Fashion in a modern interior is aimed at uniqueness of style. Each designer brings a touch of originality to his creation. But the services of professionals are not accessible to everyone: for some it is a big financial cost, for others it is a momentary burst of inspiration, for others it is a way to spend free time creating something new, your own. All of these people are united by one thing - the desire to create interesting ideas for the home with their own hands.
No wonder that currently there is a boom in handmade products, their price far exceeds the cost of factory goods. After all, the point is not even that the cost of such a thing can tend to zero, but that each piece contains a piece of the soul of the manufacturer, creator, it is original and individual.
Today, the emphasis is on environmental friendliness, saving the planet, and the reuse of resources: houses are made from freight containers, garbage is sorted into categories, old wood is recycled to produce new furniture. Maybe you throw away the right thing, which you can give a second life and realize a brilliant idea with your own hands at home.
Let's call it all modern concepts
English-speaking people have the term DIY (do it yourself), translated as "do it yourself" or "do it yourself." The well-known Wikipedia site defines this concept as “a type of activity that includes the independent manufacture, repair, improvement of equipment, furniture, clothing, equipment and other consumer goods”. That is, all the do-it-yourself ideas for the home, for yourself and others that you have embodied in reality, will apply to this definition. Also for a simple search for creating new ideas on the Internet, you can use this abbreviation.
Room Zoning
It is not necessary to use things for their intended purpose, you can always come up with a new function for the long-forgotten, it would seem, garbage. Wholesalers of fruits and vegetables know the pallets well. They are substituted under boxes with products. It would seem that what could be common with the interior? It turns out that you can implement a custom idea with your own hands. For a house where there are few separate rooms, use all kinds of partitions for zoning the space.
You can "refine" the appearance of the pallet, for example, by painting it in a color suitable for the interior. Or, imagining himself Malevich, create a work of art by painting boards. In addition to the pallet, you can use any objects as a partition, leaving them in their original form or decorating: it can be part of the fence, doors or door frames, window frames, wooden racks, draped pieces of fittings ...
In any case, you can always find a suitable option, using your imagination and the Internet.
Stop clinging to shoes
Whether it's a house or an apartment, the first room you get into is the entrance hall. Not the fact that its area allows you to arrange dances. A budget apartment means that there will be nowhere to turn around. Therefore, one of the main tasks is to properly organize the space and places for storing things and shoes.
You do not have to be a great carpenter to assemble a similar chest of drawers. Naturally, furniture stores offer a wide range of galoshes. But there is a significant nuance: the dimensions of the product do not always fit into the desired angle, especially when every square centimeter counts.
Agree, a convenient idea for a house with a small area. Guests will appreciate the unconventional approach to this placement of shoes.
Kids room: DIY decor ideas
In homes with young children, parents try to create a special atmosphere in the rooms. Indeed, the younger generation has a completely different perception of the world. Children are not interested in gloomy monophonic and strict tones; they need bright colors, funny pictures, piles of toys. Therefore, the children's room is a completely different world - a world of fantasies.
Adults should not only consider their tastes. Creating an interior, one must be ready to build a whole city or a separate universe with one's own hands. Ideas for home should be implemented with your child. He’ll better tell you what he wants to see on his territory: a castle from bedspreads, a car fleet for his cars from cardboard boxes or a wigwam from sheets.
To complete the image, you can add the necessary elements to the walls. In construction stores you will be offered safe paints for the interior. Now brush in hand and go.
In addition to the usual colors, you can add fluorescent, and your picture will glow in the dark. It is not necessary to be an artist to create a new world in an area of just one room.
Just an army order in the kitchen
In many families, cooking takes quite a long time. Therefore, I want to reduce this process to maximum comfort and convenience. A properly organized space will allow you to do cooking with the greatest efficiency. On the Internet you can find dozens of useful tips on how and what to organize in the kitchen. Most often, these tips are directly related to the ideas for the home, embodied with their own hands. This can be the original shelves from the boards, the order on the shelves using stationery folders, and many others.
The most amazing thing is that there is no need to buy expensive materials in order to realize another idea. Sometimes it’s enough to take a drill from a neighbor (if you still haven’t got yours), go to a nearby hardware store and build an organizer on the wall in a couple of hours, as in the photo below.
The convenience of this design is that, firstly, everything is before your eyes. No need to crawl through the numerous lockers in search of the desired lid or scoop. Secondly, it takes up very little space in the kitchen, and this is an important factor for small areas. Thirdly, you free up a lot of space on the shelves, which can now either be dismantled or loaded with new convenient acquisitions for the kitchen.
At the bottom of the sea
It is often said that women in the bathroom can spend several hours, although this may apply to men to some extent. One cannot but agree, because this room is a place for relaxation, meditation of its kind. Therefore, there should be a peaceful, pleasant atmosphere.
Most often, bathrooms are made in blue tones, as an association with water (things that you can watch endlessly: how water flows, how fire burns and how others work).
For the right atmosphere, you can use decorative elements, make drawings on the walls - to realize ideas for comfort with your own hands.
In the house, the larger the territory, the greater the scope for imagination. But even in small squares you can create your own paradise of tranquility.
There is one caveat when arranging a bathroom - it is necessary to take into account the increased humidity in the room. If, for example, you are doing something from wood, cardboard, paper or similar materials, you will need to cover it with a waterproof or water-repellent coating. I do not want to later discover a damaged craft.
Spartan bed or bear den
The bedroom is the most comfortable and peaceful place in the house. Some people like a strict minimalist style, while others adhere to the position of the more pillows, lace, the better. In any case, everyone creates an atmosphere where it is easiest to relax and fall asleep. It can be a canopy above the bed, as in the photo.
You can arrange a memorial gallery to nostalgic and succumb to pleasant memories.
Everyone should decide for himself what suits him best: dark or light colors, warm or cold, a lot of additional furniture or only one bed.
Little island of happiness
It happens that you want to escape from household chores, all domestic problems and end up on a desert island. There should be a corner at home where you can sit with a cup of coffee or your favorite book, lie down and dream about something pleasant.
Such a place could be your balcony or loggia.
Firstly, in this room you can organize your workplace. You must admit that there is enough lighting during the day, no one will interfere with your presence, and you can completely immerse yourself in the creation of interesting needlework for your home or wardrobe, and work comfortably at the computer.
Secondly, the balcony can become a place for breakfast (especially if the view meets your wishes). A small countertop, a pair of bar stools - and voila.
Thirdly, here you can arrange a cozy nest for relaxation by placing an armchair or making a suitable sofa in size.
In any case, embodying ideas with your own hands, you create unique images of a cozy and sweet home.
