Inspire Your Joanna Gaines – DIY Fixer Upper Ideas

Pin to Pinterest

Who else can’t get enough of HGTV?  I get sucked in every time I turn to the channel, ESPECIALLY if it’s my favorite show, Fixer Upper! Chip and Joanna Gaines are adorable, fun to watch, and I’m admittedly head over heels for Joanna’s farmhouse-chic decor style. I sometimes catch myself fangirling over the hosts, but Joanna’s decorating skills are my favorite part of the show by far. If you love Fixer Upper as much as me, you’ve got to take a look at these DIY farmhouse decor ideas for your home.

Rustic, farmhouse, shabby-chic home decor is all the rage thanks to my favorite HGTV host, Joanna Gaines. Wondering how you can turn your space into the Pinterest farmhouse aesthetic of your dreams on a budget? We have gathered the best creative and crafty DIY Fixer Upper Ideas for all of your DIY farmhouse decor projects and cheap farmhouse decor inspiration needs. You will feel so proud being able to tell your family and guests, “No seriously, I did that myself!”

Floating Shelves

To start the party, I have to say this — you’re not Joanna Gaines yet if you don’t have Floating Shelves in your home. She loves to put them in the kitchens she designs, and they always look incredible. You can make these DIY farmhouse decor shelves so easily and on the cheap! We love this tutorial from Shanty 2 Chic. They have some other amazing farmhouse tutorials – take some time to browse their site for even more cheap farmhouse decor inspiration!

DIY Farmhouse Decor Thrift Store Finds

SprayPaintDishes-1014x2000

Farmhouse aesthetic pottery doesn’t have to break the bank. Head to your local thrift store ASAP and grab older pottery, dishes, etc and spray paint to get your desired look for the low just like Sincerely Sara D. This is so smart, and I love an easy painting project especially when it comes to cheap farmhouse decor. Just look for fun and creative shapes when you’re hunting for your pieces!

Green Wreath Distressed Window Frame

wreath-frame

This one’s a must, and a showstopper on your mantle. Simply lay a Green Wreath over a Distressed Window Frame like The Sweet Survival did. Once I saw this, I had to make one for my home! It has that perfect shabby-chic look.


DIY Shiplap Tutorial

If you know your Fixer Upper vocabulary, you know what I’m talking about when I say SHIPLAP! Check out this DIY Shiplap Tutorial from The Mountain View Cottage, even if you have no clue what a shiplap even is. And yes, you can dress up a nursery with DIY farmhouse decor, too!

Tobacco Basket DIY

Make Your Own Tobacco Basket with this easy DIY farmhouse decor tutorial on Craft Berry Bush. I had no idea you could make this cheap farmhouse decor on your own. Put it on your coffee table, fill it with aesthetic objects, or hang it on your wall!

DIY Farmhouse Table

Okay, NOW we’re talking. I can’t believe that Honey Bear Lane shared a way to create your own Farmhouse Table for under $100! We definitely need this for our family. Not only is it beautiful, but it has space to fit the whole family!

DIY Barn Door Tutorial

It doesn’t get more classically farmhouse than this DIY Barn Door from Jenna Sue Design. This DIY farmhouse decor idea is so great for separating an area from the rest of the home, like a laundry room!

Upcycled Farmhouse Table

I’m seriously loving this Upcycled Farmhouse Table. The details are adorable, and it looks way too expensive to be cheap farmhouse decor. Check out that chalk paint!

DIY Farmhouse Message Board

This DIY Farmhouse Message Board looks harder to create than it is. I found this tutorial on Seeking Lavender Lane. Not only is it the perfect farmhouse accent, but functional as well!


DIY Shutter Mirror

Take an Old Shutter and Turn It Into a DIY Farmhouse Decor Mirror, as shown by Love Grows Wild! Mirrors are one of my favorite additions to any room. They definitely help open up and brighten a space!

The expert herself blessed us with this DIY Succulents Centerpiece (Magnolia Farms). Succulents are the perfect plant to use for a DIY farmhouse decor craft, since they’re as easy to care for as they are gorgeous!

Rustic Arrow Wood Art

Follow your arrow wherever it points! Canary Street Crafts shows us how to create this fun Rustic Arrow Wood Art Craft. This is definitely a cheap farmhouse decor option, and you can even use upcycled wood to save extra.

Herb Chalk Paint Terracotta Pots

Grow your own herb garden for fresh herbs whenever you need them! I’m obsessed with these Herb Chalk Paint Terracotta Pots from Rustic and Woven. The typewriter font on the pots is a special touch that makes this DIY farmhouse decor really stand out.

Distressed Mason Jars

Did you know there is actually a Wrong and Right Way to Lay Subway Tile? Most DIY farmhouse decor makeovers involve subway tile, so you’ll want to bookmark this info for later. I got this chart from Ramblings from the Burbs. Who knew?!

    After spray painting old bowls, will they be safe to use and eat off of?!? Or is there a glaze or finish you need to use?

      It depends on the spray you get. I think most are used for aesthetic purposes (for show) but look for paint that is “lead-free” and “food safe”

    Congratulations: You have a beautiful place to live and enjoy your life ! As we age.we’re blessed to be able to recall victories over so many issues. Many of us have battled health issues and other forces and negative times. But with victory comes strength and optimism. I believe God blesses us daily and it’s up to us to find some and just recognize so many others. Recognizing your talents and being willing to learn and apply others will benefit you and others. Focusing on how to help others can make life more interesting and satisfying. Good Luck in your retirement. !!!

    Hi I love watching Jonna and Chip as I always learn something new from them both and I will be using some of the ideas to decorate my new home with. I am just packing up my old place for the move to my new home and I have gotten rid of a lot of things that I don’t want or use while I have been packing up each room and I hope that I will have enough room for everything to go into in my unit I will continue to watch your show on TV (I live in Australia and the show is very popular here.
