Curtains aren't cheap, and if you like to change them up frequently, your wallet can really take a hit. I wanted ikat curtains but didn't want to cough up the bucks, so I eventually found a great deal on fabric and sewed them.

You can use the same concept for a printer, though it may be harder to find a drawer large enough. Can you tell I don't like electrical clutter? Learn how here.
Since we just opened up up living room and dining room into one open space, we are going to have to paint. Our ceilings are quite low, and I've heard that half-painting a wall or leaving white stripe at the top gives the illusion of higher ceilings. Thoughts? via At Home In Love

This is a great one. Make a tiled mirror like one seen in Pottery Barn for $10 with supplies from the dollar store. See how here.
Paint those old vinyl floors? I have to admit, the results look amazing, but this one is obviously more involved, and you would want to research how durable it is before taking on all the work. Learn how here.
What do you think? Interested in trying any of these out?
