Make a Curtain Headboard

Make a Curtain Headboard I’ve been wanting a bedstead to make my bed look smarter, but haven’t found one I like. Instead, I took a curtain sample I picked up from a home furnishings shop and hung it behind the bed. Very little work involved, and it makes my bedroom look super-smart.

Cover the Sofa

Cover the Sofa Sofa looking a bit shabby? Buy a fabric remnant and toss it over the sofa. I covered my boring (but free) leatherette sofa with a piece of chocolate fake fur I picked up for a couple of euros. No sewing involved and feels lovely to sit on.

Hang Fabric as Wall Art

Hang Fabric as Wall Art Want a cheap ‘painting’ to spruce up a plain wall? Buy a plain canvas, get a piece of patterned fabric (if you’re like me, you’ll have a stash you’ve been collecting), and staple it round the canvas. Hey presto, a work of art in minutes!

Paint!

Paint! Inherited some bookshelves or tables that you don’t much like? Give them a coat of paint. Don’t worry if the result is a bit rough, just pass it off as a shabby chicfurniture makeover.

Cover Your Dining Room Chairs

Cover Your Dining Room Chairs Dull dining room chairs? Cover them with some cool fabric. I got hold of some leopard print fake fur and turned my chairs from frightful to fab (yes, someone had deemed it a good idea to cover them in pink material with black spots. My eyes, my eyes!)
