Basket make over
Put your own stamp on the sea-baskets by adding tassels and pompoms – throw in a fiddle leaf, and they’ll look like they’ve come straight from a beachfront holiday house. Minus the cost of an interior designer.

Midas Touch lamp
Give a golden touch to the pineapple lamp with some polka dots – just use a circle stencil and some gold spraint in a satin finish.

Faux wall garden
Fill the hexagonal wall boxes with fake succulents and you’ll have an indoor wall garden that’s impossible to kill.

Easy-access book case
The 3-shelved bookcase on its back makes a wonderful open bookcase for kids – just add wooden legs, like these ones from Bunnings.

Cork board feature
Fasten two cork placemats ($4 each) to the wall, and you’ve got a simple and stylish pin-up board.


@thebargaindiaries

Cheat’s side table
Team the wire pot rack ($5) with a marble look placemat ($2) and you have yourself a side table. Swap in a serving tray for placemat, for a new look tabletop, armed with edges.

Concrete-look stools
Take the concrete stools and spray the seats with @rustoleum_australia grey. You can leave the legs black, or for an all-white kitchen, spray white.
