Are you into mid-century modern home decor style? A few accents in this style certainly add a lot of charm. So do these DIY hairpin furniture projects.
If you think about mid-century modern, the first thing that comes to mind is the hairpin legs of the furniture. They are sleek and attractive. They make the furniture look thin and occupy less visual space. And it makes a lot of sense to add such a piece of furniture to a room if you want to create an accent.

Good thing you can get the look for pennies on the dollar if you DIY. And the following creative and rather simple project ideas will help you do that. Check these out!
