Discover simple guides and sustainable ideas that make your everyday life more beautiful – from upcycled furniture to natural organization systems.
We are a small team of crafters, organization enthusiasts, and design lovers. Our goal: to show you practical, sustainable ideas for your home – without complicated instructions or expensive materials. Whether upcycling, natural organization systems, or small gifts from leftover paper: with us, you'll find inspiration that is truly achievable.
We rely on materials you already have or can easily obtain. Each project shows how something beautiful and useful can emerge from supposed waste – for a more conscious lifestyle.
„Make something new from old – with brains and creativity.“A tidy home brings peace and clarity. We show you how to structure every room with natural baskets, boxes, and inserts – without sterile minimalism, but with warmth and personality.
„Organization that pleases the eye and makes everyday life easier.“Whether gift tags from scrap paper, homemade decorations, or practical helpers for the kitchen – our ideas are quick to implement and bring real joy. Perfect for beginners and advanced crafters.
„Small projects, big impact – for more DIY in everyday life.“We believe in the power of community. Share your own projects, ask questions, and let yourself be inspired by others. Together, we make our homes more beautiful – step by step.
„Crafting, organizing, and growing together.“What started as a small blog has become a go-to place for creative minds. We share the key milestones and decisions that have shaped DIY-Kreativ.
With a simple WordPress theme and five self-written tutorials, we started in February 2018. The first week brought 47 visitors – friends and family. The focus was on upcycling projects for the home.
After one year, we reached 2,000 monthly readers. Three local craft stores offered us material packages in exchange for editorial mentions. This allowed us to test and document more elaborate projects.
In May 2020, we moved from the subdomain to tumbashed.com. The relaunch brought a new, sleeker design and clear categorization: Living, Organization, Gifts. The readership rose to 8,000 per month.
In September 2021, we started a weekly newsletter with exclusive DIY templates. Within three months, 1,200 subscribers signed up. The open rate consistently stayed above 45 percent.
Our article "Organization Systems from Natural Materials" was nominated by the German Creative Blog Award in the "Lifestyle & DIY" category. We expanded the team to three permanent authors and one editor.
