I started DIY Decor Projects because I wanted to share that feeling – the joy of making a space your own, one weekend project at a time. Whether you’re painting your first piece of furniture or reimagining a room on a budget, I want this site to show that it’s possible – and that it can actually be fun.

It’s not about picture-perfect homes or expensive makeovers. It’s about finding inspiration in what you already have, learning by doing, and feeling proud of what you create.

What You’ll Find Here

  • Step-by-step DIY tutorials and upcycling ideas
  • Budget-friendly decor tips for every room
  • Small-space styling inspiration
  • Before-and-after transformations that feel achievable
  • Plenty of trial-and-error honesty (and a few paint splatters)

A Little More About Me

I live in Perth, Australia with my family and a growing collection of tools, paintbrushes, and half-finished projects. When I’m not sanding or painting, you’ll probably find me at the beach or scrolling through home reno inspo with a coffee in hand.
