Why DIY?

Why do I DIY? Well, because it is fun!

There is actually more to that. Truth be told, my DIY journey started around 2010 after we moved into our house. We bought a lot more house than (1) we needed and (2) quite honestly, could not comfortably afford. But we wanted the “big house” so that’s what we got. #sillykids

Anyways, big house and little money left over meant we were broke for the time being. Having no money didn’t take away from my wanting a pretty home, but not wanting to get into debt meant it had to be done in a affordable manner. And so I met a little friend called DIY. 

I started with small projects here and there until a couple of years after when my husband, after seeing my passion for all things DIY, gifted me a starter tool kit set for Christmas and a compound miter saw on my birthday. I haven’t been able to stop. I love building things. If I see it, I love it, I build it! Just like that… Well, with a lot of trips to the home improvement stores, whole lot of choice words… and scratches… and spinter (damn, I hate splinters)… But when all is said and done it’s just a proud happy dance like kinda moment.

I believe that there is nothing you can’t do or figure out. You too can transform each room in your home to make it, well, yours! 

DIYing is both a blessing in a curse. A blessing because, you can make thiings!!! . A curse because you want to make everything and sometimes there just isn’t enough time (and money) for it all! 

Thanks for stopping by!
