Have you ever looked around your house and realized that, even though you’d bought or made and displayed fantastic decor pieces in some rooms, others have gone a little bit neglected in your interior decorating efforts? We had this experience recently with our kitchen and decided that it’s high time we made some fantastic kitchen appropriate pieces to give the room a little more character, especially since we spend so much time in there. Sure, we could have bought some pieces in stores that fit the colour scheme and such, but we’ve always found the process of making our own DIY decor a little more fulfilling, no matter what room it’s for.
