I often get asked how I afford my tools. So I'm going to let you in on a little secret: I don't buy all of them/spend big bucks for them!

I found an amazingly gorgeous piece of wormy maple wood at a local lumber yard. I got it for my mom because she needs a new table over her washer and dryer. The last one ended up being, unfortunately, destroyed when we had to swap out her washer and dryer due to some poor decision making not on my part. So, I'm going to take you along with me while I turn this into a laundry room table.

We have a very awkward, narrow, and long side yard. I've talked before about my plans for it and how I want to change up the mulch and the mud and just add more space for us to be able to hang out here. Another thing that I wanted to do was to add a shed. I wanted a place to put our bikes and get stuff off of the patio that we have at the moment and be able to utilize that space.

I'm back again with another tool tutorial. Today we are talking about the Ryobi 15 AMP, 12.5 inch Corded Thickness Planer.

We've had our tile mat for over three years. Every time that I make a new tile mat design I get lots of questions about it. So I thought I would answer the FAQ for you here!

My daughter's current hyper-fixation is birds. She informed me about a month before her birthday party that she wanted to have a phoenix costume for her birthday party. So I decided that since we were doing spring break at home this year, we would gather supplies and work on it during spring break. Let me show you what we did.

Hi, I'm Emily. I'm a DIYer, and I also have ADHD, and my hyper-fixation the last few months is using epoxy resin on these gorgeous slabs of wood. I've learned a lot doing this and have worked on six different boards, and so I wanted to share the top six things I've learned so that you don't have to make the same mistakes I did!

Someone at my daughter's school discovered what I do and they asked me to help out with the set for the elementary school musical, Finding Nemo, this year. After spending some time with teachers and creative directors, we came up with some fun pieces using a variety of different materials. Let me show you what we did!

You know by now that I love tools that make my DIY experience easier. I've made it my mission to share easy tool tutorials as often as I can because we don't gatekeep around here! With that, let's talk about how to use a router and a router table.

It's March, which means spring is coming. You know what the change of season means? New tile mat ideas! I have a few colorful, joy-inducing designs I know you'll love. Let's get started!

I love being able to repurpose things, it fuels my creativity and I get to feel good about not buying new things. So, if you have any spring or Easter decor you're not currently using, but you need an idea of what to do with it, I have a couple of ideas for you!

I originally got a large piece of wood from the lumberyard to use for the headboard on my bed. However, I ended up going with a different piece of wood for the headboard. My mom asked me if I could take the unused piece of wood and make a custom mug holder for her. Let me show you how I did it!
