DIY Gallery Wall

This apartment makeover collab with Lowes and our Executive Creative Director Anj is #gallerywallgoals. To tackle one on your very own, plan out your wall by cutting out pieces of craft paper the same size of your art. That way, you can play around with the layout while creating minimal nail holes. Then grab your picture-hanging kit, drill, level, hammer and nails, and get ready to put together the most epic gallery wall ever. (via Brit + Co)

DIY Color Block Napkins

Jazz up a set of plain napkins from IKEA with nothing more than a couple tubes of fabric paint and your color-loving imagination. For an on-trend set of napkins, embrace those pastels with a color-dipped look and modern black and white pattern on the other half. (via Enthralling Gumption)

DIY Marble Photo Holder

This DIY is made with one of the easiest craft materials ever: air dry clay.

To get major bonus points, make another set to gift to your Instagram-loving BFF or your mom for Mother’s Day. (via Burkatron)

DIY Hanging Egg Planters

Spring is all about hanging plants and flowers from the ceiling. These teeny tiny egg planters can be used as bud vases or for air plants if you want a look you can rock for a few months.
