If you want to put up some sweet posters, but you're in an apartment where you might get charged for damages, this method incorporating small magnets is worth a try. No more nasty holes in the wall.

Terrariums are having their biggest moment since Queen Victoria was in power. A popular way to exhibit plants in the late 1800s, terrariums, called "Wardian Cases" in the Victorian era, were elaborate affairs that could take up an entire side table. These days, the smaller, simpler iterations line the windows of trendy shops and office desks. Here's how to build your own for a fraction of the cost of those fancy kits.

I honestly expected these all to be Pinterest fails. There are so many gorgeous Easter egg techniques out there -- and so many Pinterest tricks that fall flat -- that I was shocked these seven actually worked. (Can't say the same for these natural dyes, though.) Six were foolproof and one, the nail polish marbling, gave mixed results -- but when it worked, it was jaw-droppingly good.

Hanging items on a nail isn't hard, but it's always tough to hang something you can't see. You need the string to thread the nail, but not the wooden frame itself. You could photocopy a template, but your poster or painting might be too big. A simple fork can make the job easier.

Can you really make dyes in all colours of the rainbow with vegetable scraps and other earthy organic things? A ton of Pinterest posts claim that you can. We wanted to be sure. So we tested some of the recipes and found that some work beautifully, while others just give you different shades of brown.

These days, it seems there's a cookie cutter for every season and holiday, but I just don't have the storage space for Santa hats, hearts and pretty autumn leaves. Luckily, there is an elegant (and free) way to get cute leaf-shaped cookies: Just gather them from nature.

If you haven't watered your Christmas tree since you forgot about it on Boxing Day, now is the time to get it out of your house. Unwatered Christmas trees are a huge fire hazard, as this video from the US National Fire Protection Association clearly shows.

There is a certain nostalgic charm to stringing popcorn into festive garlands, but it's not the only treat you can decorate with. To add colour (and sweetness) to your Christmas tree, string some lollies up there too.

You want your bedroom to be a relaxing retreat that you return to at the end of the day that encourages deep, restful sleep, and shields you from the blinding sun. We've talked about how to do this before, but this graphic wraps a few of those tips into a simple, easy to follow package.

Slicing the top, rounded portion off of a cake before frosting gives it a smoother, more professional look. To make removing that top crumbly layer even easier (not to mention smoothly frost the sides), just pop it in the freezer first.

Nobody wants to live in a cramped living space. In addition to making you feel suffocated and boxed in, it can also reduce the perceived value of your house. While you might not have the money to renovate, it's still possible to make your abode look larger via clever decoration. Here are seven affordable enlargement hacks to try; from placing furniture away from windows to utilising mismatched cushions to break up repetition.

Your home gym might be in the corner of a boring area of your house, but it doesn't have to feel like it is. Creative use of mirrors, lighting and dividers can make your workout spot a pleasant and interesting place to be.

You might not own your place, but you still want it to feel like home. Problem is, a lot of apartments are bland and cookie-cutter. As a renter, you can't exactly take down a wall or upgrade the appliances in your kitchen. There are, however, a few easy, landlord-friendly upgrades to make your rental feel more like home.

Why put all that effort into collecting amazing vinyl records when nobody can see the beautiful artwork? These easy-to-build frames will show off your favourite albums in style.

Some of this year's cheeriest holiday decorations look great, but use lasers or other focused light projected on the side of your home for a stunning display. But they can be dangerous if you accidentally have them aimed skywards, where they can blind pilots of low flying planes or helicopters, or be mistaken for laser strikes.

There's nothing wrong with a Charlie Brown Christmas tree. But if your tree is looking a little bare and you want to add some lushness, a string of garland will do the trick.

Your dining room rug should be large enough to fit your table and chairs, but also offer enough buffer room behind the chairs so you'll never snag chairs or trip. If you're on the hunt for a new rug, remember the magic measurement: 91cm of clearance behind pushed-in chairs.

There's a lot of work that goes into laying out a beautiful home. Art can help jazz up the place, but the last thing you want is a nice print that clashes with your room's colour theme. ColorSearch can help.

A little colour can work wonders to liven up a room. If you're looking to decorate a room with a splash of colour, use the "rule of three" to pull it all together.
