Yippee it’s finally happening, time to tackle your DIY to do list. That’s right that DIY for (please fill in the blank) on your to do list. Yes, that’s the one, it’s going to be done, you’ve blocked out time to meet and conquer. You have been gathering paint samples, fabric and wood sample too. You have been clipping magazine articles and you even created a board on Pinterest. All essentials of a great DIY project. Now it’s time, you take a deep breath and chant your, “I can do it “ mantra and…well….
The paint samples are mushed, bent and in the bottom of your purse, I refer to mine as the great abyss ( that reminds me, I really have to share some purse talk with you soon.) The article you had on the bulletin board has been replaced by a rainbow-colored dinosaur chasing a chicken and the “To Do List” has what you can only hope is, ketchup on it….Okay no problem, you’ve got this. Take another deep breath and head over to Pinterest where, well let’s be honest, you will spend the next hour looking and pinning. Trust me, I know this “squirrel moment” very well. Pinterest is often where many DIY’ers go to discover that thing you never realized you needed. Or that trick, tip, hack or something pretty that catches your attention. Your mind is now a whirl of chaos and you have added two more projects to your to do list.
Let me just stop here and say ….Help is on the way!
I am very pleased to share with you the newest DIY must have, The DIY Home Planner written by my lovely friend KariAnne, blogger at Thistlewood Farms. I’ve shared her books with you before ( if you missed it please click HERE) and I’m excited to tell you about her amazing, One of a Kind, DIY Home Planner book. There are pockets for wrangling in the little things like paint samples, fabric pieces, etc. There are wonderful tips and instructions and tutorials for everything DIY from Space Planning, Flooring and even Accessorizing your home. She even includes a few encouraging picture pages you can tear out and frame. If that’s not enough to get you on your way. You can go HERE and go through the book with KariAnne as she takes you through the pages.
So, I’ve “squirreled” you away for just one more day or hour, so you can go to your favorite bookseller and get this wonderful DIY tool.
Or, and I prefer this method ( wink), click the picture here and buy it from me!
Please share with me what DIY you have to tackle on your to do list.
