Spring Decorating on a Budget!



I can't believe Spring is just around the corner! For weeks I've been working on creating DIY projects with you guys in mind. Per my usual style, I was determined to do this in the most affordable way possible without it coming across as cheap-looking.  I was able to decorate 6 areas of my home and, in total, everything cost me no more than $30 + only 2 trips to Michael's & Hobby Lobby!

You will need the following materials:
(Everything shown below was 40-50% off, ranging from $0.74-$3.59. I was able to use each piece for every project listed)



Mantel
Easy DIY Floating Mantel UNDER $20!!
Simply fill vases of differing heights and shapes with different colored flowers, greenery, and succulents. Pick colors and textures that contrast yet compliment one another.

I also intertwined vines along the top of the picket fence.

Kitchen Bar
For the center of my kitchen bar, I created this DIY Spring Flower Box, which I've dedicated an entire tutorial to linked HERE. I will also link my tutorial on how I made my flower trough for **ONLY $2** if you're interested HERE.  I incorporated cascading vines, a mixture of wild flowers, and succulent-looking leaves.

For the end of the bar, I filled my vase with lavender, and placed succulents & white buds in a glass bulb.

Kitchen Counter
I went very simple using white flowers with pops of light green, and another glass bulb filled with that same hue of light green succulents & white buds
I complimented the arrangement with cooking wine (also light green) and my wood pepper grinder.

Succulents on succulents :)

Kitchen Island
I used these two leftover pieces to fill my antique measuring tin.

I used (some of) these pieces to fill the mason jar and mini-water jug.

I was able to decorate 6 AREAS of my home for only $30!! That's a DIY Crafting win in my book :)
