🌿 Minimalist Home Projects You Can Make This Weekend - By JOJO

Simple, calming, and budget-friendly upgrades to refresh your space.

Minimalism isn’t just a style — it’s a lifestyle that brings clarity, calm, and intentional beauty into your home. And the best part? You can start this weekend! Here are some easy minimalist home projects anyone can try, no matter your skill level.

🪴 1. DIY Floating Shelves

Floating shelves are the perfect minimalist piece — clean lines, no clutter, and tons of functionality.

What You Need:

Project Steps:

  1. Sand the boards until smooth.

  2. Stain or leave natural for that Scandi vibe.

  3. Drill supports into the wall.

  4. Mount shelves and style lightly (plants + 1–2 decor items).

🌱 2. Neutral Wall Art Using Tape + Paint

Minimalist artwork doesn’t have to be expensive — create stunning abstract designs with just tape and paint.

How to Make It:

  1. Tape geometric or random lines on a canvas.

  2. Paint over with one or two neutral shades.

  3. Remove tape to reveal clean minimalist artwork.

🕯️ 3. Simple Candle Centerpiece

Minimalist design is all about calmness — and candles are perfect for that warm, cozy feel.

What You'll Need:

🌾 4. Declutter + Reorganize a Corner

Minimalism = intentional space. Transform just one corner to make your whole home feel lighter.

Steps:

  • Remove everything

  • Keep only essentials

  • Add one natural texture (bamboo, rattan, linen)

  • Finish with soft lighting

📚 5. Create a Clean Open Shelf Display

Open shelves look stunning — when styled with restraint.

How to Style:

  • Group items in threes

  • Mix natural textures

  • Leave empty space (very important!)

  • Use soft colors only

📸 Image Inspo:  Styled open shelves featuring ceramics, neutral books, and a                                               tiny plant.

✨ Final Thoughts

Minimalist home projects don’t need big budgets or complicated tools. In just one weekend, these simple upgrades can make your space feel airy, calm, and beautifully intentional.

Fabric Wall Decor: Transform Your Space with Texture & Style 🧵 - By JOJO

 Why Fabric Wall Decor Works Fabric wall decor is more than just “a piece of cloth on the wall” — it brings warmth, texture, softness and character into a room. According to interior-design sources: It adds texture and visual interest in ways that flat painted walls or framed pictures sometimes can’t.  It works across many interior styles — from boho and eclectic to minimalist and modern.  It can be installed in flexible ways (hanging, framed, stretched) to suit your space and budget.
