Interesting crafts in the house - a unique and simple decor

To make the interior cozy, it is not necessary to spend a lot of money. With your own hands, you can make a lot of stylish items or modify those that you bought in the store. It is only necessary to show patience and imagination. The mood in any interior is largely created with the help of decorative trifles. They can be expensive, from leading world designers, or they can be simple, made by yourself. The main thing is that there should be little decor, and all objects are combined with each other.

Choose material

In modern design catalogs and magazines you can see a huge number of interior trifles made from a variety of materials. They are made from:
  • a tree;
  • plastic;
  • metal;
  • porcelain;
  • ceramics;
  • natural stone;
  • tissue;
  • paper;
  • glass.
The choice of material depends on the style in which the interior is made. So, for rooms in a country style, Provence and eco, crafts made from natural materials are suitable:
  • a tree;
  • clay;
  • porcelain;
  • flax and cotton.
In the rooms in the style of minimalism, avant-garde, techno and futurism, other options for materials appear:
  • glass;
  • chrome steel;
  • matte or glossy plastic.
Those who create their own interior, it is recommended to get acquainted with the reviews of styles and only then select the details for your apartment.

Eco style and marine

Sea lovers, if desired, can make a marine interior or transform only a bathroom or bedroom. For rooms in a marine style will need:
  • white wooden frames;
  • shells and starfish in large vases;
  • glass bottles wrapped in twine;
  • decorative compasses and anchors;
  • watches in the marine theme;
  • vases with marine themes.
All this can be bought in the store, or you can create unique items with your own hands. An ordinary wooden frame can be painted with a white artistic primer and glued small shells on it. Photos and paintings that depict the sea and ships will fit into such an interior. The interior in eco-style can be decorated with objects from any kind of natural materials:
  • wooden vases;
  • bamboo stems in simple glass vases;
  • piles of flat black and brown stones;
  • large laconic photos of grass, leaf or tree bark;
  • straw mats;
  • driftwood of an interesting form.
For such an interior, you can do it yourself ikebana. In a vase or clay pot put dried flowers of various types, reeds, dry branches. All components must be in the same color scheme.

Oriental and loft interior

Compared to the restrained ecostiol, much more decorative elements appear in the eastern interiors. For such an interior fit:
  • velvet pillows with golden tassels;
  • copper wall plates;
  • ceramic vases with painting and gilding;
  • gold candle holders;
  • large artificial roses and peonies;
  • metal fruit vases;
  • frames for photos and paintings decorated with mosaics;
  • mirrors in gilded frames.
All these items are not cheap, but if you wish, some of them can be done independently. To do this, you need to buy bronze or gold acrylic paint, a patina and decorate with a dry brush a vase, a wooden frame or a ceramic candlestick. Detailed workshops can be found on the Internet. Loft-style rooms will decorate:
  • chrome watch;
  • metal flower pots;
  • wooden lacquered shelves;
  • iron lights;
  • large photos of urban development.
Flower pots and vases in the loft style can be made independently. Just take large metal cans of canned fruit, wash and cover them with a matte red, black or gray paint. Such a room will be decorated with glass bottles coated with plain acrylic. For a minimalist style, chrome wall clocks and figurines of geometric shapes are suitable.

Classic and favorite garden

To decorate the interior in a classic style, you can use:
  • porcelain figurines;
  • photos in wooden and glass frames;
  • ceramic vases;
  • pictures;
  • wall plates;
  • floor lamps and sconces;
  • sofa cushions;
  • Carpets
  • curtains with lambrequin;
  • caskets made of wood and stone.
Plates, panels and wall clocks in decoupage style, as well as papier-mâché vases, will fit into the classic interior. If you wish, you can sew pillows on your own or decorate wooden frames for photos. Even a small garden can be made cozy. Garden sculptures, bright wooden birdhouses, candles in clay bowls, lanterns, garlands, forged figures, a stylish metal thermometer - find a place for these things, and the garden will change. To make the interior or home garden cozy, you need to use all kinds of decorative items: photo frames, vases, textiles, garden sculptures. It is important not to get involved in choosing a decor, to know the measure and remember that many items for decorating the interior can be made with your own hands from inexpensive materials.
