2. Hexagon mirror as statement wall art
Trying to find stylish and affordable wall art – particularly oversized wall art – is near impossible which prompted Misty to think outside the square and combine 5 hexagon mirrors. It creates such big impact and you’d never guess it cost only $60!

Talk about kitchen goals! Angela has used a selection of Kmart canisters and rectangle baskets to make the most of her open kitchen shelving.
5. Shoe rack as kids grocery store
One of the most popular toys for young children is a play kitchen and/or grocery shop but with most store-bought play sets costing several hundred, it can be a large investment to make – plus the cost of all the play foods and accessories!

9. Caddy hack
There’s more than meets the eye with this clever Kmart hack that Alanna made. She says it was an easy weekend job that required no power tools as she used the existing screws and holes.
“I wanted the caddy the same height as the bath so moved the tiers up and cut the legs to height. Then used the original top tier as a lid and now have somewhere to store my lady things,” she explains.

Struggling to contain kids toys in your house? Alana gave the outdoor bench from Kmart a stylish makeover by painting it a soft grey and applying timber letters to the face. “It fits so many toys in,” she says.
