What's a cozy home without adorable and unique accessories around the house? Home decorations give each room their very own mood and style -- and doesn't make the room dull and lifeless. Fill your kitchen with radiant potted flowers and your living room with paintings and modern, abstract pieces. But there is one downside to making your house a stylish one. The expenses to these pieces.

Yes, believe it or not, the simplest and smallest house accessory can cost double digits. Nearly no one is willing to drop $20 on a small mason jar to put flowers in for your dining room table. And when you're roaming around a home decor store and think, "I can make these," you can! In fact, you can make nearly any of those expensive home accessories if you have the right material, tools, and motivation. Not to mention there are home upgrades that can cost less than $100. You can also make your home look more expensive by creating your own decorations. If you don't know where to start, I have a list of great Pinterest crafts for home that you get to choose and get started on. Also, get creative for the autumn season.
