This time of year can be busy. There's a lot going on, plus it's dark and cold. But adding festivity to your space doesn't have to break the bank. ReStore is here to help spread some cheer! In the latest episode of DIY Friday at the WCCO studio, ReStore Manager Jan Hagerman shares fun, easy, and affordable ways to add some sparkle to your home this season.
Jan's tips focus on doing what you can with what you have (or what you can easily find) on a budget. Tap into your own creativity and see what you can make. Here are some of Jan's ideas:
Fill your home with things you love, like family heirlooms
Add festive features to things you already have
Make a cute tree with lampshades and paint
Craft a paper tree out of a magazine (this is a great craft for kids!)
Create a larger tree with lamp shade frames and ornaments, topping it with a doorknob
Whether you're making gifts for others or looking for something to display in your home, let ReStore be your first stop. Many of Jan's easy ideas use materials found at ReStore. Don't stress about perfection—you can add a touch of warmth without going over budget or visiting a mall. Visit ReStore's metro locations to get started!
