DIY Home Decor from Ruche

Throw open the shutters, sweep out the dust bunnies, and ready the tool set, it’s spring again! Time to freshen up the nest with a little crafty resourcefulness. Mai of Ruche shares her tips and tricks for these fabulous DIY home decor projects using everyday materials. Learn how to make shelves out of books, create a floral wall out of butcher paper, and use milk paint to get that old-timey look. I especially love her tip for using cornstarch paste to apply fabric as wallpaper. When you’re ready for a change, just peel off the fabric and throw it in the wash — it comes out like new!
