The warm weather is finally here, which means it may be time for some of you to spruce up your apartment with some spring and summer decorations. While stores like HomeGoods can offer some great discounts, you may be able to save a few dollars and add to your crafting skills with these DIY apartment decor ideas.

1. Trendy rose gold wreath.

Who knew a hula hoop could make such a great floral wreath? The trendy rose gold mixed with the simple faux florals make this a great piece to welcome guests or to hang almost anywhere on your wall.

2. Rustic mason jar sconce.

Make just one sconce or arrange multiple on your wall to add a splash of color and springtime to your home.

3. Mini Easter egg succulent planters.

Plastic Easter eggs are either tossed in the trash or saved in a cardboard box until next year. Repurpose them into these adorable succulent pots! They're so small that they can be an accent in almost any place in your apartment!

4. Farmhouse pitcher centerpiece.

Find a cute pitcher at TJMaxx or Target and fill it with real or silk flowers for a cute farmhouse centerpiece. If you don't have a table or an island, display it on the kitchen counter or coffee table.

5. Flower letter.

Grab a hot glue gun and get crafting! A cute floral letter like this one could work as a door hanger or wall art. Personalize it with different flowers and accents. If you live with roommates or a significant other, have them make one, too! It would make a great addition to a collage wall.

6. Hexagon wall shelves.

These shelves are super modern and could be used year-round, but they are ideal for adding greenery around springtime. With cardboard being the primary material for these, the price tag stays relatively low for this DIY project!

7. Pineapple glasses.

Pineapples are always in for spring and summer. You can apply this design on different styles of glass too, like wine glasses for a summertime girls' night.

8. Punny welcome mat

Guests with a good sense of humor will enjoy this welcome mat, and it'll make you smile every time you brush off the dirt and sand from your shoes.

9. Indigo pillows.

Summer and tie-dye have gone hand and hand for me since I was a little girl. These pillows are an awesome way to go back to the fun of tie-dying your own summer camp shirts.


You don't need to make something totally different to decorate for the warmer months. You may be able to repurpose things you already have. Add a fresh, bright coat of paint or buy yourself flowers every once and a while.

Enjoy the warm weather, rain showers, and fresh flowers!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
