15 Thrifty DIY Projects Under $20

August 10, 2020 By Meegan 5 Comments

I have been blogging for awhile now. Browsing through my blog posts I have found 15 Thrifty DIY Projects Under $20 that anyone can do.

Each one can be tailored to your own taste. Some are from thrifted finds. Others are just creative crafts that anyone can design.

Not only have I done crafts and DIY projects since I have had a blog, but long before that as young child. I remember making a “thatched hut” from a shoe box for a school project, using flour and water as a glue for paper crafts, and cutting intricate snow flakes for Christmas to hang on our family front door. Then even designing my wedding reception in a new, fresh way.

Are you the same way?

All these years I continue to see how I can make something out of nothing. It keeps my brain active, my creative juices flowing and even my home decor stays fresh and updated.

Below you will find just a 15 of my favorite thrifty projects. I hope you like them as much as I have making them.
