DIY Spotlight: Lampshade

By far one of the easiest DIY projects I've seen! The possibilities are endless, since all you need is a decent piece of fabric and an old lampshade (or alternatively, you can buy one at a second hand store). The rest of the supplies you can pretty much find around the house. Definitely a project I'll be trying whenever I feel my old lampshades need a little oomph.

You can find the step by step instructions at It's Overflowing.

DIY Spotlight: IKEA Desk Makeover

This DIY project is so inspiring. I myself have an IKEA desk that could easily be upgraded like this. All they did was take a few pieces of wood and join them together to create that nifty squared pattern and then repaint the table. The entire project cost about $5 and it looks like a brand new table. You can't beat that!
