The lanterns are skillfully attached with a wire and hung on beautiful threads. The illuminated ladder creates a great atmosphere in the living room and creates a cozy atmosphere on the balcony on warmer days.
5. DIY candle holder made from bottles
These great candle holders are perfect for the minimalists among us. Do you have a few old glass bottles to hand? Perfect. Fill them with green shrubs of your choice, how about eucalyptus or a few branches from a Christmas tree? Now fill the bottle with water and press a beautiful candle into the neck of the bottle. The stylish candle is ready. The special thing: When you light the candles, the bottle is also decorated with the melted wax.
6. DIY decorative boxes made from paper boxes
Hand on heart. I’m sure we all have a few paper boxes – the leftovers from online shopping. But why throw them in the paper garbage can when you can turn them into cool decorative boxes? All you need is a pair of scissors, a large piece of string and a hot glue gun. Now glue the decorative thread all around and your stylish DIY storage box is ready.
7. DIY herb stick
Fresh herbs are great, but you often don’t have them to hand or forget that you have a basil plant or two on your balcony. With this great herb stick, you can dry your herbs and always have them to hand. And the cool decorative rod is also a real eye-catcher. First, attach a rod to the wall and fasten your herbs with a string. It is important that you always hang the herbs upside down. And voilà, your Mediterranean decorative rod for the kitchen is ready.
8th DIY wall shelf made from crates
The “upcycling” theme. Do you still have a few wine or fruit crates at home that you don’t want to throw away? We have an idea: give these cool crates a new look and mount them on the wall. This way, they serve as a stylish country-style shelf. Whether for the kitchen, bathroom or living room: you can place a lot of things on the cool wall shelves and create a special atmosphere.
