DIY FARMHOUSE DECORATING IDEAS

If you are looking for DIY Dollar Store Farmhouse decor, you are going to find so much to love in this post!  One of my favorite things about decorating is finding cheap ways to create cuteness in my home.  Whether you are looking for projects for the living room, kitchen, or bedroom, there is a lot of eye-candy to choose from.

Decorating on a budget is not hard, but you do have to be creative…and don’t let that scare you!

One thing that I suggest that you do when you are figuring out your home decor style is to start a Pinterest board.  Simply begin pinning home decor looks that you like and that inspire you.  Do not concern yourself with the size of the homes or what might be trending.  If it catches your eye, pin it!

Do this over several days and you will start noticing a pattern in what you like.  It might be colors, types of furniture, textures, or the decor style.

Once you have noticed the pattern, keep pinning with that decor style in mind.  This will become your “vision board”.  You can check in to remind yourself the type of look you are going for because it can get confusing when there is so much to choose from!

Keep in mind that your home can be any style and color you want it to be.  You do not have to stick to typical farmhouse looks if what you want is a purple couch.  Create your own farmhouse look with the couch that makes you happy.

All of these tutorials and ideas can be used in your home or apartment.  They are cheap and easy ideas that you can use to add a touch of style to your home or redecorate the entire thing.

I suggest starting with your living room, if you are unsure where to start.  This room is generally the most used in the house and it feels really good to have a living room that reflects “YOU”!

DIY DOLLAR STORE FARMHOUSE DECOR

One great thing about farmhouse style decor is that, in general, there is a neutral quality to it.  In my own home, the background of each room is neutral (paint color and large furniture) so it is quite simple to redecorate. All I have to do is change out the decorative pieces (think accessories) and colors to create a big impact.

Switching out faux flowers (I use a lot of these in my home), wall art, knick-knacks, and pillows and blankets on the couch, makes a huge difference and it is not typically expensive.

Thrift stores, yard sales, and, of course, the Dollar Store all provide great items within your budget.  You will need to be patient though since those places don’t always have exactly what we are looking for at the time we want it.

Again, this is where your Pinterest board will come in handy.  Refer to it when you are shopping and purchase items as needed – even if you don’t want to use it today.  Consider seasons and what you might want to add to your home decor when seasons change.

Pink flowers, pumpkins, seashells, and items like that can all be put away until you are ready to use them.  This is a perfect way to spend less money and still keep up on your decorating goals.

The best way to dive into decorating is to simply dive in.  Some projects will be a success, and some will not, and that is just fine!  Decorating your home is not bound by a bunch of rules and there is no shame when a project does not turn out like you thought it would.

Always keep in mind that the crafts and projects you make are meant to bring joy to your life.  Set things aside when you feel frustrated or stuck and dig them out again when you feel creative.

And never forget that chalk paint can used to change the color of so many pieces in your house.  Furniture, metal, baskets, picture frames, and glass jars can all be made new with a coat or two.

This post gives you the basics on starting out with chalk paint.

The only step left for you to take is picking out a few projects and getting started!

Happy crafting!
