This Table Was Handmade With Just Wood Strips Human creativity knows no bounds. We can create anything we want as long as we have enough materials, time, and inspiration. Olivier Gomis, a professional woodturner for more than two decades showcases his talent and passion for his work in a short video explaining his work on this magnificent wooden table.Called The Wormhole, Gomis created a coffee table that was inspired by the space phenomenon of the same name. He handmade this piece with just wood strips, along with a lot of time, expertise, and patience. The table is shaped like a wooden plank that was bent and joined together by a double cone. This shape makes you think that it wasn’t really handmade, but it was! It can be done by creating different strips of air-dried walnut wood. Gomis glued them together with maple veneer sheets in between (which gives the appearance of the white grid lines). The strips were cut and joined at different angles to form the table’s bent shape. Check out how he created the table below! Image credit: Olivier Gomis#furniture #art #wormholes #art #OlivierGomis

The $100 Mural That Made This Bathroom Look Expensive There are certain steps that we can take to make our house look more expensive! Some of them can just involve our DIY and artistic skills.This is what artist and muralist Kelly Aiken of Copeley Designs did as she renovated her bathroom. She decided to add some accent walls to spice up the said room.Accent walls can be done to recreate a vibe of a luxury hotel room or store. Additionally, creating this kind of decoration on your own can lead you to add anything that you’d like. To create an accent wall for your chosen space, you just need to pick one side of the wall to paint a different color in comparison to the rest or do what Aiken did. For Aiken, she decided to paint a mural over the blank, citrus green colored wall. Wanting it to be a bit more glam and serene, she took the time to paint a mural with blended colors, textures, and a bit of shimmer to make the room pop, so to speak. It reminds us of the fancy, luxurious store windows we see. “I love to paint murals for my art business and thought I would try my signature drip and gold leaf wall look using colors from other rooms in my home,” Aiken shared. “I love this new twist to an accent wall. it creates more texture and depth in the room as well,” Check more before and after photos of Aiken’s work below! Image credit: Kelly Aiken #interiordesign #art #murals #roomtransformation #KellyAiken #accentwalls

Painted Headboard By Artist Nathalie LeteParisian artist Nathalie Lete is well known for her gorgeous and whimsical designs. She is said to take inspiration from nature and color. Her work often incorporates and honors the playfulness of vintage pieces, especially trinkets and toys.  The above image depicts a simple and uncluttered room. The drama of the space comes from the impressive mural headboard that Lete painstakingly painted. The shape of the design mimics the silhouette of grand bed frame. The actual woven heaadboard adds texture to the mural. The subtle colors of blues and greens appear again in the bedding. The painted flowers are a layering of subtle browns and more pronounced white. This room is a reminder of the impact of properly placed paint. The space encourages imagination. This bedroom is a declaration that lovely spaces need not be filled with grand furniture. #nathalielete #parisian #art #paintedwalls #mural #headboard #homedeocr

Perhaps, however, it's best described as a piece of art that doubles as a chandelier.  Cherry blossom-like flowers and branches weave about the top of the kimono.
