1. Vision Board
Dream big with your own vision board! Create a vision board to place on your wall. Not only is it a simple DIY project that can be fun to make, but it can help you achieve your goals. The book and film The Secret has helped in the increasing popularity of vision boards.
According to The Huffington Post, the book states, "The law of attraction is forming your entire life experience and it is doing that through your thoughts. When you are visualizing, you are emitting a powerful frequency out into the universe."
Embrace this visualization technique and create a vision board you are proud to show off and focus on. Use a springboard or corkboard to display photos, magazine clippings, drawings, music lyrics, quotes and more.

Customize your walls by splitting a photo into three parts. Grouping artwork together is trendy and adds flair to your space. The photo can either be personal or an image you like online. Although when you are arranging the artwork together, try to keep the photos the same size so they look symmetrical.
