Three Easy DIY Projects That Anyone Can Accomplish

In This Article:

DIY projects are the best because whatever you end up making you will feel more proud about it since it is your sweat and blood that was put into it. There are millions of little projects that one can do to spice up their place. In the past two months, I have done three that are so easy that anyone can do it so I thought I would share. The process of creating something is fun too because you can put your own little spin to it to make it absolutely yours. So let's cut the small talk and get to work!

Outdoor Bar

This outdoor bar is cute, simple and cheap. All you really need for this is two wood pallets, two flat pieces of stone and paint and you are ready to go. You will drill the pallets together making it wider and then glue the stone on top of the pallets to create a flat surface. Before doing this although, I would paint the pallets whatever color you decide first so it is easier to get all parts of the pallets covered. I put a little spin to mine by putting lights through both pallets and painting a piece of plywood to put on the front of it.

Beer Frisbee

This is a fun game to play during the summer and is very simple to create. Instead of buying a set online which can be costly, make it yourself for half the price. All you need are two PVC pipes that you will place into the ground about 20 feet apart, a frisbee and beer! Think of this game as cornhole with two people on both sides of each pipe and all you are trying to do is get the beer on top of the pipe knocked down. It is a fun and easy game to create at any time.

Cloud Lights

This cloud light is perfect for a bedroom or anywhere in your house. It is easy to make and you can get all the materials at your local craft store. All you need is a paper lantern, cotton, LED lights, fishing line and a hook. These material will create a cloud light that makes your home just a little bit cozier. With using a fishing line, you won't be able to see the string so it will look as if the clouds are actually floating.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
