10 Wooden DIYs for Instant Cozy

You know when you come into a warm house at the end of a cold, rainy day? Maybe your hair is damp because it is still drizzling, and maybe you forgot a jacket because it’s an unseasonable storm. Either way, would’t it be incredible to come home to a house that was just instantly cozy? Here are 10 DIYs that will help your home have that EXACT feeling.

Personally, I would have never even considered using a recycled piece of wood as a window covering! But I love the rustic, cozy feeling that this window treatment creates. Plus, how perfect for afternoon naps; I’m sure the coverings block out any sunlight!

Living on the coast? If so, I might be a little jealous! Scavenge your local beach for a large piece of driftwood, measure the size of a set of tea candles and drill! It’s just that easy!

If you don’t live on the coast, you can buy something similar here!

Bring an axe, and head outside! This DIY project from Pinterest may channel your inner lumberjack, but aren’t the end results totally worth it?
