Garden bar – why not create your own garden bar where you can sit and enjoy a delicious drink and maybe some snacks during the warmer summer months. You can build these from the wood that you can source from the above company and can decorate them in a number of different ways. They are relatively easy to build and you can find some plans and videos on how to do this online.

Cushions – making your own cushions, whether this is through sewing or crocheting and knitting can be a wonderful way to give your rooms a little makeover. By having a number of different cushion covers you can alter the look of your room by simply changing them around depending on your mood and the season. For example some people like to have crisp vibrant colours in the Spring and Summer and may then opt for more neutral tones in the autumn and winter months.

Pictures – there are some great ways in which you can easily create your own painting and pictures. Some people choose to make collage out of their favourite photos or even create a canvas using their childrens art work. The list of things that you can create is almost endless.
