So, whether you’re a new homeowner, a long-time dweller, or just a dreamer, these crafty tips will add a personal touch to your castle. So, let's get ready to let your creative juices flow!

  • The Gallery Wall: Your Life, Your Wall

Are your family photos, vacation snaps, and cherished artworks gathering dust? It's time to give them a new life on a gallery wall. Mix and match frame sizes, colors, and styles to create a dynamic display. The best part? Every piece tells a part of your unique story!

  • Accent Walls: Be Bold, Be You

Who says you have to paint every wall the same color? Show your personality with an accent wall. Choose a bold color or a whimsical wallpaper. This simple change can turn a bland space into a vibrant room that screams "YOU."

  • DIY Planters: Go Green with Style

If your green thumbs are itching for a new project, DIY planters are the way to go. Transform old jars, cans, or even shoes into unique plant pots. Get the kids involved and make it a fun family project. Your houseplants will love their new homes!

  • Upcycled Furniture: Old is Gold

Ever thought about giving that old chair or table a new lease on life? With a bit of sanding and a fresh coat of paint, you can turn yesterday's yawn into today's yay. Upcycling is not only a creative outlet but also a nod to sustainability.

  • Handmade Throws and Cushions: Snuggle in Style

If you've been bitten by the knitting bug, making your own throws and cushion covers can add cozy vibes to your home. Choose yarns that match your décor, and soon you’ll be snuggling in style!

  • DIY Light Fixtures: Let Your Light Shine

Lighting changes everything! Swap out standard fixtures with DIY versions. Mason jars, old bottles, even baskets can be transformed into unique light fixtures that will certainly spark a conversation.


Remember, the secret ingredient in each of these DIY ideas is a pinch of imagination and a whole lot of love. So, go on, put your stamp on your space and make your home truly yours.


And remember, when you're ready to add those personal touches to a new house, or find the perfect canvas for your DIY dreams, NorthPort Funding is here to guide you on your mortgage journey.
