    Tired of the same old decor ideas?! There is nothing wrong with classic design staples, but sometimes we crave something a little more unique and something that reflects our personality. In today’s video I will share 14 DIY unexpected and unconventional home decor ideas that are sure to have people saying, “Wow, I’ve never seen that before!” I’ll be upcycling and repurposing found items, things found in nature, clocks, lighting fixtures, architectural salvage, on old picture frame, a large bird cage, thrift store items, and even something from Home Goods! I hope you’ll be inspired to create a home that is full of personality that you love! #home decor #diy #diyhomedecor #upcycle #repurpose #thriftflip

    WOW. I don’t even know where to begin! There are too many things about this video that I love! Keep the butterflies, so gorgeous. The birdcage with the books inside was stunning. The paper machete bowl was so pretty. All the lamps were amazing. Keep the birds gold, otherwise you wouldn’t notice them and noticing is what you want! I’d love another video like this with more unexpected decor ideas. Thank you for sharing.

    I don't want a cookie cutter home. I've always enjoyed having unique pieces for my home. I love your ideas. I have a worn out, weather beaten fence piece. I painted it like a flag. Well, a very worn flag. It's unique and I love it. It's big enough for 3 stripes and I have the perfect place for it.
    Unique pieces have your thoughts in them and a story. I can remember my mom telling us where she bought things from at a yard sale. It's funny because now I find myself saying the same stuff. We are all so different and I want my home to reflect my personality. I really enjoy what you do for your home and your inspiration. ❤

    My daughter sculpted a classmate's head in Terra Cotta clay. She gave me permission to paint it. Thanks for the idea, but I will go for a marble look with ivory and dark wax. I love the uniqueness of the butterflies in yours. I will tuck one into the hair of my sculpture after I paint it. (Terra Cotta is not a color in my decor, so I want to paint it.) I also brought my foyer light (lantern style like yoir back hallway) from my last house and filled it with a floral arrangement, adding seasonal touches on skewers. It is on my entry table.

    Yes I like the butterflies on the head better than the plant. Unexpected. And the birds should stay gold as it’s unexpected. Yes more unexpected styled videos. I think it goes along with a collected home. In my 20’s I had a coffee table made from a 5 panel door. But it’s taken me many years to get unexpected things in my decor. I just bought a very large H made from iron that was probably on a house. It’s chippy peely. It’s on my kitchen wall soon to be in my living room wall. I have a large colorful map of Iowa on my living room wall. Finally at 69 years old I want to decorate with more unexpected things. I’m having floating shelves built next to my fireplace to show off some of my collected finds. Keep em coming! The total eclipse in Dallas was amazing!

    Thanks for asking . Leave the birds gold. Adds character. As you say.

    I like big birds gold. They stand out. It's unique for sure. ❤

    Of course I would love more videos like this! My daughters and I enjoy watching them together. 😊 I love the birds gold on that light fixture- either as is or maybe slightly darker gold with a rub n buff perhaps.

    I like the green chandelier with the gold birds. I actually use gold as pops of color throughout my house so the gold birds look fabulous to me.
