    I cannot believe it. 6 months in the making. Like what?? I mean. I knew I could do it. But as usual, I underestimated how much work was going to go into this renovation. There were so many new things that I learned including taking breaks to protect my mental health. Because ooph!! But wait!… Read the Post

    Modern Traditional Pantry Makeover
  • Cutting An Outside Corner with a Miter Saw

    The bathroom renovation is under way. I’m at that exciting stage where I get to make the walls pretty with chair and trim moulding. Eeek! The only problem is I had to contemplate ‘how in the world do I get these outside corners to work’! Spoiler alert — it isn’t the same as cutting inside… Read the Post

    This is my first ever wood mosaic. I am really proud of it, not because of how it turned out, but because it will be donated for a good cause. You can find out more about that on my instagram, but for now, let’s get to this tutorial. Don’t be alarmed –there aren’t too many steps… Read the Post

Colonial Style Window Frame

October 27, 2021

I’m not sure if these windows were once the style but the framing used is the most basic door casing ever. I might be being dramatic here because in reality the casing is okay (not really) but it def was not the vibe I was going for. It surely wasn’t going to work for meRead the Post

1940s Entryway Remodel

October 25, 2021

My entry is no grand foyer at all. It’s actually a vestibule that was added onto my home in the 1940s. At least that’s what I assume based on a matchbook I found in the walls. This tiny area is filled with massive amounts of wallpaper and cream everything with no sha-bang! Let me showRead the Post

Modern Radiator Cover

October 23, 2021

My sister asked me to create radiator covers for her sunroom. And I was so happy to do it because hers needed a major upgrade. If you check out the before photos, you’ll understand why (no shade!). They were rusted old iron covers that were holding on for dear life. Let’s fix that! Before youRead the Post

About Me

Meet Michelle

Hi, my name is Michelle and I am a self-taught woodworker, DIYer and plant lover. I'll thank COVID-19 for the plant loving part. My DIY and woodworking journey started in Fall 2018 after I purchased my old 1880s home. I started with building furniture that I didn't want to purchase from a store. From there, my building spiraled into creating custom projects for others. I now spend time building and also renovating my home. My goal is to show you that you can do it too!

🗣Listen!! Spraying outdoors isn’t always an o 🗣Listen!! Spraying outdoors isn’t always an option. This summer heat and humidity is a no-go for me and this paint. But you know I’m not letting that stop me. 

Best part is that this paint protection is less than $5 and be reused. A tarp will last a lot longer but heavier. And don’t forget to protect your floors!

TRUE STORY😂 Do you see my confusion? My husba TRUE STORY😂

Do you see my confusion?

My husband bought a new AC unit and didn’t want to screw the window guard on. He insists it’s not because he doesn’t know how, he just didn’t want to read the instructions (🙄). Ps- no instructions needed to be read. 

So we traded. He cleaned my garden mess. I spent 2 mins putting the guard in place. #balance 😅

Anyone else confused when seeing someone paint fur Anyone else confused when seeing someone paint furniture drawers in place? I was too. But I’m no pro. I could see it def made the job easier so I figured I’d try.

I kept the old knobs that I was replacing on one side of the drawers so that I could open them before the paint dries. I was concerned about the drawers sticking but now I know they weren’t. I’m going to hold onto these knobs to use for future pieces where I may be saving the knobs. Ill go back and use a brush to paint the drawer edges. I could’ve done it with my sprayer but I’m still trying to figure that out. Maybe next time! 

Disclaimer: While I’m not new to DIY, this is my first furniture flip! I’m excited to share what I learn w/ you 💞
