When it comes to home interiors, DIY craft is one of the ways to create eco-friendly decoration and furniture ideas. This can be accomplished by recycling old furniture to give them new finishing or by reusing things you’ve already owned at home for different purposes. You can also start thrifting at the local store to avoid purchasing new items.

Transform your old fabrics by stitching them together into a big and cosy quilt. You can reuse your assorted clothes with fabrics made of wool, flannel, and corduroy—but feel free to use whatever similarly weighted fabrics you have in hand. You can be more creative by combining different fabric colours with a similar hue.

Glass bottle are a quite a beautiful type of container to grow many of your favourite plants. A composition of bottled plants make excellent indoor focal points, especially when planted with colourful and different shapes of foliage. You can reuse your empty wine or champagne bottle or even those unused glass jars sitting in your kitchen cabinets. As an added benefit, plants are natural air-purifier, which makes a perfect ornament to be placed indoor.

Specific scent combined with a well-designed interior can totally improve the experience of being in a room. Create your natural aroma diffuser from things you already have at home like essential oils, dried fruit, potpourri and other aromatic natural materials. You can place them on a small tray or in a transparent jar that can also become a nice décor for your home interior.
