I started with a very simple straightforward project, a Modern Board and Batten wall in our guest bathroom. Once I had that one under my belt, I slowly started tacking new projects. I hope you are inspired by these ideas to take on fun DIY builds yourself!

Learning DIY skills can be incredibly beneficial for various reasons.
Here are a few:

Cost Savings: By tackling DIY projects yourself, you can save money on labor costs and potentially materials.
Personal Satisfaction: There’s a great sense of accomplishment that comes with creating something yourself.
Skill Development: DIY projects can help you develop practical skills like carpentry, plumbing, or electrical work.
Customization: DIY allows you to personalize your space and create unique items that reflect your style.
Problem-Solving: DIY projects often require problem-solving skills, which can be helpful in other areas of life.
Environmental Impact: By repairing or repurposing items, you can reduce waste and contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle.
Independence: Knowing how to do things yourself can give you a sense of independence and self-reliance.
