Easy DIY Projects

    Let me just start out by saying that I do NOT have a workshop, or the proper tools for anything, really. What I do have, is the desire to make the things around my house just a little bit better, and the tenacity to overcome my lack of tools. Everything I post on this page has been done with a few basic tools and a lot of imagination.  Click on the pictures for step-by-step instructions.
