Quick-and-Easy No-Sew DIY Projects Made for Your Home!

A site just gave out No-Sew DIY projects for people on the go. You can now make your home more lively and stylish without even if you're not skilled in handicrafts.

                Apartment Therapy just gave out the Ultimate Guide for Stitch-Free DIY Projects for those people who do not know how to sew yet dream of creating handicrafts for their home. If you are one of those people who are envious of those who can magically make fabrics into curtains, pillows, and other furnishings for the home and for your personal consumption, then fret no more!

                You can now easily have DIY projects like these and apply their No-Sew techniques to achieve that same look. These projects are easy, hassle-free, and less time consuming than the actual sewing. The site gives up different ways to make your fabrics stylish and functional.

                In their No-Sew Project list are the very basics in DIY like pillows, window coverings, beddings, and even lampshades! These are the usual household staples that are mostly in every room of the house. They give out simple techniques in making these things that would guarantee a clean and artistic finish.

                For pillows, the DIY No-Sew tips vary in 23 ways to make pretty pillowcases. One is the napkin envelopes that just lets you wrap your pillows in a somewhat origami-esque way. Others involve using felt glue, fabric glue, and hot glue. The same technique also applies for window coverings and bed sheets but what about the lampshades?

                It seems that the No-Sew DIY projects have made things more challenging by letting you make your own lampshades. There are lampshade kits that allow you to set up your lampshade and cover it with the fabric of your choosing. Since lampshades are supposedly hard, you can use Fabric stiffeners and draping liquid to let those fabrics stay put. No matter the approaches, it's just impressive what technology and a few ounces of ingenuity can do.
