Ep 84: 2-Hour Decor Projects

Aug 20, 2019

Sometimes, we only have short windows of time and we want to actually accomplish something home-related in that window. The show today, is all about 2-hour house projects that you can do. We are here to inspire you to tackle a new project, start-to-finish!

We specifically talked about:

1. Bluetooth waterproof speaker that Ashley’s loving (and it’s under $40!). 
2. Portable bluetooth speaker that Suzannah and Jason have been using while working on projects
3. 2-hour or less projects: 
   1. Styling a vignette whether that be on a dresser, nightstand or media cabinet. 
   2. Change out dresser hardware. Examples: dresser/changing table, vanity (added holes)
   3. Give a poster frame a wood look
   4. DIY wall art on a canvas.. Examples: abstract ikat-ey painting, windowpane ribbon art
      1. Ashley loves these cork pads for plants (affiliate link).
   5. Split plants or change their vessels. 
      1. Great pillows, Suzannah made one that said HOME BODY with the Silhouette transfer machine years ago.
      2. Curtain hemming. Suzannah shared her IKEA tutorial here.
   6. Sewing for the Home
   7. DIY Bamboo Shade Hack
   8. Light Fixture Upgrades
      
      1. Even can lights or fluorescents can be replaced with a few extra pieces of equipment.
      2. Spray paint a light fixture. Check out this (formerly brass) pendant in Suzannah’s breakfast nook here. 
   9. Hang a gallery wall.
