The best DIYs – cheap and easy solutions.

Published by:  AliciaH

Hi,guys! I thought that we can discuss here the best DIYs we’ve found on the internet. You know how as uni student it’s hard to save money, because everything is so expensive! So, sometimes it’s the easiest to make things by yourself. That way we can save money and have fun at the same time. So, I’ll start with a good one I recently found and already did – turning old plastic bottles into plant pots. It is very easy: you cut the bottle in half, place the top half upside down inside of the bottom half and put the plant in it. I like it,because this way you don’t throw out plastic and have a lot of space for plants as well. So what are your favorite DIYs?

Mine is not really a DIY but it’s a practical idea. Basically, instead of a nightstand or small table, you can just turn a wastebin upside down and use it as a table. If it’s ugly or something, you can add some tape to decorate it or paint it in a cool color. But it definitely saves money.

Good topic! I have a hack that is not very easy but its still very good. Instead of buying a new chair, you can save an old one by adding a new fabric to it. If your not good at sewing you can just glue it on but just make sure it’s a good and thick fabric. Otherwise it will fall apart or not stick well.

My favorite ones are about decoration. The last one I tried was super easy – just take some string and stick it to the wall with tape. On top of it stick polaroid photos. I did this with 5 long pieces of string and looooots of photos and the result is so pretty! You have to do it, such a nice way to decorate your bedroom :)

Here’s one – turn your old coffee and tea tins into desk organizers. Just wash them and you can use them to store pens and pencils.

I recently decorated my door with different colors tape. It was old and ugly, but with the tape it looks so much cooler! I just made it in a geometric design I saw online ;)

I recently turned an old chess set into a desk organizer. I flipped it, cleaned it up a bit and it was ready to store my notes.
