Pinterest Up Your Home SOS
Have you just moved into your new home? Or just decided itโs time to get going with that DIY project youโve been planning forever? Whatever your goal, hereโs 10 Pinterest Boards you need in your lifeโฆ
1) The Garden Fix
Whether youโre planning a flowerbed or a treehouse, get pinning your ideas onto a garden themed board. You can use both Rightmove or Pinterest itself to find beautiful homes to inspire you, and also get onto websites, like B&Q and Homebase, and pin products you might buy at a later date โ to keep all of your ideas and prospective products in one place! See some of our favourite ideas here.
2) The DIY Hacks
Planning to upcycle your furniture, make an old bed frame into a bench or even just make some home-made bunting? The skyโs your limit so pin away on all of the Buzzfeeda article and hack guides you can find on Pinterest! Then once youโve done all the hard stuff, you can add those quirky little touches. See some of our favourite ideas here.
3) The Spare Room Planner
If youโre lucky enough to have a spare room in your new home, you might want to incorporate a few passions and needs into one mega all-needs-covered spare room! See some of our favourite ideas here.
4) The Furniture Matcher
As in your garden board, browse the furniture stores and pin different sofa suites, your wooden furniture sets and garden furniture sets in line with the rest of your dรฉcor.
5) Save For Later
If youโve just moved in, we understand you might be a bit strapped for cash โ so why not make a โsave for laterโ board where you can plan all the dream features you donโt have the time or money for right now but you might integrate later! See some of our favourite ideas here.
6) Cater For The Kids Or Pets
From great home-made dog toy ideas to how to decorate your childrenโs den so they havenโt grown out of the theme by winter, pin a board for your little friends. Itโll help you match everything in there and give you lots of creative ideas so you can get DIY-ing yourself. Most importantly, itโll stop you splashing out little and often on all the treats you buy them and help you organise their space, instead of impulse-buy (we know you too well!!). See some of our favourite ideas here.
7) Space Hacks
We donโt all have lots of space in our new home but that doesnโt mean we canโt get Pinterest-busy creating a homely little space that fulfills our needs. Youโd be surprised how many hacks there are to make the most of your space โ so get yourself a board to collect them all before you start decorating.
8) Room-by-Room
Planning a DIY project in a specific room? Make a board dedicated to that room and whether itโs the nursery, the bedroom or the kitchen, you can pin all of the wallpaper patterns, furniture and equipment needed for the room in one place to make sure they match. This will save you two hours running back to the John Lewis returns counter when you accidentally buy five different shades of a colour for one room! See some of our favourite idea, by room, here.
9) Dรฉcor
Once youโve done the hard work and got all the basics covered, itโs time to indulge! Get on the hunt for cushions, bunting, plants, ornaments and more, to spruce up your new look!
10) Your Local Area
One last job โ once youโve sorted the home, youโll want to get out exploring the local area so have a root around for local parks, pub gardens, attractions and close-by towns you want to visit and you can work your way through them at your own leisure.
Well, thereโs the 10 Pinterest Boards you need in your life! From pre-planning, to DIY, to finishing touches, to getting out into the local area, make your home move as fun and easy as possible by keeping all of your ideas together in one place, with Pinterest.
