Furniture Makeovers
Give furniture a new lease of life with our easy step-by-step projects. Learn how to sand, paint and stain tables, chairs, bookshelves, beds, cabinets and more. Repair cracks in timber, patch old veneer, reupholster chairs, and replace knobs or handles to update hand-me-down or secondhand pieces.
Holiday Projects & Craft
Celebrate the holidays and special occasions with DIY decorations. Deck out your home for Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Australia Day, birthdays and parties with our simple step-by-step decorating and craft projects. And make special gifts for Mother's Day and Father's Day.
Interior Design
You don't need to hire an interior designer to make your home beautiful. We share advice from the experts so you can create a space that works for your decorating taste and budget. With just little know-how you can make your home a functional place that is also a pleasure to be in.
Lighting
Set the mood with lighting. Choose the best types of lighting for each space, from downlights in living areas to a pendant light over a dining table. Install task lighting in kitchens and bathrooms, and use lamps as both functional and decorative items. Plus find out how to be more energy efficient.
Painting
One of the easiest and fastest ways to transform a home DIY is to use paint. We share expert secrets on choosing the right colours and how to get special effects. The key to a professional job is preparation, so get the right equipment and use our application techniques for the best results.
