What about that uplight?! #learnontiktok #hgtvtiktok #homedecorideas #boardandbatten

♬ Stranger - CHUNNYT

Cost: £13

Time: 30 minutes

Transform any room by updating just one part of it, as @gigibrown77 suggests a unique take on the feature wall with a feature corner.

Using just a little paint and a few pieces of wood, you can complete this project in around 30 minutes - you’ll also have plenty of wood left for other designs.

2. Hide cords without making holes in the wall

Easy way to hind cords and wires 🙂 #diy #diyhomedecor

Cost: £8

Time: 15 minutes

Wall mounting a TV is a great way to make your room feel bigger. The only problem is it leaves you with unsightly hanging wires or a big project where you have to cut holes in your walls.

But you can use this tip from @hammsmom and keep your wires hidden with a cable wall cover. You can also paint it the same as your wall to blend it in.

3. Build a DIY plant wall for just £15

2021 plant wall 💁🏻‍♀️🪴 I’ve made a new plant wall every year since 2019 so I’ve decided I’m making it a tradition 😆 #plantwall #plantsoftiktok

♬ SUNNY DAY - Matteo Rossanese

Cost: £15

Time: 10 minutes

#plantwall has over 16.9 million views on TikTok - it’s a popular trend that seems to be sticking around. They’re also easy to do. Just follow @_forthehome to see an amazing example.

You can find hanging plant pots online that simply screw into the wall. These are slightly more affordable if you’re looking for a cheaper option. The pots are also self-watering so when you fill them up, they will give your plant the water they need, when they need it, to avoid overwatering.

4. Make a DIY key shelf in 15 minutes for £5.50

The talented woodworker, @something_quaint shows you how easy it is to make a cool little key shelf with a few bits of wood you might have.

All you need are a few hooks, a circle of wood, a small length of wood and a tester pot of paint. Just cut the wood to the right length, attach them together and give it a coat of paint or two to make this handy key shelf.

5. Add under cupboard kitchen lights for £13

Cost: £13

Time: 10 minutes

Under cupboard lighting in your kitchen looks great, but it’s costly and will need to be installed by a qualified electrician. But using this tip from @livlovery can let you add lights in a matter of minutes. Just pick up some wireless LED lights for no-fuss installation and manage using a remote control.

If you have a smart home and would rather control your lights through Google or Alexa, an LED strip light is also available for just a few pounds more.

6. Create an eye-catching ombre feature wall using £10 paint samples

@annecastro.art shows us a simple way to bring the ombre trend into your home. The design should cost you about £10 for one wall by using a couple of tester pots for each different colour.

Just choose the colour you’d like, and add a few different shades to your wall going from dark to light - make sure you blend them in to make the most of the effect.

If your bathroom is looking a little worse for wear, just follow this hack from @sharee.designs to give them a refresh. A quick clean and a coat of paint can make them look as good as new - or even better.

Keep in mind, you’ll have to choose the right paint for your existing bathroom cupboards or the paint likely won’t last.
