20 Awesome DIY Home Decor Ideas on a Budget

We often spend so much money on our interior decor, and why not? Ultimately, it defines who we are and gives our space a personality. But what if we tell you that with a little effort on your part, your home can look just as gorgeous, and most importantly, you can have it for half the price!


No one has really done decorating their home because there's always something new you want to add, change something, or update something. You can do all of this with DIY home remodelling. DIY room decoration ideas allow you to add your own originality and style to your home without spending a lot.


Whether you're planning on selling your property soon, or you just want to enjoy a few simple upgrades, there are many ways to boost your home improvement ROI (return on investment). However, it is important to note that not all home improvements are created equal.


It's a great way to personalize a space and make a home feel really like home. With that in mind, we're so excited to show you some of our favourite ideas today and we can't wait for you to try out some of these great DIY projects. Let's get started!

Simple and Affordable DIY Room Decor Ideas for Your Home


1. Billy Ball Yarn Flowers Bouquet for Room Décor

I love flowers but I find it very inconvenient that they wither quickly, and you can't really enjoy them for very long. Fake flowers are a great option, but most try so hard to look real that they are disappointing. That's what makes this adorable Billy Ball bouquet so interesting. It has an identity of its own.
