1. Hexagon mirror as statement wall art
Trying to find stylish and affordable wall art – particularly oversized wall art – is near impossible which prompted Misty to think outside the square and combine 5 hexagon mirrors. It creates such big impact and you’d never guess it cost only $60!
2. Woven baskets as kitchen storage
Talk about kitchen goals! Angela has used a selection of Kmart canisters and rectangle baskets to make the most of her open kitchen shelving.
3. Lamp as DIY wall sconce
Using a simple triangle design and several pieces of wood, Rox has taken the Kmart lamp to a whole new level! These wall sconces look so Scandi and chic, and certainly pass as a designer buy.
4. Wall shelf as jewellery holder
If you love dangle earrings, you’d know how challenging it is to try and find ways to store them – without having them tangle or become damaged. Katie found a clever solution using the Kmart wall shelf.
5. Shoe rack as kids grocery store
One of the most popular toys for young children is a play kitchen and/or grocery shop but with most store bought play sets costing several hundred, it can be a large investment to make – plus the cost of all the play foods and accessories! Clever mum of five made an epic playroom for her children, including a DIY grocery store using the Kmart shoe rack!
6. Wall shelf as coffee station
Short on kitchen bench space but want somewhere stylish and efficient to make your coffee? Consider turning a wall shelf into a convenient coffee station. The pockets are just the right size to fit mugs and canisters.
7. Fry basket as succulent holder
The trick to healthy and thriving succulents is good soil drainage and Melinda found the perfect solution to grow succulents at home – using a fry basket that she lined in sphagnum moss. So clever!
8. Shoe rack as additional kitchen bench space
Another idea if you’re short on kitchen bench space is to use the Kmart shoe rack. It doubles the amount of bench space while also offering side walls to rest chopping boards, knife blocks and other kitchen essentials against.
