DIY Home Organizing Projects 2016 Recap

I love transforming items and making them useful again. But, I don't just do any transformation.  I look for DIY projects that will help me organize the home. If you haven't seen my DIY home organizing projects, this post is just for you.  These eight DIY projects were created this year to better different areas of my home like the bedroom, the outdoor garden, the kitchen, and the craft area.  I shared all of these on HomeTalk.

If you haven't heard of HomeTalk and you love to do home crafts or improve your home,  you should check it out. It's a site that you can share your DIY projects, answer questions and save inspiring ideas for future projects. If you want to stop over there, feel free to follow me to see what I will be doing next year.

After reviewing my DIY organizing posts this year, I was surprised at how many I did.  Check all of them out here. Instead of sharing all the posts here, I am just sharing the most popular ones I shared on HomeTalk. I hope you like them.

Number 8: How To Upcycle Planters Into A Desk Pencil Holder - This one is an upcycle project that I made for my daughter's desk.  She loves to draw and had many markers and colored pencils in various zipper bags in her bedroom.  These planter boxes were found at a flea market in Maryland where I went for a mini-vacation with my cousin. Check out how I made it.

Number 7: DIY Beautiful Wall Planter easy and affordable: Wall planters are all the rage. They are ideal for small spaces to add color and life. This post was a project made from items I found at the hardware store, the craft store, and the dollar store.  It is used to display rooting indoor plants or to display flowers.

Number 6: Fun Cheap and Easy Practical Outdoor Gardening Ideas: Did you ever hear about bag gardening?  I tried it this year because it was affordable and assembly was easy. This one was a pretty big 4 foot in diameter garden so I could plant potatoes and string beans.  It worked and am planning on using it again next year.

    I love perusimg through Pinterest for inspiration for my clients. It's great that you've shared your favorite DIYs in one place here on the blog. Personally, my favorite go to is the wrapping paper station. Using vertical space is so efficient and this always surprises my clients 🙂
