ON MY RADAR - 12 TERRAZZO INSPIRED DIY'S.
/
Have you noticed that terrazzo is having a bit of a moment right now? Holly over on Decor described it as crazy confetti and I have to agree. It's crazy in the best possible way and I love it.
Traditionally used as a flooring it's begun to find it's way onto all sorts of things like doorknobs, tables, wallpaper and even yoga mats. If you've fallen in love with it even half as much as I have you might want to check out the 12 terrazzo inspired diy's I've rounded up below.
Have a great weekend.

How to Create a Terrazzo Print on Almost Anything
I remember around the beginning of the marble trend I was obsessed and made as many things into marbled versions as I could. Then, of course, it hit the mainstream and now you can buy everything your heart desires in marble. We’re not quite there yet with this new beautiful trend so why not get ahead of the curve?
Sew Easy: How To Sew a DIY Apron In 10 Minutes
It’s really much easier to make an apron than you might think, especially with this tutorial. It’s one of the most basic apron styles you can make. Which makes it the perfect beginner sewing project. But it’s also really cute! I feel like it would make a sweet (and inexpensive) gift for a friend or family member that likes to cook, bake, craft, etc.
DIY Terrazzo Earrings
Guys, Terrazzo is having a serious moment. Some of you have been on trend the whole time like Marwa over at Enthralling Gumption while some of us are just now dipping our toes. Either way, this Terrazzo Earring DIY is a foolproof way to add a bit of pattern and color to any outfit while using up that scrap clay pile.
What’s In The Box?
This little box can be used to organise your desk, hiding away rubbers, paperclips, sharpeners and the like or somewhere to store your earrings or keys. There’s always a need for another storage box in your life and this one looks so pretty to boot!
Terrazzo Style Clay Incense Holder
Grab a few coordinating colors that work well in most rooms in your home or just go with black and white. Or maybe just make one for each room? These have a lovely minimalist shape that make them easy to stack and store when not in use or to give to a friend as a housewarming present with your favorite type of incense.
DIY Terrazzo File Cabinet
For this DIY, it was clear to me that I wanted the colors and the careful composition of Max Lamb's Marmoreal terrazzo, so I downloaded one of the detailed photographs that they have on their website and printed it in a reprography.
DIY Terrazzo Style Slice Soaps
I’ve always been drawn to a random pattern. The control freak in me loves that you have a certain amount of control over creating this. You can choose the colours and concentration of the pieces but you just never know exactly how it’s going to come out.
Terrazzo Table
For this DIY, we therefore imagined a very simple coffee table in lines but with a terrazzo top. Obviously, we created it in shades of pink, but it's up to you to choose the colors you like. Before you start, we warn you, this is not the simplest DIY that we have offered you so far but, to have a homemade terrazzo effect, it's worth it, isn't it?
