Both crafting pros and newbies can learn how to turn five minutes, a few simple items, and their own creativity into stylish, personalized keepsakes. Each of these fifty crafts comes together in a snap with the simplest materials-paint swatches, twine, tag-sale ceramics-to create elegant and practical home decor that transcends its humble components. Whether it's re-creating designer jewelry with nail polish on an old necklace or fashioning sophisticated modern coasters out of bobby pins, these zippy projects are completed in no time. From Mason jars made into snow globes to an old suitcase turned into a side table, the inspiring ideas in InstaCrafts teach readers to "upcycle" junk-drawer clutter into stylish treasures. The super cute and surprisingly easy projects include:

  • Brick Bookends
  • Berry Personalized Stationery
