Designing solutions for your living spaces where you can “do-it-yourself” requires that you adapt to the resources that you have available.
Space
Do you have a dedicated space?
Or do you have to improvise on a patio or in a driveway?
Tools
Do you have any power tools?
A miter saw or table saw?
Specialty tools like a Kreg jig?
Skills
Have you done this before?
Ever fixed a loose hinge?
Time
Got a job, kids, and somebody else demanding your time? And does it seem like everything takes longer to finish that you expected?
If you motivation to DIY is based on filling a need other than artistic creativity, you need a design that is manageable with the space, tools, skills, and time that you have available.
This site is dedicated to creating projects that are designed to both fill a real need, and fit into real life.
