7 DIYs to Try This Weekend

I’ve been really into summer lately — the bright colors, the refreshing drinks, and all the creative projects that come with the season. The warm weather makes me want to craft, decorate, and try new DIY ideas every weekend.

This week’s roundup of DIYs is all about summer vibes: beach-ready looks, vivid hues, and easy projects you can tackle in a day. Here are seven fun DIYs to try this weekend:

1. DIY rainbow flowers – a cheerful, colorful floral project that brings a playful pop to any table or mantel.
2. Shibori-dyed textiles three ways – classic indigo-resist dyeing demonstrated in three approachable techniques for pillows, napkins, or table runners.
3. Glitter-dipped sunglasses – add sparkle to a basic sunglass frame for a fun, festival-ready accessory.
4. Sequin summer beach bag – a shimmering tote that’s perfect for beach days or poolside lounging.
5. DIY cake piping inspired by woven wall hangings – a creative cake-decorating technique that mimics textured fiber art for show-stopping desserts.
6. Tropical-print DIY notebook – a simple, stylish notebook makeover using tropical motifs for a summery, handmade journal.
7. Modern DIY hand mirror – a sleek, contemporary handheld mirror you can customize to match your décor.

Each of these projects is approachable and designed to use bright colors and simple materials so you can finish them quickly and enjoy the results all summer long. Whether you want to refresh your accessories, decorate your home, or try a new crafting technique, these DIYs offer something for every maker.

Wishing you a creative, sunny weekend filled with color and inspiration.
