Side Tables

Next up, prepare to be amazed! Some simple décor that can quickly be used to bring a room together is side tables. Side tables are simple but effective. They can bring an entire room together or fill up an awkward space.

Making a side table is another fairly simple DIY home decoration project. It doesn’t take a ton of effort or materials and you can make the design however you want it to. Side tables can be made in different styles and methods.

Side tables can be built with or without drawers and they can be made elegant or simple. This is incredibly versatile and a great way to spruce up a room.

3.  Framework

Another DIY project that many of us take for granted is frames. This is regarding frames for pictures, art work, and any other possible item you could frame. This is an awesome way to bring some visual appeal to a space.

We all hang things on the walls, whether it is family pictures, artwork, or some other form of decoration. Frames will never go out of style and they are something that can easily be DIY. Frames are yet another DIY project that can be as simple or as fancy as you want them to be.

You can use your own style to make these and they are simple projects. You can make an entire wall of framed piece work and it would totally be the best visual point in your home.

Hang those family pictures you’ve been letting pile up or gather up some of your favorite artwork and get to framing and hanging already!

4.  Scroll Work Mirror

What better way to decorate your walls than with an elegant project that takes your loving dedication to complete? A scroll work mirror or clock will look like you spent a ton of money but all it takes is your time and focus.

These settings can be fabulous. You can do any type of fancy scroll work with curls and loops or floral designs. You can even use something else entirely. Get your creative juices flowing and add a touch of elegance to the space.

In this case, you will probably need a scroll saw and a little bit of a plan to really get the best results. Much like the other projects we are sharing, you can keep this simple or you can get fancy. It’s really up to your preferences and tastes.

5.  Shelves, Shelves, Shelves

Shelves are one of the easiest DIY home decorations you can possibly use and they are so awesome. You can make small shelves, single shelves, large shelves, or fancy shelves.

Shelves are SO versatile and they work great in absolutely any room of your house. Need a good place to store some knick-knacks? Build some shelves! Need a place to store your dishes for display but don’t want a hutch cabinet? Build some shelves!

These are just a couple basic shelve options but what you really should know is that your options are endless. You can make shelves for anything and in any size and your shelves can be simple pieces of wood or you can make ornate cuts if you like as well.

6.  Get Your Crafty On

Finally, let’s get crafty! Stop thinking about building or creating with wood alone and consider how you can DIY decorate your home using crafty items. For example, you can make your own curtains using the fabric of your choice and really personalize or update your space.

Try refurnishing your arm chair with a new material. This is a fairly simple process if you’re willing to do it right and it’s amazing how this small change can really perfect the look of a room or décor model.

Then, there are other minor things you can do as well. Try crocheting coasters or making paper poms that you can hang for décor throughout the home. You can decorate a traditional vase and make it a center focal point of décor.

Getting crafty is a very broad category but if you have any level of creativity, you can probably gaze at your room and come up with a few simple ideas.

Conclusion

DIY decorations for your home in 2021 can range from wooden projects to fabric projects and everything in between. Grab your ideas and your creative fingers and start making a list of decoration ideas you want to use in your home.
