If you’ve started 2023 determined to try some home projects in the next twelve months, then you’ve come to the right place!
We believe that starting small is the best way to get into any habit, project or goal, which is why we’ve listed four home projects that will be simple, quick and easy, but still fun for the whole family to enjoy. Whether you’re looking to start making some serious changes in your home or simply get into a DIY home renovation hobby, beginning with one of these projects will help kickstart your year.
Start a Veggie or Herb Garden
We’re pretty sure everyone has said “I want to start a vegetable garden” at some point in their life, and now is the perfect opportunity to actually do it. planting your own vegetables and herbs is easy – you can find all the info you need online and get started as soon as spring rolls around.
The whole family can get involved and you’ll all reap the rewards when those fresh, juicy tomatoes land in your salad! Do your research, buy the gear you need and plan it carefully. Make sure that you grab some heavy duty trays and other durable equipment to give your plants the best shot at thriving.
Create a Gallery Wall
If you’re more of an indoors person, don’t fret – we’ve got you covered. There’s hardly any home project that’s easier than hanging a few frames, right? That’s why this project is a great starting point. It doesn’t take too much skill or equipment, but you still need to plan it carefully, take some measurements and spend a little time perfecting things.
Your gallery can be inspired by loads of different styles, sizes, colour schemes, etc. and this feature can be an incredible addition to your living space or bedroom – especially if you have a large, open wall that’s begging for some décor.
Flip Some Furniture
If you’re looking for something a little craftier, then a great idea would be to buy some second-hand furniture pieces and give them new life. Furniture flipping is a creative hobby that most people find to be really easy and accessible.
In this way, you’ll be able to learn and practice your home DIY skills without any worry of causing permanent damage to any actual fixtures in your home. You can get really creative and either style your revamped items at home or even resell them for a profit!
Repaint the Walls
Finally, if you’re looking for something to impact your house a little more directly, then a simple, quick fix for any tired-looking room is a fresh lick of paint. Changing up your wall colours or adding a feature wall with some interesting patterns can be a really fun project and make a huge difference to the space.
If you’re renting and can’t make any serious changes, you could use temporary wallpaper instead, which can look just as good and give you that fresh, new feeling!
