We all have a crazy cat lady friend, so today I’m sharing 20 different DIY Ideas to make for the Cat Lady in your life. I would be more than happy to receive any of these items (yeah, cat lady here) and each item is pretty easy on the ‘ol budget. Home decor, jewelry, and more. Enjoy!
1) Create a paw print ornament from your furry friend’s foot, from Caught on a Whim.
2) Make a pillow from a photo of kitty, from The Band Wife.
3) These little cat face clips will work as shoe decor, or a hair clip. Looks cute either way. I provided a pattern for you to make this gift, from The Paper Mama.
4) Okay. I need to make this Kitty Rope Coil Basket for myself, from Hello Natural.
5) This hand painted cat face shirt looks like it’s pretty easy to create, from Minted Strawberry.
6) Create these cat face shaped string lights to decorate your tree, from Cakies.
