Leanne Ford is the queen of high-end DIY. “I had an old canvas lying around and couldn’t bring myself to throw it away…One day I nailed it to the wall and called my favorite artist friend Alexandra Grassik and asked her to bring me some charcoal. I asked her to draw whatever she wanted,” explains the designer. Reuse an old tarp you have lying around or buy a used tarp.

It looks sophisticated when professionally finished using clean, modern frames and arranged in a classic floor-to-ceiling grid. Take a look at this charming contemporary family room designed by Lily Bunn. Colorful art enlivens the entire space.

Skateboards can also be used as wall decorations if styled well. Here, Leanne Ford simply propped it up on a shelf and propped it up against a wall. Musical instruments and surfboards are also great examples of found items that double as decoration.
